You finally obtained ten blocks of obsidian. You built a 5×4 frame, picked up your flint & steel and right clicked. BOOM! The portal just exploded when you tried to activate it. And it killed you in the process. Certain servers want to prevent players from travelling to the Nether dimension. And to achieve this, mods are used to prevent nether portals from lighting up or the portal itself may not work, even after activation. Nether Portal Boom Mod helps server owners to achieve the same result, but in a much more dramatic way. With this mod installed, attempting to activate a portal frame, will result in a powerful explosion that will kill the player and even destroy some of the obsidian blocks in the portal frame.
Features:
- Attempting to light a Nether portal results in a powerful explosion.
- Kills the players and even destroys some obsidian in the frame.
- Useful for servers that want to prevent Nether travel.
- The size of the explosion is configurable.
