Travel Passages
by helios.tnak
Travel Passages changes how players move through the world, with structures, villager trades and fast travel that a server can reshape through datapacks.
What it does
Travel Passages covers the economy, adventure, transportation and world generation categories. Its structures include wall-less underground passages that are easier to cross while still exposing the ores along the way, and surface camp sites that hold extra exploration supplies. Villager trades can be overridden, and a datapack table controls how trades restock.
Fast travel is tied to sleeping: a player holding a map in the hand or offhand can use it to move between places. Features can be turned off or overridden with a datapack, so a server can tune the content without editing the mod itself.
The mod runs on Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1 only, and the latest file is 0.1.3, published on 2024-09-24. Only the server needs it; players join without installing it. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Villager trade overrides
Structures can override villager trades, and a datapack-based table decides which trades appear and how they restock.
Wall-less underground passages
Underground structures have no walls, so they are easier to move through, and the ores in them remain available.
Surface camp stashes
Camp sites on the surface contain stashes that give players extra supplies while they explore.
Map-based fast travel
Sleeping with a map in the hand or offhand triggers fast travel, so the map serves as the travel item.
