Sliders technology

_”What if you could travel to parallel worlds? The same year, the same Earth, only different dimensions.”_

**Slidersmod brings back the dimensional-exploration concept from the 90s TV series Sliders.
This mod adds the iconic timers from the show into Minecraft, along with a set of blocks and gameplay mechanics designed to stay fully Minecraft-friendly!
You’ll be able to explore completely random destinations — each with their own perks and dangers — for a duration you decide. Whether you take the risk is entirely up to you!**

REQUIRED MOD :

• Mekanism (REQUIRED)

• Immersive portals (= lot of incompatibilities with Immersive portal, especially Securitycraft !) OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

• In control ! OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

• Per Dimension Game Rules OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
• Patchouli OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

**
These 4 mods are actually REQUIRED BUT next update will make them optionnal **

Mod Content

• Immersive Portals integration
The mod leverages Immersive Portals to reproduce a vortex effect as cool as the one from the series!

• Crafting progression inspired by Mekanism
Most recipes are built around Mekanism resources, ensuring the Sliders technology isn’t accessible too early in your playthrough.

• Multiple custom dimensions
Featuring a tier-based dimension system with spawn probabilities:

• dimensions populated only by cats,

• dystopian worlds where the Nether has conquered the Overworld,

• worlds where time flows differently,

• post-apocalyptic landscapes,

…and more!

Some dimensions apply bonuses or dangerous penalties to the player — explore carefully!

• Functional and damaged timers
A working timer allows you to explore a random destination among many custom dimensions for a predetermined duration.
But if you try to force an early return, you’ll damage your timer, sending you into uncontrollable jumps with random durations and random worlds!

• Overheat system
Use your timer too frequently and it will overheat, forcing you to wait before rolling the dimensional dice again.

• Upgrade system
A freshly crafted timer is unstable and unpredictable — upgrades can make it far more efficient:

• reduced cooldown,

• reduced overheat probability,

• increased exploration time,

• access to exotic high-tier dimensions,

• … and more!

• Four types of timers
Each with its own vortex style and special abilities:

• Original Timer — the standard model.

• Egyptian Timer — can track previously opened vortexes.

• Exodus Timer — can store explored locations and return to them later.

• Logan Timer — targets the Overworld exclusively (upgraded versions allow increasingly precise landing points).

• Multiplayer-friendly utility blocks
To make the experience richer in multiplayer:

• Quantum Recall Station — open a return vortex on a previously marked player.

• Proto-synchronizer — share exploration destinations with other players.

• …and more to come.

• Raid system
Vortexes may spontaneously open and let through various “explorers”: villagers, wardens, or even your doppelgänger…
Sometimes it’s an opportunity to get a timer the “easy” way!
