UniverseGate

# UniverseGate UniverseGate is a portal-focused mod for Fabric that introduces a new energy system, advanced machinery, and a mysterious dimension called **The Rift**. Build complex portal networks, generate power, manipulate the weather, and explore the void. ## Main Features - **Advanced Portals**: Build 3x4 gateways fueled by a new energy system. - **Energy System**: Generate power with **Solar Panels**, store it in **Energy Condensers**, and transport it via **Conduits**. - **The Rift Dimension**: A hostile, void-like world filled with unique resources like **Kelo Wood**, **Rift Crystals**, and dangerous **Rift Shades**. - **Meteorological Control**: Construct a massive multi-block machine to control the weather. - **Rift Refining**: Process Rift materials into **Dark Matter** for advanced technology. - **Portal Network**: Name your portals and dial any other gate in the network using the **Portal Controller**. ## Getting Started ### 1. Power Generation Before building a portal, you need energy. 1. Craft **Solar Panels**. 2. Place an **Energy Condenser**. This acts as a battery and network controller. 3. Connect Solar Panels to the Condenser using **Energy Conduits**. * *Note: Panels must see the sky and only work during the day.* ### 2. Building a Portal 1. Construct a **Portal Frame** with a **3x4 interior** (5x6 outer size). 2. Place the **Portal Core** at the **bottom center** of the frame. 3. Connect the Portal Core (or Frame) to your energy network using Conduits. * *Opening a portal costs **4000 EU**.* * *Maintaining the connection costs **120 EU/s**.* 4. Place a **Portal Controller** (formerly Keyboard) nearby (within 8 blocks). ### 3. Entering The Rift (Unstable Link) To reach the Rift for the first time, you need to force an unstable connection: 1. Craft a **Portal Lightning Rod**. 2. Place it within range of your portal. 3. Wait for a **Thunderstorm** (or force one, see below). 4. When lightning strikes the rod, it will force the portal to open an unstable Rift link. * *Warning: Unstable portals are volatile.* ### 4. The Meteorological Machine Tired of waiting for rain? Build the Meteorological Controller to change the weather. 1. **Structure**: Requires a specific multi-block setup (Parabola, Controller, Catalyst). 2. **Power**: Connect it to your energy network (requires **2500 EU** per operation). 3. **Catalyst**: Insert a **Meteorological Catalyst** crystal. 4. **Activate**: Select "Thunder" to charge your Lightning Rods instantly. ## The Rift The Rift is a dark, void-based dimension. - **Resources**: Gather **Kelo Logs**, **Rift Crystals**, and **Rift Meat**. - **Dangers**: Watch out for **Rift Shades** and **Rift Beasts**. - **Return**: Portals in the Rift are **auto-powered** by the ambient energy of the dimension, allowing for an easy return trip if you have a frame. ## Advanced Tech - **Rift Refiner**: Use **Rift Crystals** and a Bucket to craft **Dark Matter**. - **Dark Energy**: (Coming Soon) Use Dark Matter to power advanced **Dark Energy Generators**. - **Fluid Pipes**: Transport fluids like Dark Matter between machines. ## Requirements - Minecraft **1.21.1** - Fabric Loader - Fabric API ## Installation 1. Download the `.jar` file. 2. Place it in your `mods` folder. 3. Ensure **Fabric API** is installed. 4. For multiplayer, install on **both client and server**. ## License CC0-1.0 (Public Domain).
