Introduction

In Multiverse, we have included a handy new in-game help system. To access this help, simply type /mv. In order to properly read this command reference, we'll walk through reading the "usage" of a command.

Command Case

Whenever reading this wiki or the in-game /mv help, you should remember that items in ALL CAPS should be replaced with a variable. Items in lowercase should be typed exactly how they appear.

Optional vs. Required Params

Items inside square braces ([]) are OPTIONAL where items inside (<>) are REQUIRED

Simple command example

Let's look at a simple one first:

/mv info [world]

This means that this command has one optional parameter, meaning you could type /mv info or /mv info world . Obviously, the command will do different things with or without its params. You can tell what those effects are by reading this wiki.

Complex command example

Let's look at the most complex example:
NOTE: This is the most complex command in MV2 and in order to use it correctly, please refer to the Create Command .

/mv create <name> <environment> [--seed <seed> --generator <generator[:id]> --world-type <worldtype> --adjust-spawn --no-structures --biome <biome> --generator-settings <json>]

At first, you will notice that there are 2 required params, name, and environment. Then you will see the flags afterward. If you want to use a seed you must add --seed gargamel to the command string. If you want a generator the same principle applies: --generator BukkitFullOfMoon. The order of flags does not matter. Full examples of this command are located at the Create Command reference .

Flags

Many commands in Multiverse use flags, these can be one or two dashes. Two dash flags are whole words (e.g: --filter) and one dash flags are shorthand versions of the same thing (e.g: -f).

There are two flags that you will come across quite a lot: --filter and --page. These are used for filtering and selecting the page respectively of a paginated command. FYI, pagination does not apply when running from the console.

Create Command

Description

The create command allows you to add new worlds to your server. Each world has many properties that you can edit and tweak. Please see the World Properties page for information on each of these settings. In addition, you can modify worlds in game by using the /mv modify command. Please see the appropriate section below for Seeds or Custom Generators .

Usage

/mv create <name> <environment> [--seed <seed>] [--generator <generator[:id]>] [--world-type <worldtype>] [--no-adjust-spawn] [--no-structures] [--generate-bonus-chest] [--force-spawn-position <x,y,z[:pitch:yaw]>] [--biome <biome>] [--generator-settings <json>] [--properties <prop1=value1,prop2=value2...>]

java

<name>: The name of the new world. You can also pass a namespaced key (e.g. myplugin:myworld) to give the world a stable identifier.
<environment>: The environment of the new world. Must be one of normal, nether or the_end.
--seed <seed>: The world seed to give to the generator
--generator <generator[:id]>: The custom generator to use
--world-type <worldtype>: The type of the new world, can be one of the below.
- amplified
- flat
- large_biomes
- normal
--no-adjust-spawn: Sets the Adjust Spawn world property
--no-structures: Set this flag to disable structures from spawning
--generate-bonus-chest / -c: Generate a bonus chest at the world spawn on creation. This setting is retained if the world is later regenerated. Requires PaperMC 1.21.5+; has no effect on Spigot or older Paper versions.
--force-spawn-position <x,y,z[:pitch:yaw]> / -f: Force the world spawn to a specific position rather than letting Minecraft pick one. Pitch and yaw are optional and default to 0. Requires PaperMC 26.1+; has no effect on older servers.
--biome <biomeprovider[:id]>: Sets the biome provider for the world.
--generator-settings <json>: Sets the generator settings for the world. Only applies to superflat worlds. See PaperMC docs for more information on the format.
--properties <prop1=value1,prop2=value2...>: Customize multiple world properties on world creation. Example: --properties pvp=false,portal-form=none

World Name and Environment

When you are going to create a new world you MUST specify a name and environment. Your world names CANNOT have spaces in world names, use the Alias Feature for that.

You can also pass a namespaced key (e.g. myplugin:myworld) as the name. Any name containing a : is treated as a namespaced key and gives the world a persistent unique identifier separate from its folder name. Where the world folder is stored differs between Paper 26.1+ and Spigot/older Paper — see Creating worlds with a namespaced key for details.

Seeds

You can create a world with a custom seed by adding --seed SEEDNAME after the 2 required params. Here is an example that creates the famed gargamel world and names it mountain_world:

/mv create mountain_world normal --seed gargamel

World Types

World types are like generators, but baked into Minecraft itself! Currently, there are only amplified , flat , large_biomes and normal world types. To use a world type, simply use the --world-type flag, here is an example for a flat world. These are only effective on normal environment worlds. /mv create flat_world normal --world-type flat

Biome

Multiverse have built-in support for single biome alike to the option in Vanilla . The flag is --biome @single:<biome>. For a full list of available biomes, see Biome List .

Generators

Multiverse supports Custom Generators. What does this mean? We support any plugin that makes use of the Bukkit custom generator feature. If an author has implemented their own style that does NOT use the custom generator method described here , it may not work with MV. We will try and keep an updated page of Custom Generator Plugins .

Once you've found a plugin you want to use, copy the jar of that plugin to your plugins folder. Then all that's left to do is type a single command:
(For this example I've decided to use BukkitFullOfMoon which will generate a cratered moon world by @Dinnerbone).

/mv create moon normal --generator BukkitFullOfMoon

The BukkitFullOfMoon above is the plugin name. This plugin only has one generator, and it's defined correctly, so the :GENID isn't needed. Some plugins may contain multiple generators, in which case you would type this: (This next one I'm making up entirely...)

/mv create land_lake normal --generator WaterWorlds:Lakes

/mv create hell_lake normal --generator WaterWorlds:LavaLakes

A note about spaces in world names

You should know that if you decide to use spaces in your world name that whenever people want to use /mv tp , /mv modify or any command that takes the world name as a param, they will have to surround the name in quotes, like so

/mv tp "My world name with spaces"

/mv tp My world name with spaces will NOT work.

Examples

/mv create my_world normal
/mv create my_hell nether
/mv create my_cloud_world --generator SkyLandsPlus normal
/mv create flat_world normal --world-type flat
/mv create My-Seed-World normal --seed gargamel
/mv create moon normal --generator BukkitFullOfMoon
/mv create custom-world-with-a-generator-and-an-ID normal --generator BukkitFullOfMoon:Dinnerbone
/mv create custom-generator-world-with-seed normal --generator BukkitFullOfMoon:Dinnerbone -s gargamel
/mv create example normal --generator "BananaGen:hilly,tscale=35.0,terrainheight=15.0,notorches"
/mv create adventure_world normal --properties gamemode=adventure,portal-form=none
/mv create survival normal --generate-bonus-chest — creates a world with a bonus chest at spawn
/mv create my_world normal --force-spawn-position 0,64,0 — forces spawn to X=0 Y=64 Z=0
/mv create myplugin:pvp_arena normal — creates a world with namespaced key myplugin:pvp_arena

Delete Command

Description

Unloads a world from the Bukkit server, removes it from the MV configs AND DELETES the world folder. This command will destroy the life, universe and everything associated with the world you pass as a parameter. For this reason, this command requires /mv confirm .

You now have 30 seconds to type /mv confirm [otp] with the correct OTP or the world will NOT be deleted.

Usage

/mv delete <world> [--remove-players [destination]]

java

--remove-players [destination] / -r - Remove players from the world before deleting. If this flag is not specified and players are still in the world then the command will error. You can optionally provide a destination to send players to instead of the default world (e.g. --remove-players lobby or --remove-players e:hub:0,64,0).

Examples

/mv delete myworld - Deletes the world myworld
/mv delete myworld --remove-players - Deletes myworld and sends players to the default world

The help command now supports searching! This means if you type /mv help del you will see a list of all commands whose name, description, alias(s) or usage contain 'del'. These results may be paged, depending on how long your search string, so to see another page of a search simply do: /mv help del 2.

NOTE: When searching, if you try: /mv delete you will see the syntax for the Delete Command. This is because you have hit the nail on the head with your search: you typed the exact name of a command!

Here is an example use of the Help command while given OP status. This example also has Multiverse-Portals and Multiverse-NetherPortals installed, which is why there are 5 pages.

Import Command

Description

The import command is almost identical to the create command apart from the fact that it is used to import a world folder that already exists. Since the world already exists, you cannot apply a new seed to it, however currently you MUST provide the correct environment AND Generator for the imported world. If you do not, bad things will happen to your world.

Usage

/mv import <name> <environment> [--generator <generator[:id]>] [--adjust-spawn] [--biome <biome>]

<name>: The name of the world to import. Ensure it matches the folder name on your server files.
<environment>: The environment of the world.
--generator: Specify the generator previously used for the world.
--no-adjust-spawn: Sets the Adjust Spawn world property
--biome: Specify the biome provider used previously for the world.
--skip-folder-check: Skips the check to ensure world folder is in the correct format.

/mv info [world] [--page <number>] [--filter <string>]

java

Examples

/mv info
/mv info world

Permission

List Command

Description

The list command will only show you the worlds that you have access to enter. For example, if you are blacklisted in sky but not in world and world*nether, when you type /mv list you would see:

====[ Multiverse World List ]====
world - normal
world_nether - NETHER

null

This allows you to have worlds that are completely unknown to people. Keep in mind though, if you're in a world that someone else cannot view, and you chat from it, your chat prefix would be of that world. Here is an example of a world listing.

Example World List

Note

To get colored worlds, you will need to use the world alias feature .

Usage

/mv list [--raw --page <number> --filter <string>]

Set Spawn Command

Description

The set spawn command does exactly what it sounds like. You can walk to where you want players to spawn, type /mv setspawn and it's set. To go to the spawn you can use /mv spawn . If you would like to run this from the console or specify a location anyway just add your location in the format: [x],[y],[x],[pitch],[yaw]. Pitch and yaw are optional and will default to 0,0

Usage

/mv setspawn [location]

java

[location] - In the format: worldname:x,y,z[,pitch,yaw]. World name can be omitted if running in-game. Example: 10,64,100,90,180

Examples

/mv setspawn (in-game only)
/mv setspawn testworld:0,0,0
/mv setspawn 10,64,100,90,180 (in-game only)

Permission

multiverse.core.spawn.set

Spawn Command

Description

Allows you to teleport yourself (or another player) to their own current world's spawn. If you want to teleport a player to a different world or different location within a world please see /mv tp . This command does tell the teleportee who teleported them, even if it was the console. This is done to prevent admin abuse.

Usage

/mv spawn [player(s)] [--unsafe]

java

[player]: The player to teleport, or defaults to yourself. Must be specified if running from the console.
--unsafe: allows teleportation even if the location is deemed unsafe.

Examples

/mv spawn
/mv spawn lithium3141

Aliases

/mv spawn ...
/mvspawn ...

Permission

multiverse.core.spawn.self.[worldname]

Teleport Command

Description

Allows you to teleport yourself or others to a specified world or destination. There are many different permissions associated with this command, with the categories being self and other; allowing you to teleport yourself and others respectively.

Each Type of Destination will have each of the permissions (self and other) associated with it. The most basic example is for worlds:

multiverse.teleport.self.w
multiverse.teleport.other.w

null

The letter(s) at the end are the identifier for the destination . This is the same thing you would put before the destination if you teleport to it: /mv tp w:MyWorld. So Portals would be:

multiverse.teleport.self.p
multiverse.teleport.other.p

null

Even if you have the multiverse.teleport.other.w permission, you can only teleport people to worlds where YOU can go yourself. This will allow you to teleport a player to a world that they themselves cannot go to, as long as you have the permission to do so.

Destinations

/mvtp works hand in hand with Destinations! See also: Destinations

Usage

/mv tp [player(s)] <destination> [--unsafe]

java

[player(s)]: the player(s) to teleport. Leave empty to teleport yourself only.
<destination>: the destination to teleport to. See Destinations
--unsafe: allows teleportation to unsafe destinations

Examples

/mv tp world
/mv tp Rigby90 world_nether
/mv tp Rigby90,Jeb_,Notch world
/mv tp @a b:playerbed
/mv tp Jeb_ e:world:70,64,0:90:90

Aliases

/mv teleport ...
/mv tp ...
/mvtp ...

Permission

multiverse.teleport.self.<dest-id>.[finer-permission]
multiverse.teleport.other.<dest-id>.[finer-permission]

The optional [finer-permission] suffix is the specific destination name (world name, anchor name, portal name, etc.). Whether it is required depends on the use-finer-teleport-permissions option in config.yml :

true (default for new installs): Both the base permission and the finer permission are needed. For example, to teleport to world_nether a player needs both multiverse.teleport.self.w and multiverse.teleport.self.w.world_nether.
false (default when migrating from MV4): Only the base permission is needed (e.g. multiverse.teleport.self.w), granting access to all destinations of that type.

Destination	Base permission	Finer permission
World (`w`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.w`	`multiverse.teleport.self.w.<worldname>`
Anchor (`a`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.a`	`multiverse.teleport.self.a.<anchorname>`
Exact (`e`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.e`	`multiverse.teleport.self.e.<worldname>`
Player (`pl`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.pl`	`multiverse.teleport.self.pl.<playername>`
Cannon (`ca`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.ca`	`multiverse.teleport.self.ca.<worldname>`
Bed (`b`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.b`	`multiverse.teleport.self.b.<playername>`
Portal (`p`)	`multiverse.teleport.self.p`	`multiverse.teleport.self.p.<portalname>`

Replace self with other in any of the above to allow teleporting other players.

World Border Add Command

Description

Increases (or decreases, with a negative value) the world border size by the given amount. An optional transition duration causes the border to move smoothly from its current size to the new size.

Time format

All time parameters in world border commands accept three formats:

Format	Meaning	Example
plain number	game ticks (20 ticks = 1 second)	`200` = 10 seconds
`<n>s`	real-time seconds	`10s` = 10 seconds
`<n>d`	in-game days (24 000 ticks each)	`2d` = 2 game days

Note

On Minecraft 1.21.11+, the underlying world border API accepts ticks directly. On older versions, tick values that cannot be expressed exactly in whole seconds will produce a rounding warning.

Usage

/mv worldborder add <size> [time] [world]

java

<size>: The number of blocks to add to the border diameter. Use a negative value to shrink it.
[time]: How long the transition should take. Defaults to 0 (immediate). See the time format table above.
[world]: The world to modify. Defaults to your current world in-game.

Examples

/mv worldborder add 100 — immediately expands the border by 100 blocks
/mv worldborder add -200 60s — shrinks by 200 blocks over 60 seconds
/mv worldborder add 500 200 — expands by 500 blocks over 200 ticks (10 seconds)
