Basic examples

/tp @p 0 64 0: teleport nearest player to coordinates.
/tp Steve Alex: teleport one player to another player.
/tp @a ~ ~10 ~: move all players upward relative to their current position.

Coordinates

Use absolute coordinates for fixed places and relative coordinates with ~ when running commands from a player or command block.

Warp systems

A simple warp command can be built with command blocks, buttons or functions. For public servers, check permissions before letting players run teleport commands.

Teleport to a player, coordinates or a relative position

Common TP command patterns

Goal	Command
Teleport yourself to coordinates	`/tp @s 100 64 -20`
Teleport to another player	`/tp @s PlayerName`
Teleport all players upward	`/tp @a ~ ~10 ~`
Teleport the nearest entity	`/tp @e[sort=nearest,limit=1] 0 64 0`

Why a teleport command may fail

The player name or selector matches no target.
The destination chunk or dimension is unavailable.
The command uses Java syntax in Bedrock Edition or the reverse.
Relative coordinates were evaluated from a different executor or command block.

When using /execute with teleport, confirm both the executing entity and execution position.
