# How to setup Nteleportation Plugin for Rust

NTeleportation by nivex adds the teleport commands players expect on a modded server: `/sethome` and `/home`, player-to-player teleport requests with `/tpr` and `/tpa`, and warps to Outpost, Bandit Camp, or a custom town. Everything is gated behind permissions and tunable cooldowns, so it scales from casual PvE to carefully limited PvP.

This guide assumes Oxide is installed. If not, start with [How to Install Oxide](/knowledge-base/rust/how-to-install-oxide/).

## Step 1: Install the Plugin

1. Download `NTeleportation.cs` from [umod.org/plugins/nteleportation](https://umod.org/plugins/nteleportation).

2. In the File Manager on your [Rust server hosting plan](/games/rust-server-hosting/), upload it to `oxide/plugins/`.

3. Watch the Console for the loaded confirmation.

## Step 2: Grant the Player Permissions

Nothing works until permissions are granted. For a standard setup, give the default group homes and teleport requests:

```console
> oxide.grant group default nteleportation.home
> oxide.grant group default nteleportation.tpr
> oxide.grant group default nteleportation.tpa
```

The most used permission nodes:

| Permission | Unlocks |
|------------|---------|
| `nteleportation.home` | `/sethome`, `/home`, `/removehome` |
| `nteleportation.deletehome` | `/deletehome` |
| `nteleportation.tpr` | `/tpr`, sending teleport requests |
| `nteleportation.tpa` | `/tpa`, accepting teleport requests |
| `nteleportation.tpb` | `/tpb`, return to your last location |
| `nteleportation.tptown` | `/town` warp |
| `nteleportation.tpoutpost` | `/outpost` warp |
| `nteleportation.tpbandit` | `/bandit` warp |
| `nteleportation.admin` | Admin functions, staff only |

> [!WARNING] Never grant `nteleportation.tp` to players or the default group
> That node is the free-form admin `/tp` command and lets a player teleport anywhere instantly. The plugin's own documentation says so in capital letters.

## Step 3: The Commands Players Use

| Command | What it does |
|---------|--------------|
| `/sethome name` | Save your current position as a home (must be on your own foundation) |
| `/home name` | Teleport to a saved home after the countdown |
| `/home list` | List your saved homes |
| `/removehome name` | Delete a saved home |
| `/tpr PlayerName` | Request to teleport to a player |
| `/tpa` | Accept an incoming request |
| `/tpb` | Return to where you last teleported from |
| `/town`, `/outpost`, `/bandit` | Warp to the configured locations (if granted) |

> [!TIP]
> To set the town warp point, stand at the spot as admin and run `/town set`.

## Step 4: Tune Cooldowns and Limits

The config at `oxide/config/NTeleportation.json` has a block per teleport type (Home, TPR, Town, and so on). The knobs that define your server's feel:

| Setting | What it controls |
|---------|------------------|
| Cooldown | Seconds between uses of that teleport type |
| Countdown | The warmup delay before the teleport fires (interrupted by damage) |
| Daily limit | Uses per day, 0 for unlimited |
| Homes limit | How many homes a player may save |
| VIP settings | Most blocks include VIP variants with shorter cooldowns and higher limits, gated behind their own permission nodes |

PvE servers commonly run short cooldowns and generous limits. PvP servers usually keep a meaningful countdown so teleporting out of a fight stays risky, and pair the plugin with NoEscape to block teleports during raid and combat (see [Popular Plugins](/knowledge-base/rust/popular-plugins/)).

After editing, reload:

```console
> oxide.reload NTeleportation
```

## Common Issues

| Problem | Fix |
|---------|-----|
| Players get "NotAllowed" | Missing permission node for that command. Grant it to their group |
| Players can use /tp freely | You granted `nteleportation.tp` broadly. Revoke it from the default group immediately |
| /sethome refuses the spot | Homes must be placed on a foundation the player owns, away from monuments |
| Teleports cancel mid-countdown | Taking damage interrupts the countdown by design |
| Homes vanished after wipe | The config option to wipe homes on a new save is enabled, which most owners want |
