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]

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]

How does Waystones work?
5 parts
Waystones is a teleport mod, so there are no machines, power or fluids to wire up here. The core mechanic is simple: you activate a waystone once, and after that you can come back to it. You activate it with a Warp Scroll, with a rechargeable Warp Stone, or by hopping from an existing waystone.[1]
The mod is meant as an alternative to /warp and /home commands. Waystones can be made global for all players, and a configurable inventory button can let you warp without carrying any extra items.[1]
Sharestones: colour-matched teleporting
Sharestones link by colour. The plain Sharestone teleports you to any other colourless Sharestone, and each dyed version works the same way with its own colour. For example, a Red Sharestone sends you to any other Red Sharestone.[6]
Each dyed Sharestone has its own shapeless recipe, and there is a separate recipe that turns a dyed Sharestone back into a colourless one. Here are the plain Sharestone and the colour-stripping recipe.[7]

Crafting Shapeless
Bone Meal
- any dyed sharestone
Recipe id: waystones:clear_sharestone
This recipe turns a dyed Sharestone back into a colourless Sharestone.
Portstones and Warp Plates
The Portstone is one-way: its tooltip says it can not be teleported to. The pack changed its recipe.[6][7]

Recipe id: waystones:portstone

The Warp Plate works with attuned shards. A shard's tooltip tells you to insert it into a warp plate, and later to bring it to another warp plate. If a shard loses its attunement, the tooltip says so. The pack changed the Warp Plate recipe as well.[6][7]

The core items in this pack
The pack changed the Warp Stone, Waystone, Sharestone and Portstone recipes. The blocks here show the in-pack versions, so don't rely on the mod's defaults.[7]

Recipe id: waystones:waystone
The pack changed this recipe.
If you want a mossier look, the Mossy Waystone can be crafted directly, or you can convert an existing Waystone into one. The Sandy Waystone has its own recipe too. These are unchanged mod recipes.[7]
This conversion is a mod recipe, not changed by the pack.
Scrolls
The Warp Scroll is one of the ways to activate a waystone, and its recipe is the standard mod recipe.[1][7]
Crafting Shaped
| any gold nugget | any purple dye | any gold nugget |

Recipe id: waystones:warp_scroll
This is the mod's own recipe, not changed by the pack.
Pack rules: dimensions and XP
The pack sets restrictions.dimensionalWarpAllowList to the Overworld and the Nether. That list controls which dimensions you can warp from and to across dimensions. In this pack, only the Overworld and the Nether are listed.[8]
The pack sets xpCost.maximumBaseXpCost to 0. According to the config comment, this disables all distance-based XP costs.[8]
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

Recipe id: waystones:waystone
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]

| Empty slot | Empty slot | |
Recipe id: waystones:mossy_waystone
This converts an existing Waystone instead of crafting a new Mossy Waystone from scratch.

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?
2 parts
This section is short because the sources I have for this pack only cover a small part of the Waystones config. The options below are both in the common config file, and both are worth knowing if you plan to build a travel network.[8]
Cross-dimension travel
restrictions.dimensionalWarpAllowList controls which dimensions you can warp between. This pack sets it to the Overworld (minecraft:overworld) and the Nether (minecraft:the_nether). The option's description says it lists the dimensions players may warp cross-dimension from and to, so those are the dimensions this pack names. The End is not on the list.[8]
The option's description also says that if the list is left empty, all dimensions except those in the deny list are allowed. This pack does not leave it empty.[8]
XP cost for warping
xpCost.maximumBaseXpCost is set to 0 in this pack. According to the option's description, setting it to 0 disables all distance-based XP costs. So in this pack, how far you warp doesn't add to the XP cost.[8]
What changed in Waystones between versions?
1 part
All the Mods - Gravitas 3.5 ships Waystones 10.1.0 (the Forge 1.18.2 build). Waystones has been in the pack since Gravitas 1.1 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the modpack.[10]
I don't have any pack changelog entries for Waystones, so I can't tell you how the mod changed from one Gravitas release to the next.[10]
Fixes in the next mod release
The Waystones 10.1.1 changelog lists two fixes. Because the pack includes 10.1.0, these come from a release newer than the one in Gravitas 3.5, so don't assume they apply to your game:[10][11]
