Ancient Gateways

Ancient Gateways

A mod about linking distant points across space and dimensions for Fabric 1.16.x

The main feature are gateways, multiblock teleporters that form a network across all dimensions. Any gateway on the network can link to any other, no matter the distance or dimension(s), provided that it is supplied with glyphs (either by hand or by machine) that match up with the ones on the target's structure.

Gateway structural requirements are fairly flexible. Any 7×7 or larger design that has the core and glyphs in the right places, and a 5×5 square or fat cross hole for the portal will work, regardless of structural material.

As of 1.1.0, gateways now form circular sub-networks within the larger network, where a gateway with no target will default to the next youngest on its sub-network, or the oldest if it's the youngest, and are capable of working underwater/under liquids in general. Connections from gateways outside a given sub-network will always link up with the oldest gateway on that sub-network, but younger gateways on a sub-network are still fully capable of forming two-way links with gateways outside their sub-network.

Yes, gateways work even in lava, as long as the materials their structure is made from can survive extended exposure.

Neither OpenlyFay nor any of her associates are responsible for any "funny pranks" involving gateways and lava. She does, however, find them hilarious, and would appreciate any particularly juicy tales of treachery.

More features coming soon™.

FAQ

Q: Forge?

A: Not planning a Forge port myself, but if you know Java and want to try doing it yourself there's nothing stopping you.

Q: Why don't your textures fit well with Minecraft's vanilla style?
A: I'm a programmer, not a pixel artist, so every texture is either programmer art or an asset from somewhere else used under license. By the way, if you're volunteering to redo all my textures that'd be fantastic thanks.

Q: What else are you planning to add?
A: You'll see when they're done or mostly there, I don't like to talk about features publicly when they don't even have a single line of code for them yet.

Q: 1.17 when?
A: I was kind of in the middle of a coding major content update when 1.17 dropped so right now I'm focusing on getting that out for 1.16.5 and then I'm porting over to 1.17
