About
Gateways to Eternity is a mod about opening portals into other dimensions, and having enemies pour forth from those worlds. Every gate opened contains a link to a world full of a certain type of mob. Waves and waves of those mobs will progressively pour forth, and each wave completed will spawn additional loot from that mob at that portal.
This mod is my solution to requiring massive amounts of mobs be farmed, as loot yields are increased while mob counts are not. This allows for better performance as compared to spawning tons of mobs.
Completion of an entire portal will cause a massive amount of loot and experience to pour forth from the portal, and the portal will close.
Opening A Gateway
To open a gateway, you must first craft a Gate Opener. A gate opener will be able to open a specific portal size, attuned to a specific mob. Simply craft the gate opener you want, and use it on the nearest block.
The following Gate Openers are available by default:
- Spider
- Skeleton
- Ghast
- Enderman
- Witch
- Creeper
- Shulker
- Zombie
- Slime
- Magma Cube
- Blaze
Note that two gateways may not be open next to each other. A gateway may not be within 25 blocks of another gateway.
Fighting The Gateway
Once you've opened a gateway, your next goal is to close it. You can close a gateway by completing each wave. But be warned, failure to complete a wave on time will trigger a destabilization event, which will annihilate the gateway and may damage nearby things!
A gateway's max number of stages is indicated by its boss bar. Every section on the bar represents a wave, and each section will tick down once it begins. Clearing a wave will immediately end that wave's timer, and start the sequence for the next wave. Every time a wave is completed, additional loot (as if more of the spawned mob had died) will spawn from the portal. The more waves you clear, the more loot spawns at the center, but the stronger the spawned monsters become. Each wave, the mobs that come forth will be exponentially stronger than their predecessors. Upon completion of every wave, you will receive a large burst of experience and loot, and the portal will close with no adverse effects.
Custom Gateways
To add a custom gateway, you just need to add a new recipe for a gateway item. The subitems for gateways are pulled from the list of existing recipes. The format for a gateway recipe can be found in the pre-provided recipes here. When you add a new gateway, you will also need to be able to provide a language key for the name you assign to your gateway.
