The Double Doors mod is a minimalistic yet highly functional addition to Minecraft, designed to resolve the inconvenience of opening multiple identical double doors, trapdoors, and fence gates one by one. This mod streamlines interactions with these common game elements by allowing a single action to control all connected or adjacent identical blocks. Whether you're building an elaborate castle with grand entrances or a functional farm with numerous trapdoors, this mod eliminates the repetitive clicking, saving you time and enhancing the overall player experience by making these architectural features more practical and responsive to your needs. This mod operates by detecting and activating multiple identical double doors, trapdoors, and fence gates simultaneously. When a player clicks on one of the doors, or activates a single pressure plate or button connected to them, the mod ensures that all associated identical blocks open or close in unison. By default, it searches for other connected door-type blocks within a range of 10 blocks, a distance that can be adjusted in the configuration settings. This recursive opening feature allows for complex door systems to be managed with ease. Furthermore, villagers are now capable of opening double doors, adding another layer of realism and functionality to your world. Crouching by the player will revert the behavior to opening only a single block, providing granular control. The Double Doors mod offers broad compatibility across several popular mod loaders and Minecraft versions. It is designed to work with Fabric, Forge, NeoForged, and Quilt mod loaders. The supported Minecraft versions include 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, and the 26.1 series, specifically versions 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, and 26.2. Importantly, this mod is required on the server side only; it does not need to be installed on the client. This server-centric design ensures that all players on a server will benefit from the enhanced door mechanics, regardless of their individual client-side mod installations, simplifying multiplayer experiences. Installing the Double Doors mod is a straightforward process, especially given its server-only requirement. For Forge, NeoForged, and Quilt, you should place the mod's JAR file into the 'mods' folder within your Minecraft server's directory. For Fabric, the installation process is similar, with the JAR file also being placed in the 'mods' folder of your server. Before launching your server, it is crucial to verify that you have the correct version of the mod installed that matches your server's Minecraft version and the chosen mod loader. Additionally, ensure that no other mods are installed that might conflict with Double Doors' functionality, particularly those that also modify door mechanics, to prevent unexpected behavior or game crashes.
