teleport_entities: true
send_no_destination_message: true
send_disabled_portal_message: true
portal-auto-link-when:
  nether:
    prefix: ''
    suffix: _nether
  end:

    suffix: _the_end
worlds: {}

Option Reference

bounceback

Default: true

When a player steps into a Nether portal and has no valid destination (e.g. no linked world exists and the naming convention doesn't match), they are pushed back out of the portal instead of being teleported to the vanilla nether. Set to false to let Minecraft's default portal behaviour take over instead.

teleport_entities

Default: true

When true, non-player entities (mobs, minecarts, etc.) that enter a portal will also be teleported according to Multiverse's portal rules. Set to false to restrict teleportation to players only.

send_no_destination_message

Default: true

When true, a player who steps into a portal that has no configured destination receives a chat message explaining there is no destination. Set to false to suppress this message.

send_disabled_portal_message

Default: true

When true, a player who steps into a portal that has been disabled (e.g. a world linked to itself) receives a chat message saying the portal is disabled. Set to false to suppress this message.

portal-auto-link-when

Controls the naming convention used to auto-link portals between worlds. When a player enters a portal in world X and no explicit link has been set with /mvnp link, Multiverse-NetherPortals looks for a world whose name matches the pattern defined here.

nether

• prefix — String prepended to the world name when searching for its nether world. Default: '' (empty).
• suffix — String appended to the world name when searching for its nether world. Default: _nether.

So by default, portals in world survival auto-link to survival_nether.

end

• prefix — String prepended to the world name when searching for its end world. Default: '' (empty).
• suffix — String appended to the world name when searching for its end world. Default: _the_end.

So by default, portals in world survival auto-link to survival_the_end.

Example: To use a nether_ prefix instead of a _nether suffix:

portal-auto-link-when:
  nether:
    prefix: 'nether_'
    suffix: ''

worlds

Default: {}

Stores the explicit world links created by /mvnp link . You should not edit this by hand — use the command instead.
