Then, the new player should type <code>/ott <target_player_name></code>. The new player will be teleported directly to the target player if successful.

When a player accepts a One Time Teleport, they retain only the items given to them when they first join.
OTT comes with several caveats. When a new player OTTs, they lose all their items except those given to them automatically when they first join. This is to prevent alts from abusing OTT to raid or kill other players easily. Also, no notifications are sent to either player about the OTT, so some other form of communication (such as /tell) should be used to communicate instead.

== Command Reference ==
It is possible to teleport between [[shards]]. The main reason to teleport to a different shard is if you want to OTT to a nation in the [[New World]]. You can also teleport to the aquanether shard, but there is not much reason to do so as there are no nations there currently.

One Time Teleport (OTT) is a plugin occasionally included on Civ servers, which allows a player to teleport to another player for a short amount of time after joining the server. One Time Teleport is intended to allow new players to join their first nation without having to deal with travel time.

One Time Teleport requires both the new player and the target player to approve of the teleportation. If you are new and wish to OTT to a nation, you will need a player from that nation to be online first.

Inviting a player to a One Time Teleport. They can accept with /ott.

First, invite the new player, with /ottinvite <username>.

To accept a teleport, use the /ott <useranme> command with the username of a player who invited you.

Item Loss
