Linked Portals
by Linguardium
Linked Portals lets server owners build portal frames that connect to one another, with the frame rules set by portal type.
What it does
Linked Portals is a server-side mod for Fabric that lets portals be created in pairs. A portal type is defined by rule tests that check the frame blocks around it and the blocks inside the frame, and the mod supports custom rule tests added by other mods alongside the standard structure processor tests. When a frame is valid, a controller block takes the place of the original block, and breaking that controller drops the original block again.
Fabric API is required. LuckPerms is optional and can grant the linkedportals.masterkey permission node to players who manage links. Polymer is bundled inside the mod, so no separate install is needed for it. The mod is available only for Minecraft 1.20.4 and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Public links are provided for the source code and the issue tracker.
Key features
Linked portal pairs
Two portal frames can be linked so that entering one exits from the other, with unlinked portals left inactive.
Frame rule tests
Each portal type checks a valid frame rule and a valid interior rule, with the most common matches being block, blockstate or tag.
Frame size limit
A size limit controls the maximum width and height of a portal frame, with a default of 21 blocks.
Lockable portal types
A portal type can be set as lockable so that only specified players may use it, and the default is true.
