What is Waystones?
2 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide
Waystones adds teleportation you can build into your base, your server hub or your adventure map. You place waystone blocks, activate them, and from then on you can return to them. You can hop from one waystone to another, or you can activate them with a Warp Scroll or a rechargeable Warp Stone.[1]
It works in Survival, in Adventure Maps and on Multiplayer Servers, where it can stand in for /warp and /home commands. If you play with friends, waystones can be made global so everyone can use them, which suits a community hub.[1]
What you get
- Craftable Waystones, Warp Plates and Warp Scrolls.[1]
- Teleporting from one waystone to another.[1]
- Global Waystones for community hubs or sharing with friends.[1]
- An optional teleport button in your inventory. It is configurable and lets you warp without any extra items.[1]
- A waystone structure that can generate in villages.[1]
In this pack
The pack ships Waystones 21.1.41, the NeoForge build for Minecraft 1.21.1. It has been included since an early pack release (2.25 or earlier).[2]
The mod needs Balm installed alongside it. Its page says Shogi is only required on Minecraft 26.1 and above, so it does not apply to this 1.21.1 build.[1][2]
Unverified Where Waystones fits in the pack's progression is not confirmed. No quests or ATM Star path steps involving the mod were found, and there is no in-jar guidebook. Treat it as a standalone travel tool you can pick up whenever you like.
How do you get started with Waystones?
4 parts
Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 4.0 guide
Waystones lets you set up teleport points and hop between them. A waystone block is something you can return to once you've activated it, either with a Warp Scroll, with a rechargeable Warp Stone, or by using an existing waystone to jump over. Here's the order I'd tackle things in.[1]
First, make a Warp Stone
Start with the Warp Stone. It's the rechargeable item that can activate waystones, and it's also an ingredient in the waystone blocks that come next, so it's the first thing to craft.[1][3]
Crafting Shaped

Recipe id: waystones:warp_stone
The pack changed this recipe from the mod's default.
Next, craft your first Waystone
Now make a Waystone and place it at your base. Having a waystone is also the task of the quest a quest in "?" in the Getting Started chapter of the quest book, so you tick that off along the way.[3][4]

The pack changed this recipe too.
If you like a different look, there's a Mossy Waystone and a Sandy Waystone, each with its own recipe. You can also turn an existing waystone into the mossy version.[3]
Then grab a Warp Scroll for trips
A Warp Scroll is the mod's craftable scroll option for warping, and it can activate a waystone too.[1]

Finally, expand your network
Once you have a waystone set up, a Sharestone is the next thing to look at. It teleports you to any other colorless Sharestone.[5]

Recipe id: waystones:sharestone
The pack changed this recipe as well.
The dyed versions, like the Red Sharestone and Blue Sharestone, each teleport you to any other Sharestone of the same color. That lets you keep separate networks apart.[5]
The Portstone can't be teleported to. The Warp Plate works with attuned shards: you insert a shard into a warp plate, and you can bring it to another plate too.[3][5]

The pack changed the Portstone recipe.
How does Waystones work?
6 parts
Waystones is a teleport mod, so there are no machines, power or fluids to manage. The core idea is that once you activate a waystone, you can return to it later. You activate one with a Warp Scroll, a rechargeable Warp Stone, or by using an existing waystone to hop to another.[1]
Travelling between waystones
In this pack, restrictions.allowWaystoneToWaystoneTeleport is on. That means you can teleport between waystones just by right-clicking a waystone.[6]
Waystones can also be made global, so every player can use them. That suits community hubs or sharing with friends. In this pack, restrictions.globalWaystoneSetupRequiresCreativeMode is true, so only creative-mode players can make a waystone global.[1][6]
Teleporting can cost experience. The pack sets xpCost.blocksPerXpLevel to 1,000, which is the number of blocks per level of the base experience requirement. If you are short, the game tells you how many levels you need.[6][7]

The pack changed this recipe too.
Ways to warp
- Warp Scroll: you hold right-click to charge it. cooldowns.scrollUseTime is 32 ticks in this pack.[6]
- Warp Stone: it is rechargeable and also charges while you hold right-click, for 32 ticks (cooldowns.warpStoneUseTime). Its cooldown (cooldowns.warpStoneCooldown) is 300 seconds. The cooldown is bound to you, not the item, so several Warp Stones share the same one.[1][6]
- Warp Plate: you stand on top of it for 20 ticks (cooldowns.warpPlateUseTime) to use it.[6]
- Inventory button: an optional button that warps you without any item. Its cooldown (cooldowns.inventoryButtonCooldown) is 300 seconds.[1][6]
Global waystones used through the inventory button or a Warp Stone also get a cooldown multiplier. The pack sets cooldowns.globalWaystoneCooldownMultiplier to 1.[6]
The inventory button can be set to no button, a button that teleports to the nearest waystone, a button that opens the waystone selection menu, or a button that teleports to one named waystone. The pack's inventoryButton.inventoryButton value is an empty string.[6]
Warp Plates and shards
The Warp Plate recipe is changed in this pack.[8]
Crafting Shaped
| any stone brick | any stone brick | |
| any stone brick | any stone brick |
Recipe id: waystones:warp_plate
This is the pack's version of the Warp Plate recipe.
The tooltips mention an attuned shard that you insert into a warp plate and then bring to another warp plate. A shard can also lose its attunement.[7]
Sharestones and Portstones
A Sharestone teleports you to any other colorless Sharestone. A coloured one, like the Red Sharestone, teleports you to any other Sharestone of that colour. You dye a Sharestone by combining it with a dye, and you can turn a coloured one back to colorless with bone meal. The pack also changed the plain Sharestone recipe.[7][8]
Crafting Shapeless
- any red dye
- any sharestone
Recipe id: waystones:red_sharestone
Every colour follows the same dye pattern.
Crafting Shapeless
Bone Meal
- any dyed sharestone
Recipe id: waystones:clear_sharestone
Bone meal turns a dyed Sharestone back to colorless.
The Portstone works differently. Its tooltip says it can not be teleported to. Its recipe is also changed by the pack.[7][8]
Rules and restrictions in this pack
- restrictions.dimensionalWarp is ALLOW. The allow list (restrictions.dimensionalWarpAllowList) names only the Overworld and the Nether, so those are the dimensions you can warp between across dimensions. The deny list is empty and is only used when the allow list is empty.[6]
- Leashed mobs travel with you, including between dimensions (restrictions.transportLeashed and restrictions.transportLeashedDimensional are true). The Wither is on the restrictions.leashedDenyList, so it can't be taken along.[6]
- Survival players can place, edit and break waystones, because restrictions.restrictToCreative is false. Renaming is not limited to the owner, because restrictions.restrictRenameToOwner is false.[6]
Waystones in the world
Waystones generate in the Overworld, the Nether and the End. Free-standing ones are roughly 25 chunks apart (worldGen.frequency). They are also added to villages, though some villages may still spawn without one. worldGen.forceSpawnInVillages is off in this pack.[1][6]
worldGen.worldGenStyle is BIOME, so a generated waystone's look depends on its biome. The variants include the Mossy Waystone and the Sandy Waystone. You can craft a Mossy Waystone from a regular Waystone and a vine.[6][8]
A regular Waystone becomes a Mossy Waystone with a vine.
Generated waystones can be broken, because restrictions.generatedWaystonesUnbreakable is false. Names come from the preset list first, as worldGen.nameGenerationMode is PRESET_FIRST. The pack's preset list (worldGen.customWaystoneNames) is empty.[6]
Activated waystones emit particles, since client.disableParticles is false. They also show up on JourneyMap, since compatibility.displayWaystonesOnJourneyMap is true.[6]
How do you progress through Waystones?
5 parts
Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 4.0 guide
Waystones progression in this pack is short, and it mostly flows from one item: the Warp Stone. The Waystone, Mossy Waystone, Sandy Waystone, Sharestone and Portstone recipes all use it, so getting it early opens up most of the mod.[3]
Stage 1: Warp Stone
The pack changed the Warp Stone recipe, so don't rely on what you remember from the mod's defaults. Check the recipe below.[3]
Crafting Shaped
| any purple dye | any purple dye | |

Recipe id: waystones:warp_stone
Stage 2: The Waystone and its quest
The Waystone is the core block of the mod. In the pack's quest book, a quest in "?" (Getting Around) sits in the Getting Started chapter and asks you to obtain one. It unlocks after an earlier quest in that chapter. The pack also changed the Waystone recipe.[3][4]
Crafting Shaped

There are also decorative variants. The Mossy Waystone has its own recipe, and you can convert an existing Waystone into one. The Sandy Waystone has its own recipe too. These are mod recipes the pack left unchanged.[3]

Recipe id: waystones:mossy_waystone

Next: Sharestones, Portstones and Warp Plates
Once you can make Warp Stones, you can branch out. The pack changed the recipes for the Sharestone, the Portstone and the Warp Plate.[3]

Recipe id: waystones:portstone
The Warp Plate uses Warp Dust rather than a Warp Stone. Warp Dust is a separate mod recipe that the pack did not change.[3]
Dyeing Sharestones
Sharestones can be dyed, and every color has its own shapeless recipe, for example Red Sharestone, Blue Sharestone and White Sharestone. These are unchanged mod recipes. A dyed Sharestone can be turned back into the plain one with the clear recipe shown below.[3]
Crafting Shapeless
- any red dye
- any sharestone
Recipe id: waystones:red_sharestone
Every color follows the same pattern with its own dye.
Crafting Shapeless
- any dyed sharestone
Recipe id: waystones:clear_sharestone
Scrolls
Scrolls are the portable option and use unchanged mod recipes: the Warp Scroll, the Bound Scroll and the Return Scroll. None of them needs a Warp Stone.[3]

How does Waystones work with other mods?
Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 3.6b guide
The clearest link between Waystones and another mod in this pack is the Warp Stone recipe. The pack changed it, and the new version uses an item from the tfc namespace alongside a vanilla item and a dye tag in the balm namespace. So the rechargeable Warp Stone depends on content from outside Waystones in this pack.[9]
Crafting Shaped
| any purple dye | any purple dye | |
| any purple dye | any purple dye |
Recipe id: waystones:warp_stone
This is the pack's changed recipe, not the mod default.
Balm is also a hard requirement for Waystones itself, so it has to be installed alongside the mod.[1]
Which Waystones config options matter?
5 parts
Everything here lives in the pack's waystones-common.toml. These are the values this pack actually runs with, so check them before you plan a travel network.[6]
XP costs
- xpCost.maximumBaseXpCost is 0. According to the config description, that disables all distance-based XP costs. xpCost.blocksPerXpLevel is 1000.[6]
- xpCost.dimensionalWarpXpCost is 3 levels. It's the base cost for travelling between dimensions and ignores block distance.[6]
- The waystone (xpCost.waystoneXpCostMultiplier), sharestone (xpCost.sharestoneXpCostMultiplier) and global waystone (xpCost.globalWaystoneXpCostMultiplier) multipliers are all 1.[6]
- The portstone (xpCost.portstoneXpCostMultiplier), warp plate (xpCost.warpPlateXpCostMultiplier), Warp Stone (xpCost.warpStoneXpCostMultiplier) and inventory button (xpCost.inventoryButtonXpCostMultiplier) multipliers are all 0.[6]
- xpCost.xpCostPerLeashed is 1, and xpCost.inverseXpCost is false.[6]
Cooldowns and use times
- cooldowns.warpStoneCooldown and cooldowns.inventoryButtonCooldown are both 300 seconds. The Warp Stone cooldown is bound to you, not the item, so several Warp Stones share one cooldown.[6]
- cooldowns.warpStoneUseTime and cooldowns.scrollUseTime are both 32 ticks of right-click charge-up.[6]
- cooldowns.warpPlateUseTime is 20 ticks, which is how long you stand on a warp plate.[6]
- cooldowns.globalWaystoneCooldownMultiplier is 1.[6]
Restrictions
- restrictions.dimensionalWarp is ALLOW, and restrictions.dimensionalWarpAllowList contains only the Overworld and the Nether. The deny list is empty.[6]
- restrictions.allowWaystoneToWaystoneTeleport is true, so you can hop between waystones by right-clicking one.[6]
- restrictions.globalWaystoneSetupRequiresCreativeMode is true, so only creative players can make a waystone global. restrictions.restrictToCreative is false, so survival players can place, edit and break waystones.[6]
- restrictions.restrictRenameToOwner and restrictions.generatedWaystonesUnbreakable are both false.[6]
- Leashed mobs travel with you (restrictions.transportLeashed and restrictions.transportLeashedDimensional are true). The only mob on the restrictions.leashedDenyList is the Wither.[6]
World generation
- worldGen.frequency is 25, the approximate chunk distance between freely generated waystones.[6]
- worldGen.spawnInVillages is true, but worldGen.forceSpawnInVillages is false, so some villages may still have no waystone.[6]
- worldGen.dimensionAllowList covers the Overworld, the Nether and the End.[6]
- worldGen.worldGenStyle is BIOME, so the look depends on the biome. worldGen.nameGenerationMode is PRESET_FIRST, but worldGen.customWaystoneNames is empty.[6]
Inventory button and client options
The warp button sits at x 58, y 60 in the inventory (inventoryButton.warpButtonX and inventoryButton.warpButtonY). In the creative menu it's at 88 and 33 (inventoryButton.creativeWarpButtonX and inventoryButton.creativeWarpButtonY).[6]
inventoryButton.inventoryButton is set to an empty string in this pack. The config description lists NONE (no button), NEAREST (teleports to the nearest waystone), ANY (opens the waystone selection menu) or a specific waystone name as the options.[6]
compatibility.displayWaystonesOnJourneyMap is true, so JourneyMap waypoints are created for activated waystones. client.disableParticles and client.disableTextGlow are both false.[6]
What changed in Waystones between versions?
1 part
All the Mods - Gravitas 3.4 ships Waystones 10.1.0 (the Forge 1.18.2 build). The mod has been in the pack since Gravitas 1.1 or earlier.[10]
Waystones 10.1.1 (newer than this pack)
The mod's 10.1.1 changelog lists two fixes: a Warp Dust dupe bug, and premature classloading of Sheets that stopped banner patterns from other mods working. This pack has 10.1.0, so these fixes are not part of Gravitas 3.4.[10][11]
Unverified No pack changelog entries for Waystones were available, so changes to the mod between individual pack releases are unverified.
