XP Teleport

Players pay for travel with experience levels rather than items or commands. The cost grows with distance on a logarithmic curve, calibrated at 5 levels per 100 blocks and capped, and the world border is set at 30 levels. Each trip starts with a warmup: the player must stand still, take no combat damage, and watch a countdown shown on the action bar before the teleport fires. The mod adds no cooldowns by default, so repeated trips can follow one another without a delay, and the delay itself can be configured.

The mod also works with shared waypoints. When a waypoint is posted in chat, a clickable gold Teleport button is attached to it, and the mod intercepts coordinate-based vanilla teleport requests, redirecting them to a prompt that shows the XP cost and requires the player to type CONFIRM. Operators at level 2 or higher pay no XP and teleport instantly, bypassing the warmup. Players can also send XP directly to each other with the xpgive and xprequest commands, so trading levels does not need a separate bar.

XP Teleport is built for NeoForge and is published for 1.21.1 only, under the MIT License. The mod is open source and its source code is public. It is server-side only, so players connect with vanilla clients, and the config file is generated automatically on first launch with comments that explain each setting. The mod is intended to replace standard teleport mods on the server without requiring client-side patches.
