🚀 Quick Start Guide

Welcome to World Dimension Nexus! This guide will get you up and running with your first custom dimensions in just a few minutes.

📋 What You'll Learn

By the end of this guide, you'll have:

  • Created your first custom dimensions
  • Set up automatic player teleportation rules
  • Created portals for easy travel between worlds
  • A working multi-world setup for your server

⚠️ Before You Start

Important: Always test these commands on a backup or test world first! Never experiment with new commands on your main server without testing.

Requirements:

  • World Dimension Nexus mod installed on your server
  • Server operator permissions (OP level)
  • A test world for experimenting

🌍 Step 1: Creating Your First Dimensions

Let's start by creating some example dimensions. We'll create a lobby world and a fishing world.

Import Pre-made Dimensions (Recommended)

The easiest way to get started is with pre-made dimension files:

# Import ready-to-use dimensions
/wdn dimension import lobby_dimension.wdn
/wdn dimension import fishing_dimension.wdn

What happens: These commands import complete dimension configurations with pre-built worlds.

Create a Custom Dimension (Alternative)

If you prefer to create from scratch:

# Create a skyblock dimension
/wdn dimension create my_skyblock skyblock

Available presets: void, flat, normal, skyblock

Check Your Dimensions

# See all your dimensions
/wdn dimension list

You should now see your new dimensions listed!

🚀 Step 2: Setting Up Automatic Teleportation

Now let's make players automatically go to the right places:

# Send new players to lobby when they first join
/wdn autoteleport add always world_dimension_nexus:lobby_dimension

# Send players to fishing world when they die (optional)
/wdn autoteleport add on_death world_dimension_nexus:fishing_dimension

# Check your rules
/wdn autoteleport list

What this does:

  • 🏠 New players automatically start in your lobby
  • 🎣 When players die, they go to the fishing world instead of respawning normally

🚪 Step 3: Manual Teleportation

Test moving between dimensions manually:

# Go to your skyblock world
/wdn teleport dimension world_dimension_nexus:my_skyblock

# Go to the lobby
/wdn teleport dimension world_dimension_nexus:lobby_dimension

# Go to the fishing world
/wdn teleport dimension world_dimension_nexus:fishing_dimension

🏛️ Step 4: Creating Portals (Optional)

Create physical portals that players can walk through:

# First, go to your lobby dimension
/wdn teleport dimension world_dimension_nexus:lobby_dimension

# Create a green portal at your current location
/wdn portal create unbound green ~ ~ ~

# Now go to the fishing dimension
/wdn teleport dimension world_dimension_nexus:fishing_dimension

# Create the matching portal there
/wdn portal create unbound green ~ ~ ~

Result: Players can now walk through these green portals to travel between the lobby and fishing worlds!

✅ Test Your Setup

  1. Test Auto-teleport: Have a new player join - they should appear in the lobby
  2. Test Manual Teleport: Use the /wdn teleport commands to move around
  3. Test Portals: Walk through your portals to travel between dimensions

⚠️ Important Notes

  • Server Restart: You may need to restart your server for dimensions to work fully with all features
  • Backup First: Always backup your world before experimenting
  • Test Server: Use a test server to learn the commands before using on your main server

🎉 Congratulations!

You now have a working multi-dimension server! Your players can:

  • Start in a dedicated lobby world
  • Travel between dimensions using commands or portals
  • Experience different world types and environments
