FTB Team Bases guide for FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.2.0 to 1.8.0

Same as in the FTB StoneBlock 4 1.22.0 guide

The only thing I can confirm about FTB Team Bases in this pack is that it adds the Portal Block, listed in the mod's own language file as "Portal Block".^[1]

I don't have a crafting recipe, quest or config option for this mod in the pack, so I can't give you a first-steps order or a recipe block for it. I'd rather leave that out than guess.^[1]

Unverified How you obtain the Portal Block, what it does, and how team bases are created or entered in this pack are not confirmed by the available sources.

Same as in the FTB StoneBlock 4 1.22.0 guide

The sources for this mod only cover its world generation data and one block name, so this section is short. Here is what is confirmed for this pack.^[1][2][3]

The start structure

The mod registers a structure called ftbteambases:start. It sits in a structure set of the same name, and the set contains only that one structure, with a weight of 1.^[2]

The set uses the placement type ftbteambases:one_chunk_only with cx 0 and cz 0. Going by the placement type and those values, the structure is meant to generate in a single chunk and not repeat across the world. The files don't spell out anything beyond that.^[2]

The structure itself is generated in the top_layer_modification step, and its start height is set to an absolute value of 64.^[3]

The ftbteambases:start structure set is also listed in the mod's default structure set tag.^[4]

Where it can generate

The structure is allowed in any biome from the mod's has_structure/start tag. That tag covers the usual Overworld biomes (plains, forests, deserts, oceans, mountains and caves), plus Nether biomes like minecraft:nether_wastes and End biomes like minecraft:the_end. It also includes minecraft:the_void.^[3][5]

The tag is set to not replace, so other data packs can add more biomes to it.^[5]

The portal block

The mod's language file names one block, the Portal Block, shown in game as Portal Block.^[1]

Unverified How the Portal Block behaves, how team bases are created and assigned, and whether the start structure is used for them is not covered by the sources. The mod has no config files in this pack and no recipes produce its items, so none of that can be confirmed here.

Team bases doesn't get a chapter of its own in the quest book. It shows up in the very first chapter, "Welcome" (chapter 1 of 31), which has 4 quests. Every one of them is a simple checkmark task, so you read the text and tick it off.^[6]

The Welcome chapter, quest by quest

• "Creating and Joining a team" quest: this one is for playing with friends on the same starting ship/island. A team is created for you automatically when you first join a world, so you type /ftbteams party leave in chat, then once more to confirm. After that, the party leader invites players with /ftbteams party invite <username>, and the invited player gets a chat message to accept or decline.^[6]
• "Found A Bug?" quest: if something doesn't work like it should, you can let the pack makers know on Discord or by making a bug report on GitHub.^[6]
• "Welcome to FTB Skies 2: Aero!" quest: the chapter's welcome quest. It has a checkmark task, and the book gives it no description text.^[6]
• a quest in "Welcome": this quest has no title, and it works as a command cheat sheet. It covers /sethome (name) and /home (name) for setting and returning to homes, /ftbteambases home to teleport back to your starting island, /back to return to a previous point (from a death or your last teleport), /spawn to go back to the lobby, and /spark tps to check the server's TPS and see if your world is lagging.^[6]

The quests above are listed in the order the chapter data gives them. That data doesn't say which ones unlock others, so I can't tell you a required order.^[6]

The only config value I can confirm for this mod in this pack is in the structure toggle file. There, start.start is set to true.^[7]

Unverified What this option does in detail, and whether true is the mod default or a value the pack changed, is not confirmed by the pack files I have, so check the file in your own instance before editing it.
