Custom portal shape

[RandomMCrafter]

I have a non-rectangular portal in my hub, and I tried to set it up as a portal to Survival, but it wasn't being detected. For now, I changed the shape of the portal, but I hope to see support for non-rectangular portals in the future.

Nether portal right? Or water portal? For nether portal I dont think it actually checks shape - unless a config.yml option is set to check for obsidian frames. Which can be turned off if it is on.

I tried it with an end portal in the ground, maybe it doesn't support end portals. I haven't checked that.

Apparently, end portals can't be used but end gateways can. I used the command to get a custom portal block.

But if I used the command to get a custom portal item then why wouldn't it work?

Maybe the issue is different, in that vanilla doesnt fire the events for the portal anymore or something. Ill have to look into that then, there's been several weird issues with end portals.

Of course do check its not fixed with https://ci.mg-dev.eu/job/MyWorlds/321/ just in case, as there was some nonsense with the respawn event not firing

The issue has not been resolved in the latest build. Thank you for your help, though.

I'll try to get back to you about this, a lot of end portal related things broke with 1.21.2+, I'll just have to dive in and rewrite some stuff.

Reason it's complicated is that the server does this weird player respawning logic for end portals, and the bukkit events for it are kind of bad. With 1.21.3 it also got very buggy.

I tried this on the latest Paper 1.21.4 and Spigot 1.21.4 builds, but it works fine there. Whats the exact server version youre testing with? And what type of world is the end portal on?

Also, what does /mw endportal say in the world the end portal is at?

You can also try to see if a [portal] sign near the end portal makes it do something.

I tried a flat end portal built using /mw giveportal end item in the overworld, a flat world and end world, and they work in all. I did have to adjust /mw endportal mode default in some worlds though.
