AetherGate

Universal Teleportation Update

Changelog

1. Added: When a player teleports, ownerless entities and player pets within the altar's range can be locked to teleport with the player. Each entity consumes one Ender Pearl.
2. Added: Debug command /aether fix <player>, used to reset a player's protected state. Use this if a player unexpectedly remains invulnerable after teleporting (theoretically should not occur).
3. Added: Compatibility support for Paper API up to 1.21.10.
4. Changed: Removed the mechanic where movement interrupts teleportation. It is now changed to opening a Book GUI and clicking to cancel during teleportation.
5. Changed: Redesigned the teleportation particle effects for better aesthetics.

Customization and Achievements Update

Update Details

1. Modified the blocks usable as construction materials, light source blocks/lamps, and the corresponding slabs for each type of brick to be configurable via a configuration file instead of being hardcoded.
2. Changed the command to /aether and /ag.
3. Added an achievement system, supporting multiple achievements and cumulative achievements for altars, and ensuring compatibility with the BACAP achievements datapack.
4. Added a special death message for players killed by altar explosions.
