Gateways To Eternity guide for Project Infinity 0.1 0.0.51.2 to 0.0.51.4-hotfix-1

Same as in the All the Mods 10 4.14 guide

Gateways To Eternity is one of the mods bundled in the pack. This version of the pack ships version 5.1.0, built for Minecraft 1.21.1.^[1]

It isn't a new addition. It has been in the pack since version 2.2 or earlier, so it has been part of the mod list for a long time.^[1]

Unverified The sources I have don't describe what Gateways To Eternity does, how it plays, or who it suits best, so I'm not guessing here. There is no in-jar guidebook or platform description to draw from.

Unverified As far as ForgeBase's data shows, the mod is not on the ATM Star quest path, and no quests in the pack involve it. I can't place it in the pack's progression beyond that.

Everything in Gateways To Eternity starts with one item: the Gate Pearl. You use it on a block to summon a Gateway, so making one is your first job in this pack.^[2]

Step 1: make your first Gate Pearl

The pack adds its own shapeless crafting recipe for the Gate Pearl, so you can get started without chasing the mod's other recipes. Here is the exact in-pack version:^[3]

Step 2: know the rules before you throw it

A Gate Pearl only works if the new Gateway would not sit too close to another Gateway, based on the current spacing. If there is no room, you get a message that there is not enough space to open the Gateway.^[2]

Once a Gateway is open, it fails in a burst of lightning in any of these cases:^[2]

• It cannot spawn a mob.^[2]
• An active mob walks too far away.^[2]
• The wave timer runs out.^[2]

Step 3: try the other Gate Pearl recipes

The mod has its own Gate Pearl recipes too. Good examples to look at are the Enderman and Emerald Grove ones:^[3]

One more thing to know: the pack has changed the Alex's Hell recipe from the mod's version, so check the recipe below instead of relying on mod defaults you may remember.^[3]
