Degraded End Portals
by LevAlTru
Degraded End Portals makes End Portals in the world broken and unusable for most players, with a small chance that a portal still works.
What it does
Portals to the End are generated in a degraded state, so most of them cannot be used to travel. A small share of portal frames remain usable, and the mod's own figures put the odds of a working portal within a 128-block range at about 83.2% of worlds. Degraded End Portals works on Fabric and Quilt for 1.19.2 – 1.19.4 and runs on client and server, so both need it. Fabric API is required, and YUNG's Better Strongholds is optional. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Broken End Portals
Most End Portal frames are degraded and cannot be activated, which changes how players reach the End.
Rare working portals
A small share of portal frames remain usable, so a working portal can still turn up in a world.
