Amethyst Elevator

by Z4rVok

Amethyst Elevator lets players move between floors of a vertical column built from amethyst blocks, by jumping up or sneaking down, without redstone.

What it does

The mod is a datapack that can be loaded as a server-side data pack on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Players stand on an amethyst block and jump to travel up or sneak to travel down, and the elevator automatically finds the next available floor in the same column. Building a column requires redstone-free setup in the world, and the datapack has to be placed in the world folder before the world is reloaded.

Because the elevator is a datapack, it works in singleplayer and on multiplayer servers alike, and the server is the side that must run it. Players need nothing installed to use the elevators, which makes the datapack useful for servers that want quick vertical travel. Files target the 1.21 – 26.2 range, with the latest build 1.2.0+mod for 26.2, published on 2026-04-18, and the code is released under the Apache License 2.0, which makes the project open source.

Key features

  1. Jump to go up

    Jumping on an amethyst elevator block sends the player to the next floor above in the same column.

  2. Sneak to go down

    Sneaking on an amethyst elevator block sends the player to the next floor below in the same column.

  3. Automatic floor detection

    The datapack searches the column for the next available floor, so players do not need to pick a destination.

  4. Multiplayer support

    The elevators work on multiplayer servers, with the datapack installed on the server side.

Questions

Does Amethyst Elevator require a mod loader?

No. The mod is distributed as a datapack, so it does not need Fabric, Forge, NeoForge or Quilt to be installed on the server.

Do players need the datapack installed?

No. Only the server needs the datapack, and either side can run without it, so players can join without installing anything.

How is the datapack installed?

Place the datapack in the world folder, then reload the world with the reload command so the elevator functions are loaded.
