(1.16.5 - x.x.x?) Custom "Gateways To Eternity" JSON Generator

[twin parrot]

Putting this .js inside your server-scripts generates a .json + a language key based on what entity id, gate color and reward are inside the gateData const

More info:

The script will generate a .json for all 3 sizes: small, medium, large
As traditionally, the Large Gateways always have a special reward according to the original JSON's, you can set the reward per entity by defining the item + item amount via largeGateReward.

The script has to be loaded two times. Once for generating the JSONs. Second, for loading the JSONs.

@bold viper Is there a way for me to "simulate" this JSON without writing it at this filepath?

Using highpriority.datapack or something

[bold viper]

I don't think something like that exists.

any1 tested if it works in 1.20.1 yet?

[twin parrot]

Have you tried?

[thorn walrus]

In 1.20 u don't need to do it this way, but the intended way

Does addLang work for 1.16.5?

onEvent('client.generate_assets', event => {
        event.addLang(`...`, '...')
//...

[thorn walrus]

i don't know

[bold viper]

It doesn't

The entire Event doesn't exist on 1.16 i believe

[twin parrot]

Just updated the js by not needing to write the datapack into the folder physically, but programmatically

Paste version of generate_gateways_jsonV2.js from @twin parrot

[twin parrot]

I'm pretty I could also add a "special" gatewayType with more custom entities per wave

[twin parrot]

If this is being loaded the first time, press F3+T to load the assigned gateway names

[twin parrot]

Ok, nvm this is a bad idea, it doesnt load correctly

[cloud forge]

Paste version of generate_gateways_jsonV3.js from @twin parrot

[twin parrot]

This also only works if empty folders exist in:
kubejs/assets/custom_gateways/lang/
&
kubejs/data/gateways/gateways

[twin parrot]

This change overrides all previous existing gateways from minecraft to always drop 32x diamond instead of a nether star for a large gate reward. Plus adds missing leash_range modifier to small gates
