Soulz's New Nether Reactor Core
by SoulSpy
Soulz's New Nether Reactor Core revives the Nether Reactor Core block from older Minecraft versions, rebuilt for Forge 1.20.1 with a new Infernal Gold Ingot recipe.
What it does
The mod brings back the Nether Reactor Core as a 1:1 recreation of the classic build, with its crafting layout kept close to the original. The reactor takes iron ingots on its sides and diamonds at its top and bottom, with the infernal ingot set in the center. The author describes the design as based on the Nether fortress, and a version of the old base setup is found now and then in forests.
Since version 1.1.0 the recipe has changed: one gold ingot is combined with three blaze powder to craft the new Infernal Gold Ingot, a stand-alone item that the author added alongside the reactor. The mod adds nothing else and does not require any other mod or API. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and the license is Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, so the code is not open source. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

What the author says
Are you an old Minecraft PE player and miss the Nether Reactor Core? Are you relatively new to minecraft and want to see what it might've been like? Well here's my version of the old relic. It's not a 1:1 recreation but rather being faithful to what it was like to build it up and how it felt being within. It's…
