Buildable Structures

MF-SMP features a wide variety of new, buildable structures not available in the base-game. These structures that players can build vary in their functionality, from being used as a crafting station to having completely new purposes.

## **End Gateways**

End Gateways were introduced in the Gateway of the Stars update.

### Usage

This structure allows the player to travel between the two nearly instantaneously, even cross-dimensionally. In addition to the player initiating a warp at the End Gateway, up to 4 other nearby living entities can be brought through for convenient transport. While End Gateways are not very stable, and are prone to violent explosions upon damage, they allow for interdimensional travel as well. This makes them a viable traveling method after The End dimension has been reached.

### Materials Required

End Gateways require 12 Endstone Bricks, 4 Soul Sand, 4 Glowstone, 4 Blocks of Amethyst, 2 Obsidian, 1 Soul Campfire, 1 End Rod, 1 Lightning Rod, and 1 End Crystal to be constructed.

### How to Build

1. Place the Soul Campfire 1 block below where you wish to place the base Obsidian. (The End Crystal is placed upon the base Obsidian last and is the interactable object.) Next, surround the Soul Campfire with 8 Endstone Bricks.
2. Place the Obsidian above the Soul Campfire, and cover the sides with 4 Soul Sand in a cross shape. After this, place 4 Glowstone upon the empty corners.
3. Place the second Obsidian block 3 blocks above the first. (You want a 3 block tall gap.) Then, cover the sides with 4 Endstone Bricks in a cross shape, and fill in the corners with the 4 Blocks of Amethyst.
4. Place the End Rod on top of the 2nd Obsidian block, and then place the Lightning Rod above that.
5. Finally, place down the End Crystal, and you should hear a noise and see a message indicating that the first gate has been placed.
6. Redo steps 1-5 in the second desired location. (This can be in any dimension.)

## Altars

Holy and Unholy Altars were introduced in the Arcana update.

### Usage

Both variants of Altars serve unique functionality along with being another new crafting station.

#### **Holy Altars**

Holy Altars have the ability to instantly cure any sort of undead entity nearby it if its lectern is right-clicked. This includes Zombie Villagers, Zombified Piglins, Zoglins, Zombie Horses, and Skeleton Horses. Typically, the Holy Altar will affect any entity that would have been affected by the Smite enchantment. If an entity found by the Holy Altar is not of a curable sort, it will remove the entity from existence. This means that, while it technically kills the undead, no drops of any sort are given. This even works on the Wither boss but, again, no drops will be gained.

#### **Unholy Altars**

Unholy Altars are the opposite of Holy Altars, including with what its effects are. Instead of curing applicable undead entities, it will zombify applicable living entities. This includes Villagers, Piglins, Hoglins, Horses, Donkeys, and Mules. Horses that are turned into undead have a 50% chance of being either a Skeleton Horse or a Zombie Horse. Though the Unholy Altar is functionally similar to the Holy Altar as an opposite, it has a unique ability of being able to transform Skeletons into Wither Skeletons.

### Materials Required

Both Altars will require at least 1 Soul Soil, 12 Blocks of Lapis Lazuli, 1 Respawn Anchor, 1 Amethyst Cluster, and a Crafting Table.

#### **Holy Altars**

4 Blocks of Diamond, 8 White Candles, 8 Chiseled Quartz Blocks, 4 Quartz Pillars, 4 Waxed Blocks of Copper, and 4 Waxed Cut Copper.

#### **Unholy Altars**

4 Blocks of Gold, 8 Black Candles, 12 Polished Basalt, 4 Waxed Blocks of Oxidized Copper, and 4 Waxed Oxidized Cut Copper.

### How to Build

1. Place the Soul Soil below where the Respawn Anchor shall be placed. Then, place said Respawn Anchor atop the Soul Soil.
2. Surround the Soul Soil with the Altar's appropriate Copper Blocks; Cut Copper in the non-adjacent corners and normal Blocks of Copper adjacent to the Soul Soil.
3. Now place either the Polished Basalt or Quartz Blocks, leaving the far-most corners empty. The pattern depicted in the image is not required.
4. Place either the Blocks of Gold or Blocks of Diamond depending on the Altar type in the far-most corners that were left alone in the previous step.
5. Surround the entire structure so far with Blocks of Lapis Lazuli, at the same building height as the initial Soul Soil was placed.
6. Place the corresponding candles atop the gem blocks and in the cardinal directions on the ring of Lapis Lazuli.
7. Place a Crafting Table adjacent to the Respawn Anchor, not on top.
8. Finally, place the Amethyst Cluster on top of the Respawn Anchor.

Once the Altar is complete, a jingle and particle effects should display at the final-placed block for the structure that signifies you successfully built the Altar. If you missed something in the building process, the Amethyst Cluster will not allow you to place it atop the Respawn Anchor and attempt to inform you about what you may have missed.

## Trivia

* End Gateways show different particle effects depending on the dimension you are warping to.
