## \ud83d\udcdd **Description**<\/p>\n

Explore the Nightworld, a similar world to the Overworld, but it’s always night and beds explode!
\nIt’s a perfect choice for both multiplayer servers who need the nighttime but can’t coordinate many players and for single players in search of a more challenging Overworld!<\/p>\n

![Minecraft Storage](https:\/\/minecraftstorage.com\/mods\/nightworld?ref=crystal-nest)<\/p>\n

## \u2728 **Features**<\/p>\n

– Required **only server side**!
\n– Compatible with both Vanilla and modded clients!
\n– Can be added to a server\/single player world at any time!
\n– Enter the Nightworld by creating a portal with **crying obsidian**.
\n– Similarly to Nether portals spawning zombified piglins, Nightworld portals can spawn zombies and skeletons!
\n– Respawn anchors work just fine!
\n– You can change the portal frame block to anything you like (yes, even multiple blocks!) with a simple datapack!
\n– You make so that only specific item(s) are able to light up Nightworld portals with a simple datapack!<\/p>\n

## \u2699\ufe0f **Configuration**<\/p>\n

To create a datapack configuration you have to follow a few simple steps:<\/p>\n

1. Create a datapack following this guide.
\n2. If you want to tweak the portals frame, define under `nightworld` namespace a block tag called `nightworld_portal_frame.json` that contains:
\n “`jsonc
\n {
\n “replace”: true,
\n “values”: [
\n \/\/ List of block IDs
\n ]
\n }
\n “`
\n3. If you want to tweak the portals igniter, define under `nightworld` namespace an item tag called `nightworld_portal_igniter.json` that contains:
\n “`jsonc
\n {
\n “replace”: true,
\n “values”: [
\n \/\/ List of item IDs
\n ]
\n }
\n “`<\/p>\n

That’s all!<\/p>\n
