Bastion Remnant Units Reforged
by PNaClNH3
Bastion Remnant Units Reforged reconstructs the bastion remnant structures of vanilla Nether generation, so their rooms and walls look more complete and cared for.
What it does
The mod rebuilds the Bastion Remnant structure, a Nether ruin that vanilla generates as partly collapsed, into a version whose buildings read as neat and intact. Rooms are given distinct layouts so that most of them have features of their own, and the structures are made to look well maintained rather than abandoned. Because it changes world generation, the effect appears in newly generated chunks and does not alter structures that already exist in a saved world.
The mod is a server mod: the server requires it, and players may add it on their own client without any change to what the server generates. It is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, and the code is not open source. Builds are available for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and it is also offered as a data pack for server platforms. The 1.0 file covers 1.21.8, and the release versions are 1.16.1 – 1.21.1 plus later builds up to 1.21.8.
Key features
Reconstructed bastion remnants
Vanilla Bastion Remnant structures are rebuilt into more complete, intact buildings in the Nether.
Distinct rooms
Most rooms in a generated bastion receive features that set them apart from one another.
Well-maintained appearance
Walls and interiors are arranged to look cared for, instead of the collapsed ruins of vanilla generation.
Tidy building layouts
The layouts keep structures neat, so exploration of the Nether finds cleaner architecture.
