Portal Gun Mod
by Jan3385
Portal Gun Mod adds a handheld gun that shoots portal liquids, letting players open portals between two points without crafting a separate block for each end.
What it does
The gun fires one of three portal liquids and sets its destination through the gun itself. Precursor Portal Liquid is the potion form and is meant to be drunk, while Unstable Portal Liquid is the incomplete form, which is dangerous and should be handled with caution. Stable Portal Liquid is the complete form and always produces a stable portal after a few seconds. Liquids can be stored in a proper container and shot out of the gun. A shot unstable liquid can also be thrown from a bottle, and the portal it creates may lead somewhere random, so the gun cannot reliably set a destination for that form.
The gun can hold up to five saved positions, so a player can teleport between stored locations across the world and across dimensions. Positions cannot be saved to the gun itself, and the mod can be re-released in public spaces only under certain circumstances, with the creator holding sole permission to do so. Portal Gun Mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. It runs on client and server, and it is published for Forge 1.20.1 only, with the latest file 1.1.1-1.20.1 dated 2026-10-13.
