JetLag

✈️ Jet Lag: every teleport has side effects

You type /home. You land. You hear a hiss.

Jet Lag turns every teleport on your server into a gamble. /tp, /tpa, /home, /spawn, /warp: any of them can leave you next to a charged creeper, in the middle of a ring of lit TNT, 60 blocks in the air with a water bucket... or, if you're lucky, upgraded to first class.

Made for friend servers where chaos is the point. Server-side only: nobody installs anything.

🎲 12 ways to ruin a trip

Event · What happens
💥 · TNT Ring · 4 lit TNT spawn in a circle around you. Run.
⚡ · Charged Creeper · A fast, charged creeper lands right next to you
🪂 · Sky Drop · You arrive 60 blocks too high, holding a water bucket. MLG or die.
🔨 · Anvil Rain · Look up.
🌩️ · Lightning · Zeus hates teleporting
🚫 · Fake Ban · A huge red BANNED on screen... just kidding
🎆 · Fake Creeper · Hiss behind you... and it pops into fireworks
🐔 · Chicken Party · You land in the middle of 12 chickens
🧭 · Wrong Destination · GPS failed: you fall out of the sky next to another player
🧳 · Hotbar Shuffle · Your luggage got mixed up
🥴 · Drunk · Nausea and slowness. Classic jet lag.
💎 · First Class · The rare lucky outcome: free diamonds and fireworks
