Gateway to Eternity - Random Gate Spawning

              

This mod adds random spawning mechanics for gates from the [Gateways to Eternity](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/gateways-to-eternity) mod. It is designed to add suspense and excitement by making powerful gateways appear unexpectedly during gameplay.

How It Works

Every Minecraft **day at sunrise** (`time == 1`), the mod evaluates whether to spawn a gateway using the following logic:

Spawn Logic

• Selects a random player in the Overworld.
• Chooses a surface block 50–300 blocks away from that player as the potential spawn location.
• Spawns the gate at a random time during the day, not necessarily right at sunrise.

Spawn Chance Progression

• If spawning fails, the chance increases each day:
  • 20% → 40% → 60% → 80%
• After a successful spawn:
  • The chance resets to 20%
  • No gate will spawn the next day (to prevent over-spawning)

Visual Feedback & Integration

• Shows a notification when a gate is about to appear.
• If JourneyMap is installed:
  • A waypoint is automatically created at the gate location.
• A beam of light highlights the gate using FTB Map.
• The gate’s chunk is force-loaded via FTB Chunks to ensure reliable generation.

Dependency

• Gateways to Eternity (Required)
• FTB Chunks (Required)
• JourneyMap (Optional)
