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.

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.
