This mod is a 1.21.2 ender pearl backport to 1.20.1! If you've been looking for a mod that makes ender pearls go through portals, this makes it so they behave the same way they do in newer versions. It effectively allows them to load chunks and lets you teleport cross-dimensionally. It also gives vehicles with passengers the capacity to go through Nether/End portals.
(This mod is server-side, players can join with a vanilla client. You can use it on singleplayer too.)
Features
These changes may seem little but they're actually so useful:
- Allows you to skip the annoying nausea animation of the Nether by just throwing an ender pearl
- Gives you an easy way to load chunks
- Makes moving mobs through dimensions easier
- Makes wireless stasis chamber possible!
I implemented this mechanics trying my best to stay accurate as they were implemented in 1.21.2 but I gotta admit it isn't EXACTLY accurate, so one or two things may differ from vanilla.
