can rtp command be made smarter?
« on: January 20, 2018, 05:19:19 pm »
Last night, I was on a resource hunt and since I can't get my elytra to activate reliably, I was using the /rtp command to jump around the server looking for different biomes and resources. (Don't judge me, I know a lot of us do it...)

Anyways, I had all my gear on me (mending picks w/ silk touch and fortune, a nice axe, sword with looting III, my elytra, decent diamond armor, etc) as well as 3 shulker boxes full or resources plus what I had in my inventory still (lots of podzol, ferns, ice, and other stuff). I did one last rtp command and it took me into a lava pool where I promptly died.

Now, I've heard this doesn't destroy your items if you use the /back command to get back to it, but since it was in lava, I knew I'd die again instantly. So I did a /home to get to my house and grab a water bucket and ender pearls, then a /back to take me to my death point. Let's just say I learned the hard way that /back takes you to the last point you warped from, and not back to your last death point as I thought it did. I have no idea where I was, and needless to say this was very frustrating, but I'll recover eventually.

It was my own dumb fault for getting greedy and using rtp to jump around, but I was wondering if I could throw this out to the admin team to give it a little more logic so that in the future, it doesn't dump you in a lava pool. I've also nearly suffocated a few times when it drops me in a 1 block high space. And 3 of 5 times, you'll land in the middle of the ocean.

Is this something that would be possible to refine?

I know this can be really annoying. That's why I have a fire potion on my spawn plot, I chose one close to the windmill spawn location for this reason. Then I can just run down the hill, grab my pot and do /back. I also always have a pickaxe handy whilst rtp-ing to dig my self out quickly. Just incase.

I would also like to see if it's confirmed that /rtp can take you to - coords. Instead of x:100 z:100 have it also include x -100 , z -100, and x 100 z -100 in combination.

Sorry about the death and your items. Only hope is the chunks unloaded and your items will remain in that lava pool until 5 minutes have passed there.
