# DistributedDimensions<\/p>\n
A Minecraft plugin system that splits a world across **one Paper server per dimension**, coordinated by a Velocity proxy.<\/p>\n

Crossing a portal feels identical to vanilla: inventory, XP, hunger, gamemode, and chat are preserved across all servers in real time.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## How it works<\/p>\n
1. Player enters a portal \u2192 the Paper plugin cancels the vanilla event
\n2. The full player state (inventory, XP, hunger, gamemode\u2026) is serialized and sent to Velocity via a plugin message channel
\n3. Velocity routes the player to the target server and forwards the message
\n4. The target server deserializes the state, finds a safe spawn location (or builds a portal), and teleports the player<\/p>\n
Nether coordinate scaling (1:8 ratio) and End platform spawning are handled automatically.<\/p>\n
## Requirements<\/p>\n
– Java 21
\n– A Velocity 3.x proxy
\n– Three Paper 1.21.11 servers (one per dimension)<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Configuration<\/p>\n
Each Paper server declares its dimension in `plugins\/DistributedDimensions\/config.yml`:<\/p>\n
“`yaml
\nworld: OVERWORLD # OVERWORLD | NETHER | END
\ndebug: false
\n“`<\/p>\n
The Velocity plugin reads `plugins\/distributed-dimensions\/config.toml`:<\/p>\n
“`toml
\ndebug = false
