I dialed the Address of Nether/End/Other Dimensions, why is the game telling me "Dialed Solar System has no Stargates" ?

Stargates only generate in the Overworld and Dimensions added by Stargate Journey. Other Dimensions have their own Addresses and can house Stargates, but unless you use a Datapack, they won't generate Stargates by default. If you want to make a Dimension generate Stargates, follow this Guide

I dialed a Milky Way Stargate, why isn't it rotating?

Rotating Milky Way Stargates is an actual game mechanic called Manual Dialing which is only achieved through the use of Redstone or Computers from ComputerCraft.

Is there an example of a ComputerCraft dialing program?

Yes, there is a very basic example of a program to dial the Milky Way Stargate here. There is also a video tutorial which goes through the steps of creating a basic dialing program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNi9NUAmOJM

A designated Dialing Computer block is planned for the future for people who don't feel like copying long computer programs just so they can dial.

What is the Address of insert_dimension_name_here?

7/8-Chevron Addresses:
Depending on your config/Stargate Network Settings, the Address may be the same as default or randomized. A list of Solar Systems and their default Addresses can be found here.
If you're in Survival Mode, you can find Addresses of different Dimensions on Cartouches you may find when playing. If you're in Creative Mode, you can use the address command to get the 7-Chevron Address, or the extragalacticAddress command to get the 8-Chevron Address

How can I find the 9-Chevron Address of my Stargate?

If you break the Stargate and hover over the Item, you will see a field that says ID followed by a string of numbers. Those numbers are the Address. If you're in Creative Mode, you can also use the PDA. Just right-click on any block that makes up the Stargate and open your chat window. You'll see the ID Address there.

How do I make a Stargate?

Not all Stargates are intended to be craftable, however, as of v0.6.8, you can make the Classic Stargate. Check out Getting Started to see how.

I'm playing with Common Stargates Datapack and I've found the Stargate, but there is no Cartouche nearby

When the Common Stargates Datapack is installed, Stargate Pedestals will generate around the world. However, unlike the Buried Stargate, these do not come with a Cartouche. Instead the Cartouches with Abydos Address generate around the Overworld randomly, so just go and look around the world until you see a structure that looks like the one pictured below:

I'm playing with All The Mods 9 and I've found the Stargate, but there is no Cartouche nearby

All The Mods 9 uses an altered version of the Common Stargates Datapack. See: I'm playing with Common Stargates Datapack and I've found the Stargate, but there is no Cartouche nearby
