Gateways
by sudodre
Gateways is a Fabric teleport mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that adds gateway structures players can link and step through.
What it does
A gateway is built as a 7x7 square of blocks around a hub center, which is formed from amethyst blocks and a resonant amethyst block. Right-clicking the eye block opens a pad, and once both pads are valid, the next right-click on a block or entity sends it across. The hub stores a destination frequency, so a gateway can be tied to another one.
Teleports play a particle effect and a flash animation on both sides of the gateway. The mod is compatible with redstone, and it works with vanilla-esque teleport pad mods that use blocks and entities. It uses the Veil rendering library, which is compatible with other rendering libraries and shader-style optimizations.
Gateways is published for Fabric only, and the latest Fabric file is 1.0 for 1.21.1, released 2025-02-22. The first release was published on 2025-01-24. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Gateway hub
A hub is the central block of a gateway, and it stores the destination frequency that links the gateway to another.
Crafted gateway parts
The hub is made from an eye of ender, amethyst blocks and chorus flowers, which ties gateway building to the End.
Tuning fork
A tuning fork is crafted from a copper ingot and iron bars, and it is used to set a gateway's frequency.
Pad teleportation
Right-clicking the eye block opens a pad, and the next right-click on a block or entity teleports it through the gateway.
Teleport effects
Each teleport shows particles and a flash animation on both sides of the gateway.
