wood.jar
wood.jar adds a custom dimension reached through a portal the player builds, along with a survival event in which a Wood Army attacks the player.
What it does
Players who build the portal enter a dimension with distorted world generation and custom biomes. Terrain in this dimension follows a layout that differs from the overworld, so exploration begins with unfamiliar ground. The dimension is part of the survival loop: the mod focuses on surviving within custom environments and defending against waves of its own entities.
When the survival event begins, aggressive custom entities called the Wood Army spawn and advance on the player. The hostile entity is built around its own AI: it tracks the player through the world, moves across chunks and follows the player's position until it is dealt with. Its stalking behavior is the main threat outside the event as well.
The mod requires Geckolib on Forge for 1.20.1. The environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod, and matching configuration settings are required on both sides. Files are released for 1.20.1 only, with version 1.0.0 as the latest file from 2026-05-31. The mod is not open source and is licensed as All rights reserved.
