I love this mod, and its so seamless! In my world I just happened to spawn next to a destiny gate and the dungeon with the kino remote.

Ideas - 

It would be really neat if there was a way to find specific types of gates, ie I really like the pegasus gates, but haven't been able to find any. Just milky way and destiny out of the 8 or so I have found in the world and thru cartouches.

Not sure if it would be possible at all, but it would also be neat if there was a more primitive way to 'drag' the gates to a new location before you've got steel to be able to break and pick them up. Like you would use ropes and such to drag it to the new location, working kind of like the wagons/carts mod. A more laborious/immersive process to moving them.

how one can acquire kino remote? and is it normal to not find any chevron tablets in loot?

Is there a way to build a Stargate? Or move ones already placed? In survival. Would be neat to connect them to translocators too

oh so the remote broke the gate adres of my home gate

the kino remote cords are a little buggy

Gate Remote is a little awkward to interact with (it likes to be covered up by the hotbar most of the time), but otherwise very cool. I am having a little trouble navigating through my address list - whenever I open it from the main screen, it goes straight to editing my first entry.

Any potential to combine this with Manifold and make other dimensions to explore and fight? 

Is there a way to craft them? We just added it to our save but we've explode a couple thousand blocks already so they probably wont generate till we leave the area we've explored. But from what I can see we can break them and ptu them somewhere else?

Thank you so much for this incredible mod! I absolutely love it. Astria Porta is a game-changer for exploration. It allows me to go on massive journeys into the unknown, while knowing I can always easily find my way back home. It fits the world so well and makes long-distance travel so satisfying. Keep up the amazing work!

latest update seems to break the DHDs. I can't even select them. 

Thank you much! Fixed it! Curious, what is the difference between the two gate types? I realized I had a pegasus gate spawn in close to where I built. Is it cosmettic, distance or something else? 

Will this mod be updated for the new version?  Hoping so

nanotect they work just fine if i use the paper with the address. but when i manualy enter the address with or without the dashes it doesnt work.

DefactoToast you don't need the dashes, which is why you can't enter them. I'm planning on making the way addresses are shown a bit more clear.

There can be multiple reasons why an address wouldn't work, depending on your configuration. Particularly the minimum and maximum chunk range.

If that doesn't work it's possible the link between the DHD and the gate got broken, and you may need to click the relink button a couple of times.

So, how do you enter the addresses on the GUI? I can't seem to enter the dashes, and it doesn't work without them.

The idea of just coming across random portals and having to write down the runes to fasttravel is pretty cool. Unlike all the other Network-Portal mods, you have to find them and remember them, not set up your own

Anyone else having problem with crashing on dedicated servers?

Anyone else having dialing delays? It's mostly with the Pegasus gates. They've been pausing for 3-8 seconds between chevrons. The milkyway gates sometimes have a brief pause, but far less frequent and much shorter in duration. It's on a server and I've tried restarting the server but that didn't change it. Could world size have an effect? Early on they were snappy in dialing but recently the delay started.

Why'd you choose the Illac Renin for the stargate tapestry?

Hello! First of all, great mod, love it! As a SG fan, it is a must have.

However I have a bug on my server: It is not possible to dial gates that are really far appart (from 0,0 to 0, 50000 for example).

[Audit] [astriaporta] Final chevron locked, but remote gate not available yet

"MinRangeChunksMilkyway": 10,
"MinRangeChunksPegasus": 10,
"MaxRangeChunksMilkyway": 262144,
"MaxRangeChunksPegasus": 262144,

The workaround I found is to dial a gate to act as a midway stop (~35k blocks).

Is there a detail I'm missing ?

Edit: The difference I'm having from the previous comment is that it is happening with pegasus and milky way gate.

Thanks in advance!

Playing on a multiplayer server, the Pegasus gates cannot be dialed out of, only dialed to them.

I can dial between milkyway gates properly in contrast, they work as they should.

The Pegasi gates just seem like they fail to resolve any address you try to dial to, in order to open a gate between the two.

If it helps, the server audit log says this:

18.1.2026 20:02:38 [Audit] [astriaporta] Started dial to 1-x-m-v-6-s-x-0-0 with coordinates (513984,0,509472)
18.1.2026 20:02:45 [Audit] [astriaporta] Final chevron locked, but remote gate not available yet

Every time a dial is attempted.

Does this mod adds Thor's Hammer "obelisks" if so do they have some usage?

or do they came from another mod

I've gone through the logs looking for anything related to the gates but I havent found anything , but then im not entirely sure what im looking for , its probably a mod conflict of some sort but I cant track it down and nothing else I use messes with teleportation I dont think , there isnt an immiedatly obvious error that comes up , the pegasus gate specificlly wont dial to anything on its own and once connected to a milkyway gate it will only allow travel to that specific gate no matter what code I put in

update: so interestingly enough I rememberd I changed the config file to allow iron tools to break the gates down , deleted the config file , its working again , I even changed the setting back again but its still working so , no idea but some weird issue on my end , thanks for checking in anyway mate , love this mod

Kyrios34 I haven't encountered that issue before, if you want to you can enable some extra logging in the mod config and check if there are any errors and such in the logs. That might give me something to work with.

Chainlink yes, there are supposed to be some gates that are missing a DHD, but I've noticed that they are missing one more often than I'd like, despite the chance of no DHD being only 20%. I'll probably drop that lower soon, and I might also just move that into a configuration somewhere. As for the coordinate tablet spawn rate, I'm not opposed to making that configurable, but it would require some extra work on my end, and I don't think it's a priority right now

This is by far my favorite teleport mod! Is it by design that a lot of the gates I'm seeing have no DHD? Will there be options to construct the parts for one? Also, I'm running across the rooms in with the vessel that sometimes has coordinates papers. Could a setting be exposed that turns that drop rate up a bit?

Not sure if its just me or not but none of the pegasus gates on any of my worlds seem to be working

small update , I cant dial out with a pegasus gate , if I link a milkyway gate to a pegasus gate it works however , no matter what code I put in after that eg.1234567 , it will still only connect to only that milkyway gate that I used first

nanotect no problems, thanks for the speedy update and fix, loving the mod so far

it just took a rollback to solve our issue till you updated and fixed it.

keep up the amazing work

DimitriRascolov I have fixed the issue in version 0.1.2
I usually test in singleplayer only, but this bug only happens on multiplayer. I'm sorry for the problems that caused.

Going forward I'm going to perform pre-release testing in a server to avoid this kind of issue

nanotect
just updated to the new version of the mod in the server with Fimzl and it immediately caused a logspam that crashed the server

Fimzl the new version 0.1.1 has some changes that make it easier to fix a broken gate (Still don't know what the problem is, so no fix yet). Broken gates will now have a specific error text. Right-clicking or trying to break the gate (even breaking with your hands will work) should fix it.
If you have access to the server logs and see any errors in there regarding the stargates, feel free to let me know! It might give me a hint as to what is going on

Hey Hey, I'm dealing with an issue regarding the mod. Stargates are, seemingly, at random, breaking. I'm playing on a server with a player count of ~13 and I've based myself on top of a big mountain. I've had it happen with two stargates, the original was working fine for some time and then it wasn't, so I got a replacement. This time moving it inside my subterranian base, as the original was also land blocked by a near by trader. Interestingly enough the replacement worked fine, for a one way trip. But notably both portals were missing the spinning stone ring. When I open the DHD and try to reconnect my portal, the "No stargate connected" text disappears, but returns upon reopening the console. Also the portal itself is indestructible, I cannot relocate it. 

I've done cursory search, but couldn't find anything similar. I was wondering if anyone had encountered the issue before, and if there are any known conditions like being on a mountain, or whatever might cause two portals back to back to stop working. I'm a fan of the mod and It makes my mountaineering life much easier, so I'm open to any suggestions or theories. My current theories lean towards an issue with the gate. Either not properly closing or maybe the elevation although again the original was working for some time. The mods of the server should be able to break the old stargates, which hopefully fixes the problem. But we'll see.

This is awesome!

As someone that was part of the rebellion against Ra 5000 years ago, I fully support adding Stargates to the game!

Issue fixed I suppose lol

Malikyte

You should not be trying to join servers with your single player modlist installed... that would be why you are crashing

@nanotect Yes, was connecting to a server that doesn't have the mod installed, it's just a mod I personally use in my singleplayer game.

Malikyte oh dear that shouldn't be happening, especially not in that method. There isn't actually anything in the stack trace to pinpoint the issue, and code looks clean for this kind of issue.

Are you connecting to a server? Could help me to try and reproduce the issue.

I hope to push out another update tomorrow that fixes some other bugs. I'll include some extra debugging to see if that shows where the issue is more accurately.

Just recently updated to the new version on 1.21.6 and getting a CTD every time with this error

nanotect thanks for the reply and this awesome mod.  ill add it in and let you know if i find any errors 😊

Hi Katzvielle it should work totally fine on any 1.21 versions, I just haven't tested it yet on anything other than 1.21.6. I'll do some testing and then adjust the compatible versions if all works fine.
You should be able to just use it as-is on 1.21.5 though, but it's never a bad idea to make a backup of your world just in case.

will this work on 1.21.5?

Xenon2462 I'm not really looking for direct collaboration at this point in time, but if there's anything you think would be good to change, or anything that's wrong, you can always send me a message via discord (Astria Porta post on the Vintage Story server), or send me a message through the forums. (my name is also nanotect on both platforms)

nanotect
i've been tweeking your mod to see if i can get it to use the atual sounds from stargate, and so far my sucess is very close, how ever i have came across some supprising issues, not gamebraking just wierd sound related stuff, anychance we could get get into direct contact to work on it together

HaraiseTenshi yes you can, by default you can mine the DHD with an iron pickaxe, and the gate itself with a steel pickaxe, but it's configurable through the config file.

So quick question: Are we actually able to move the Gates and DHDs like find one say in Egypt and bring it home? ;)

Lack of a P-90 makes me cry but I understand the limiitations ;~;

Just saw this in a NilHero mod review from 13 Dec.  This is absolutely amazing and well done.  I definitely plan on adding this from the beginning when we restart  a world for 1.22. 
What I had to laugh and shake my head at was NilHero's 'gripes' about the way the mod works . . . clearly NOT a Stargate fan.  My husband and I, on the other hand, LOVE that the game features are true to the Stargate function.   Well done, Nanotect, well done. 

nanotect

forgot to update you on this... It has proven to be extremely unreliable and the pattern I described is not quite as clean for us anymore. I have a feeling it is tied in some way to terrain gen (my hunch is rivers). If you want I can pull together a save file and minimum mods required, as well as a list of gate pairings that work and don't work for you to test against but I'm kinda hoping with whatever you've done on the backend it's just a nonissue now and we can forget about it 😅up to you.

The issue is easy enough to get around these days though... we discovered an island and a gate that for some reason is completely unaffected by this "bug" whatever it is and can freely connect to any gate in the world, furthest gate so far being about 70k blocks away.

As for some folks having issues with mounts... we've experienced our fair share of those issues, and it seems to be more of a database issue than anything else. It's like the coords for the mount get recorded wrong (or sometimes not at all) and I believe this to be an issue in the base game (with people's mounts disappearing, especially if a crash occurs)

As always my test server is available if you'd like to do some MP testing for new versions.

And for TopKexx's problem, haven't seen this happen on a fresh spawned gate that has never been used before but the only way to fix it (currently) is to have an admin great and replace that gate manually like nano said, as for why it happens, I've only seen it happen (2-3 times now, at one specific gate actually) when the gate is dialing and the game crashes. Might also be when the game crashes due to a database error which the gate is connected. It's a weird one.

FatherSarge Concerning the 50k+ block distance gates not loading, I haven't been able to reproduce this, or find the exact cause. I do have an idea of what could be the problem, so I'll try to look into it and hopefully this is fixable.

ThatSteveThing I've never encountered this issue before, so I suspect it's a problem that mostly occurs on servers (I primarily test in singleplayer)? However, I'm going to put in some safeguards that should prevent the issue.

TopKexx Looking at the picture, I know exactly what the issue is, but not what caused it. It seems that the block is there, but the blockEntity (which actually runs the code) was not saved for some reason. I've never seen this before, either in this mod or other mods, and it's double strange given that the DHD blockEntity seems to still exist. I doubt this would show up in the logs, but to fix it you can break the block and place it again.

DimitriRascolov I'm guessing this has something to do with the size of the hitboxes of the mounts, I'll look into it, but might not be something I can do anything about.

Love the mod, it makes life much easier for our server when we spread out our settlements, we have however encountered an interesting bug.

When riding mounts from either the draconis or feverstone wildlands mods, theres a chance that instead of arriving at the dialed location, the portals will instead randomply place people underground as if the warp portal was a translocator

Hello! The stargates are so cool!

We ran into a problem, found a stargate, it had a code and all, so we went exploring. After finding another stargate we typed the Dial code on the DHD and nothing happened... which was pretty strange. We explored a bit more and found a third one and the codes between the last 2 gates work just fine - the animations play and the teleporting works :)

After making the long trek back to the first gate we noticed it's missing it's back texture? And it also says "no gate linked". No matter how many times we press the relink button. This gate wasn't crafted or anything just found generated in the world.

We're playing on a server if that helps. Sorry I don't have a lot more information, no idea how to access the debug logs or anything to send

https://imgur.com/a/5KKfTlb for a screenshot of what it looks like

ThatSteveThing

The address of the gate is tied to the bottom center block of the gate so it will change. As for your sound issue, I've gotten that as well chock that up to it being alpha and a bit bugged. I've started disconnecting the gate manually from the DHD after I travel through it to prevent this. It has something to do with the sound not updating properly if you get outside the render range of the gate I think.

newMania 

They are not craftable, new gates will start generating with new chunks you enter. They are fairly common (one every 1000 blocks basically on the surface and underground) at default spawn rates so you shouldn't have much issues finding some even on an existing world.

Hey this mod looks awesome and I want to add it to my existing server. Just wondering if the star gates can be built and if this mod will work if added to an existing world. If I add it to an existing world will the gates spawn in discovered areas or only in undiscovered areas? 

nanotect

First off, just wanted to say I absolutely LOVE this mod. Makes world traversal so much easier than finding Translocators and having to repair them, just to zip around the map to wherever they end up.

One question and one issue I'm dealing with at the moment.

Firstly if I "relocate" a gate from where it naturally spawned to where I've set up base, does the gate keep it's current address, or does it generate a new one?

Secondly, the issue I'm experiencing is a slight bug with the "underwater" sound that plays once the gate has established a link. Once I go through a gate to the other side, when I move far away from the gate, sometimes the sound persists, even if the gate has shut itself down. Is this a common thing or something that I should be worried about?

Keep up the good work in the meantime :)

nanotect

Maybe you can shed some light on this for me, server or mod issue I'm not sure.

I'm dialing an address that is about 50k blocks away and the server log says the chevron locked but the remote gate isn't ready so it shuts down. This is the furthest gate I've tried to dial but I've never had this issue before. This is after a server restart as well. Any ideas?
PS Closer gate (but still unloaded) can connect successfully

Bart_Sloper You can go to the ModConfig folder, which is inside the VintagestoryData folder (which also contains your mod folder). In here there should be a file called astriaporta.json (assuming you've started a world with the mod installed before).

In that file you can tweak two values related to the minimum spawn distance between gates: MinDistanceSurfaceGates and MinDistanceUndergroundGates. The distance here is in blocks.

I'd love to use this mod but my friends think the spawnrate for the gates is a little too high, they'd prefer something closer to the spawnrate of the translocators. Is there a way i can do this in the mod files?

I can't mine the DHD. It just reverts back to 100% condition. Is it possibly because I changed the config to allow T3 tool to mine?

nanotect It is a odd one, from what I have found certain gates will spawn slightly covered but not display an obstructed message, these types of gates are the ones that cause a crash when quick dialing but for some reason only from certain block faces.

Furhammer I don't seem able to reproduce this issue myself. There also isn't any logic tied to which side you use to interact, so this likely isn't the actual issue.
If you encounter the issue again, you can send me the logs if you want, that will give me a clue as to what's going on.

If you do send a log over, don't do it here, send it on discord or via the forums (there should be post for this mod somewhere)

Found a weird bug. If you try to quick dial a gate from the rear of the dhd it will cause you to crash.

Great mod, really love it thus far, even though only found two gates close to each other as of yet.
Quick question, can i just set random address in DHD and hope that something might open?

Man I'm so excited to use this in 1.21

Me n the boyz are rewatching SG-1 as we get hyped for the 4 week vintage story phase

Hi, I love this mod so much, great work.

FYI I tried the mod on 1.21 and the structures are working, but as soon as the player interact with them, the game crashes

Thank you for this :-D

I was thinking a nice option might be to have quick dial be able to be set for parchmnet dialing only.

Really looking forward to transport rings and Destiny gates.  Would be nice if there was a way to bundle several parchments together so I don't have a bunch taking up inventory space.

Great work!

If you want to have ruins around the gates, I'd recommend having a chat with the Better Ruins team, to see if you can get some kind of integration going.

Super excited for the Destiny-type stargate, they're probably my favourite design of the three - not to mention the gate remotes!

Request:
-Add an option to disable underground spawns of stargates.

-Add an option to disable spawning of stargates without a console.

Ryudo_Winchester & ScantLobster

I can't seem to reproduce this issue at the moment, but I do know the dialing can fail if the chunk is not available at the end of the dialing, although I don't know if that's the cause in this instance.

If you want to you can send me the client-main.log, client-debug.log, server-main.log and server-debug.log via the forum or on discord and I can take a look (no guarantees I can solve it). (Although getting the server logs might not be possible if you're playing on a server)

Having an issue with the stargates connecting. Happens when using both code sheets and manual dialing, will dial through but get stuck on final symbol and then reset. Using on a server. 

Im useing this for now in a singleplayer  when i find a new stargate i mark it with the codination but evry stargate i find dosent work ??? like if i input a code it wont connect 

it wont connect the last symbol but its the correct adresse ??? is there a bug in the  mod ??

Hey, 

just wanted to say that this mod is awesome!

I found the gate from the time loop Episode and loved the attention to detail :D

Thank you.

Currently the DHD spawns in at 50% right? Could you make that instead say 95% of gates having a working DHD, with the rest not having a DHD attached. And of that remaining 5% having 1% of them have a physical DHD near the gate, but broken, and needing repairs. I do understand you have a lot of work to do on the mod still, but as a future update mayne?

Keep up the great work. I love your mod.

CrusadingPriest That shouldn't be happening, but what do you mean by walking away exactly? Leaving the area so the chunks unload and then coming back? That might still be an issue.
If it's you linking it, then leaving the GUI, and the DHD forgetting the address immediately, then that's a more serious issue that I've never encountered before.

So I placed a DHD next to a gate but it wont stay linked to the gate. I hit the relink button and it links but when I walk away it loses the address. Am I doing something wrong?

MyNameWill Interesting, cartouches don't save their search progress and should reset to neutral after a reload, unless I made a mistake somewhere.

Looking at the part of the debug tablet code that's throwing this error, the issue likely isn't with me. The only way this error can occur is if the game unloads the item definition before it has even been loaded (don't ask me how).
I do know that crashes like this often obscure the true issue, with often random items / blocks ending up at the top of the stack trace for seemingly no reason.
The actual client and server log files usually have more info on what actually goes wrong, hope that helps.

DilanRona That issue has been fixed

FatherSarge I might just end up commissioning someone to make legally distinct sound effects. But I'm kind of busy IRL at the moment, and there's also a big refactor of the main stargate code I need to finish first and foremost.

I take it you right clicked the debug tablet at empty air, or some block that wasnt related to the stargate mod (ie gate, dhd, or computer), right? MyNameWill

Not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but this mod seems to semi-randomly crash my game. Occasionally when I launch my world the game will crash and I'll get the error listed below. It only happens when I am launching the world. Its not a major issue as simply relaunching the world seems to work, but it's definitely annoying. I am running a BUNCH of mods, so that might not be helping. Oh and also since it lists a tablet as causing an issue I figured that I should mention that I do have one Cartouche that has been searching for a Stargate for about 70 ish hours of game time. I doubt thats the root of the issue, but I thought it should be mentioned. Anyways, heres the error I receive on crashing.

Let me know if ya need any more info! And thanks for the wondeful mod! 

(Stargate SG-1 is amazing)

nanotect for the sounds, I'd maybe approach the Stargate Journey or maybe the Just Stargate Mod minecraft mod teams about how they are doing things/if they are even trying to avoid copyright/etc. Both of those mods have pretty spectacular stargate sounds. Maybe they'll even let you borrow some of their sounds if you get lucky!

RuneScriber there's no way to create a gate through crafting at this point in time, but you can break them and put them down somewhere else.

You can change the required mining level (copper / bronze / iron / steel pickaxe) in the mod config if you want to

@DilanRona

can they be place and or made in survival?

Every gate has a unique address. As long as you have the address of the destination gate, you can dial it from any other gate, and get there.

does this mod allow the creation and linking of portals or is it only random tp like vannila transporters?

nanotect Honestly, with the sounds, While the originals are copyrighted, I'm sure if you jsut mention that the sounds and concept of Stargate is copyrighted by MGM, in the mod description, and don't try to sell the mod for money, You should be fine, The sounds can even be found on Youtube without ads

Could the DHD be sold at clockmakers then? Just the DHD, and not the gate themselves.

Matiamo

This shouldn't break anything in existing worlds, except for increasing the default spawning distance between stargates. Although you could set this back to the previous value in the config file if you want to (config options "MinDistanceSurfaceGates" and "MinDistanceUndergroundGates", previous value was 600)

New save required for the update I take it?

I can wait a bit longer I suppose for the remote dialing function. Your mod is still in alpha, and I guess there is still a ton of work to do behind the scenes on the coding level.

DilanRona

I don't know why gates tend to always generate near the world spawn (blame VS worldgen), but the DHD generation is fully random, nothing to do about that. I am absolutely aware of the remote controllers from SGU, but they won't be coming until later as there are other QoL improvements and other major additions that take priority. Besides that, DHDs are sometimes missing because if all gates had one, it might be rather overpowered.

As for the mining tier things, they are customizable in the config. The main intention was to allow players to relocate DHDs if they found a nice place for their home near a gate without a DHD, without making gates relocatable until late game.

JunidO

The config file reverting back shouldn't be happening except for certain settings that automatically revert if the value is outside of a reasonable range (such as the maximum connection duration having a lower limit of 10s). Do let met know which settings are causing issues and I can look into it if it's happening to more things than it should.

Kreeate

Good suggestion, could be a nice addition to some sort of larger catalog item to manage all your address notes. Should be doable by next update.

FatherSarge

I've had multiple requests about better sounds, but I'm kind of hesistant to use the (copyrighted) sounds from the show unless I have no other choice. Although you're right that I should probably upgrade the sounds soonish

So far the most annoying aspect of the mod is finding a gate near (or resonably near) the spawn point and there is no DHD. Can you please add the Kino remote (https://stargate.fandom.com/wiki/Ancient_remote_control) for the gates with no DHD's?

<EDIT>

It's not the Kino remote that I was thinking off, although if you could add the Kino and its Kino remote (which is capable of dialing Destiny style gates) it would be greatly appreciated. To cover the gates with no DHD's, could you please add the portable DHD (https://stargate.fandom.com/wiki/Dial_Home_Device?file=Con_Portable_Stargate_DHD.jpg) as demonstrated with the goa'uld?

JunidO If you use Config Lib with Auto Config Lib, save (dont forget to hit the save button) and then restart the world/server the settings will save correctly

nanotect I love this mod and can't wait for it to get bigger and better, thank you got enabling the quick dial in a nice easy way (took me a minute to find though xD might want to reference it in the Handbook). I can't tell you how many times I had to abandon the gate at night time getting swarmed by monsters waiting for the dial out to finish.
Looking forward to the sound effects getting added

If you change something in the config file, it will allways reset to original. So, actually you can´t edit the config.

thought, add naquadah ore, or rather, naquadah meteors like meteoric iron, that can be either alloyed with iron to make naquadah alloy or pure naquadah for making parts of gates post steel age? as naquadah ore, in info, isent natural to "our" world

nanotect Any way to add the possibility to write some descriptive text on an address note?

It's difficult to remember where x-y-z-a-b-c is supposed to take me, especially if you have many discovered gates and many address notes.

Out of sheer curiosity, Why can you mine the DHD with a level 4 pick when you need level 5 for the gate itself? Also, any plans on making the gates and DHDs themselves craftable? and Hopign to potentially see some custom sounds for the gates, Would be the cherry on top of the cake that is this awesome mod

I noticed that the DHD has to be within 4 blocks of the gate when I place it, and it has to face the gate (took a while to figure that out though).

As for the crash, it only happens when I right click the debug tablet at empty air (pointing to the sky).

I am willing to send the logs via forums if you want them, but I absolutely refuse to have anything to do with discord after the server moderators stole and deleted my account and will not specify what my so called crime was.

nanotect Beautiful! I'll keep an eye out for the update.

DilanRona

DHD linking is currently pretty limited in range, as well as being a bit directional. Automatic linking currently also only happens when you place the gate first, then DHD second. Update this weekend will increase the range.
As for the second issue, that doesn't really seem like it's caused by the debug tablet (extended-workbench?). I can take a look if you send log files with the issue on Discord or on the forum post.

Ivanblade

That issue should be resolved in the next update this weekend, let me know if the issue still persists afterwards and I can take another look.

Thalius

A configuration setting for disabling worldgen gates and gates generated by address cartouches is coming in next update this weekend.

How do I resolve the "No gate linked" when manually placing a gate and DHD? Testing it out now.

Also had the following error with the debug tool for the gate.

I got a weird bug on my dedicated server atm. Currently, anytime I try to use any of the stargates it returns with this in my server console:
[astriaporta] Address (whatever the address is) was invalid, returning null

The weird thing is, it's specifically for my current map only, I have another map which the mod works just fine on and was on the same server not long ago.

Out of curiosity, Will there be custom sounds in the future?

May I suggest adding a config to completely disable spawning on worldgen? So that a patch to disable them is not needed? I really want to reserve these as an admin tool for setting up limited portals between spawn and distant locations on a community server, but I want control over where they show up.

Looking forward to next update! Mod seems very cool so far but being unable to make them much rarer/farther apart definitely hurts a bit.

So these spawn in the world?

I'm intrigued by this project, and am keeping an eye on it.

Personally I don't like translocators, as they are way too common and have no serious cost.  I do sort of like the idea of being able to acquire late game tech that allows for linking very distant communities in the manner this mod provides, but they'd have to be very rare. I've considered looking at making translocators work in a similar manner, but this mod provides something that would do that, with the added function of being able to "dial" in to other gates.  The only concern is frequency.  If they had to be crafted from old world tech that was scavenged up and was extremely hard to come by, resulting in no more than a handful or two of gates being made possible, it'd be a valuable thing to have.  Too many gates spawning randomly across the entire world makes it an overpowered feature.

I suppose a patch could be made to disable their spawning and just have a server admin place one as desired for a more balanced use, but making them a very rare craftable item would be more fun and challenging.

Another idea might be to work them into a structure that only spawns a limited number of times and across a configurable distance from one another, making them a leftover item from the old world that players can find and use to move between gates. As gates are found and "addresses" acquired, moving across vast distances would become somewhat easier to do.

Very curious to see where this mod goes from here.

JunidO

Next update will increase the default distance between stargate spawns, as well as add a configuration option to change this distance as you like. Hope that improves it for you!

KnightessOruna

NPCs are quite a ways out, so I'm not 100% sure how I'm going to handle that. Will probably be a configuration option at the very least, although I just might split it off into a separate optional mod.

will the npc's be a option we can toggle on and off?

For my taste, there are too many Stargates spawning in the world.

Yes Please! Cant wait to see where this mod goes. Wish there was a way to create our own dimensions in VS.

@nanotect I too had the water particles, no texture, then it also crashed, and made the whole area black.imgur.com/a/JrUjrTx

Yes, I am using mods that add a lot of new blocks/textures, and I tired an Atlas increasing mod and it still doesn't work correctly.

~Edit. Need a way to configure how close they can spawn. Just found 2 within 23 blocks of each other lol

-Edit 4/7/25. Today's update has fixed the invisible portal, hooray! And awesome about the distance fix too. So glad to add this back to my server.

zizzler

Sorry to hear you're having issues. I haven't had the portal be invisible before.

If you want to you can send some more info on the mod thread in the VS discord, and I'll try to help.
Or you can reply to the Astria Porta post on the forum.

Any chance you're using mods that add a lot of new blocks / textures?

excellent work 😃
in my game when stargate is opened i get the particle effect and water sound but the i dont get any texture inside the gate. it is just see through.
i installed LibATex also.

im on a multiplayer server with 1.20.7 version of game. any advice to get the nice textures?

I will follow this mod with great interest :)

Dude... I was just thinking about creating a Stategate mod for VS 😂

Looks good! Very excited to see the progress on this!

This really just looks like the old stargate mod from minecraft days. OG Modmaker Perhaps? Very good.

It looks amazing

Absolute Legend long time fan of the stargate universe and this is awsome and will fit perfect onto my server once its verified as stable

Genuinely amazed with this mod already. For being a first draft this has so much quality to it already. The only thing I worry about is the ease of use when it comes to larger servers and their use as a way to connect people together. Memorizing addresses and keeping gates open/the time it takes to dial being kinda slow. Though I don't want that to step on the vision, I love it so far!

Based!

I'm going to need a P90 and C4 mod pls.
