Disable Dimensions

by nwrenger

Server owners who want to stop players from reaching custom dimensions can use Disable Dimensions, a server-side mod that blocks dimension entry.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or laterOpen source1.21 – 26.3

What it does

Disable Dimensions intercepts the known methods that send a player into a dimension, such as Nether and End portals and other entry paths, and returns the player immediately when a dimension is disabled. Each dimension is enabled or disabled separately, and a dimension can carry optional conditions that override its status when they are true. The mod is intended mainly for server administrators, and its messages shown to players can be customized.

The config panel is opened with a command and is usable only by a logged-in server operator, while the same settings can also be changed with config commands from the server console. Translated text is available in the supported languages. The mod is built to be event-driven, so a few rare transitions may need manual cleanup, and players may see behavior that differs from what they expect. Required dependency: Fabric API. Disable Dimensions is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later and runs on the server, while clients may add it without needing it.

Key features

  1. Blocked dimension entry

    Known dimension-entry methods are intercepted, so a disabled dimension sends the player back at once.

  2. Per-dimension conditions

    Optional conditions can enable or disable travel to a dimension after a set time or in a given gamemode.

  3. Custom dimensions

    A custom dimension added through a data pack or mod can be blocked from the config panel as a new entry.

  4. In-game config panel

    An operator opens the panel with a command and edits dimensions and messages without editing files.

Questions

Does Disable Dimensions need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency, so it must be installed alongside the mod on the server.

Does a player have to install the mod to join a server that runs it?

No. Either side can run without it, and players may join a server that runs the mod without installing it.

Can the dimension settings be changed without editing files?

Yes. An operator can open the config panel with a command, or use config commands from the server console.
