🧠 Safe Teleport System

Never teleports players into dangerous blocks such as:

Lava

Cactus

Powder Snow

Portal blocks

Other configured hazards

Checks:

Feet & head are passable

Solid ground below the player

No dangerous blocks nearby

Performance capped (max checks per teleport)

🛟 Rescue / Anti-Suffocation System

If a player somehow still ends up in danger:

The plugin automatically searches for a safe location within ±10 blocks

Rescue triggers on suffocation damage

Rescue is active for a short time after using /lastlocation

⚔️ PvP / PvE Combat Cooldown

/lastlocation is blocked while the player is in combat

Combat includes:

PvP

PvE

Projectiles

Damage events that are cancelled by other plugins

Cooldown behavior:

Resets every time the player hits or gets hit

No spam messages while in combat

Message is shown only when the command is used

Example:

combat:
