Smooth Doors

Information

This mod acts like a tool that simplifies the creation of animated doors, gates, and similar mechanisms. What originally required very complex command chains since Minecraft 1.19, which can now be done with just one single command.

Instructions

Step 1: Build a flat area from any blocks you want that will later work as a door.

Step 2: Type in the following command in the commandline ingame (Press T):

/createdoor "name" "amount of blocks" "duration of animation (IN TICKS: 1 second = 20 ticks; 2 = 40 etc.)" "direction" "length"

Name: Any name you want for the door

Amount of blocks: How many blocks the door is big

Duration of animation: How long the door should take to open / close

Direction: In which direction the door opens. [e.g. ypos = the gate goes up when it´s opening; yneg = the door goes down when it´s opening); xpos, xneg, zpos, zneg = the door goes sideways when it´s opening (Look at your coordinates)]

Length: How far (in blocks) the door will open

Example: /createdoor exampledoor 4 100 ypos 2  ->  Creates a 2x2 blocks big door named "exampledoor" which goes 2 blocks up when you open it.

Step 3: After typing in the command, click on all blocks which are belonging to the door. Done!

NOTE: If you made a mistake with the command etc. -> just type in: /deletedoor "name" and try it again.

Functionality

When you give one of the blocks around the door any redstone signal, it will open / close with a smooth animation.

If you have multiple doors, you can craft and use the Door Controller tablet (you can find it in in the Redstone-Tab in Creative Mode) to steer all doors. You can enter times when the door opens and closes "Schedule Button" too.

Important / Known bugs

It´s my first mod, so there are some bugs I´m trying to fix in the future.
- If you are using multiple worlds, it could happen that you could steer doors of your other worlds.
- If you are playing with your friends, only the host can use the Door Controller at the moment.

- Flickering: If you see flickeing of the door blocks, remove the blocks where the door is inside or overbuild the space where the open door is in.

-> Please report other bugs you find to me

Future features:

Bug fixes and more animations like rotation or opening to two sides etc.
