Astral Plane Dimension
by NiceRon
Astral Plane Dimension adds a dark, hostile dimension with its own world generation, reached from the Overworld and offering rewards for players who explore it.
What it does
The dimension contains six biomes, among them Astral End, Astral Garden, Astral Desert and Astral Jungle. Two new structures generate in the Overworld, and thirteen structures are placed within the Astral Plane, with more planned by the author. Because the world generation is new throughout, the terrain and layout differ from vanilla dimensions.
The mod requires a server to run, while a client may add it without needing it to join. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt on Minecraft 1.21.4, and a data pack build is also available for server platforms. Snapshot builds are published, and the source code is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, so it is open source. Server owners running PaperMC or a fork such as Purpur should set allow-non-player-entities-on-scoreboards to true in the Paper configuration so that everything works properly.

What the author says
But if you are playing on a PaperMC Server (or a PaperMC Fork like Purpur) make sure to set allow-non-player-entities-on-scoreboards in your paper config files to true in order for everything to work properly.
