Prevent Teleport (Power Type)

Stops the entity from being teleported. It catches every route: /teleport, the spectator menu, ender pearls and chorus fruit, endermen escaping, portals and end gateways, and every Apoli action that moves an entity, such as apoli:teleport, apoli:random_teleport and apoli:teleport_to.

Type ID: apoli:prevent_teleport

Fields

Field	Type	Default	Description
`entity_action`	Entity Action Type	optional	Runs on the entity each time a teleport is blocked, once per blocked attempt. Useful for a sound or a message.
`prevent_dimension_change`	Boolean	`true`	Whether portals and end gateways are blocked too. Set it to `false` to leave normal travel alone and only stop teleports within a dimension.

Examples

{
    "type": "apoli:prevent_teleport"
}

Nothing moves this entity except its own legs.

{
    "type": "apoli:prevent_teleport",
    "prevent_dimension_change": false,
    "entity_action": {
        "type": "apoli:play_sound",
        "sound": "minecraft:block.note_block.bass",
        "pitch": 0.5
    },
    "condition": {
        "type": "apoli:status_effect",
        "effect": "minecraft:slowness"
    }
}

While the entity has Slowness, nothing can teleport or pull it, but portals still work, and each blocked attempt plays a low bass note.

note

An action that would have teleported the entity still reports failure, so the fail_action of apoli:teleport, apoli:random_teleport and apoli:teleport_to_location runs. Use it to tell the player why nothing happened.

warning

With prevent_dimension_change left on, a player in the Nether or the End can't walk back out through a portal. Give them a way home, or put the power behind a condition they can clear.
