Voidstone Starfarers

Quickstart

1. Craft a Star Chart: . Use it and choose Enter Void the Void to travel. Use the chart again while there to choose Return home.
2. Explore the regions and watch the Event horizon countdown on your screen. Find Carm Ore in Black Horizon and bring it home before time runs out.
3. Smelt or craft your haul into ingots, then make a full Carm Radiation suit before exploring Proxima b. Uranium Ore there can cause irreversible radiation poisoning if you get too close without protection.
4. To try the vehicle, craft a Star Scout: . Use it on a block to place it, then interact to pilot. Move to steer; jump to fire its Pulse.

Overview

Voidstone Starfarers centers on expeditions to Void the Void, a dangerous dimension of strange planetary regions and a vast voidstone asteroid near a black hole. Explore for new ores, craft glowing equipment, and travel in a one-seat flying Star Scout.

The Star Chart enters or exits the dimension; the planets are regions to discover by exploring, not separate destinations in the chart menu.

What It Adds

The dimension contains five named regions:

The mod also adds Carm and Void equipment, Uranium Ore and ingots, the Star Scout, and a throwable Singularity Seed.

How To Use

Use the Star Chart to open the travel menu. Choose Enter Void the Void to begin an expedition, or Return home to leave. Your Event horizon timer resets when you leave.

Use the Star Scout placer on a block to set down the vehicle, then interact with it to pilot. It flies and has one seat. While riding, jump to fire a Pulse projectile in the direction you are facing.

Use a Singularity Seed to create a brief black hole ahead of you. It pulls nearby entities and damages them, so keep your distance.

Crafting And Obtaining

Mine the ores with a pickaxe. Carm Ore is found in Black Horizon; Uranium Ore in Proxima b; and Void Ore in TRAPPIST-1e and Wolf 1061c. One Carm Ore crafts into three Carm Ingots. Smelt Uranium Ore and Void Ore in a furnace to make their ingots.

The Starblade and the Carm and Void gear have an enchantment-like glint and can be enchanted.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Event horizon: Time spent in Void the Void is limited to about six minutes per visit. The on-screen countdown shows how long remains; when it runs out, the event horizon kills you. Leaving the dimension resets the timer.
• Uranium radiation: On Proxima b, coming within about three blocks of Uranium Ore without a complete protective set triggers irreversible radiation poisoning. Wear all four pieces of either the Carm Radiation armor or Voidguard armor before approaching. Once triggered, the poisoning continues to damage you even after leaving the dimension.
• Singularity Seed: The temporary black hole pulls in nearby entities and hurts them; dropped items and experience orbs are unaffected. Use it carefully around yourself and other players.

Progression And Strategy

Start with a short trip to Black Horizon to collect Carm Ore, then return home to craft a full Carm Radiation suit. Wear it before exploring Proxima b for Uranium Ore. Void Ore from TRAPPIST-1e or Wolf 1061c provides material for Void tools and Voidguard armor. Keep an eye on the Event horizon timer on every expedition, and leave before it reaches zero.
