Exploration Reloaded

Wither Compass teleportation

Build matching 7 by 7 platforms from 49 blocks of a single beacon material, with a Lodestone on top of the centre block. Bind a compass to the destination, then charge it with one Nether Star at an anvil for one experience level.

• Start a journey by using the Wither Compass on the departure Lodestone. Other players join with an empty main hand. One charge covers the entire group.
• Iron carries players within 4,000 horizontal blocks. Gold adds animals and monsters and shortens preparation. Emerald also carries villagers and wandering traders. Diamond removes the distance limit within a dimension. Netherite connects dimensions. Additional Additions' rose gold also keeps players on their living mounts.
• Travellers keep their exact horizontal position and looking direction. Arrival height follows the destination covering, so bare, slab and carpeted platforms can connect.
• Platforms can be concealed beneath a decorative floor. Particles show the boarding area and selected travellers above the covering, with familiar Minecraft sounds throughout the journey.
• Blocked or interrupted journeys preserve the charge. Successful travel returns an ordinary compass that keeps its destination and name. Players receive three seconds of Blindness.
• Villagers preserve trades and inventory. Living mounts preserve their rider, saddle and equipment. Cross-dimensional creatures retain their identity and data.

The previous covered-campfire flight stations and subtle smoke remain included.

Built for Minecraft 26.1.2 and Fabric. Update both client and server. Additional Additions is optional and enables rose-gold platforms.
