AdventureBlocks StationAPI
by Telvarost
Adventure Blocks StationAPI adds barrier blocks, effect blocks and storytelling pieces for Babric and Fabric worlds on Minecraft b1.7.3, with a config-driven blocking system.
What it does
The mod supplies a range of barrier blocks that stop players and entities in an adventure map, along with effect blocks that trigger during play. Its normal barrier, a bedrock-style invisible block, is the only barrier that cannot be crafted. Aqua, Jade and Indigo barriers can be crafted from recipes that use soul sand, stone pressure plates and dye colors, and their blocking can be toggled with a dedicated hotkey. Aqua blocks by default, while Jade and Indigo do not.
The mod also changes a few vanilla details: nether portals play different sounds, and players can occasionally collide with them. Barrier blocks only activate on contact with an entity, and the mod uses ZastavkaAPI to check those entity collisions. Multiplayer is supported when GlassConfigAPI 3.0 or newer is installed, since it syncs configuration between server and clients. StationAPI is required, and Mod Menu is optional.
Adventure Blocks StationAPI is published for Fabric and Babric under the MIT License and is open source. Its files target b1.7.3 only, and snapshot builds are published alongside releases. Public source code and an issue tracker are available.
