Moog's Nether Bridges

Moog's Nether Bridges is a set of six small bridge structures added to the Nether by Moog's Nether Structures. Each variant is a short span built from basalt, polished blackstone bricks, cobbled deepslate walls and crimson fence gates. Most variants also carry soul lanterns. The bridges contain no mobs and no chests, so they are landmarks rather than destinations. In Fear Nightfall they are rare: none turned up in a 26 km² sample of Nether terrain during the pack's testing.

Generation

The six variants, bridge 1 to bridge 6, are separate structure sets. Each one generates in the Nether and uses the same placement: random spread with a spacing of 427 chunks and a separation of 332 chunks. The spacing is the size of the grid cell in which the game places a bridge, which is 6,832 blocks on each side. The mod's default spacing is 148 chunks; the pack's Sparse Structures setting scales it to 427.

Bridges can generate in 16 Nether biomes, from the Nether Wastes and Soul Sand Valley to the Crimson Forest, Warped Forest, Basalt Deltas and Blackstone Basin. The full list is in the structure table below. Each bridge starts between Y 30 and Y 32.

The bridges are not among the horror structures that the pack places closer together, so they keep their normal density. Because the same placement is shared by all six sets, two bridges from different variants can generate close to each other. Where a bridge would overlap a larger structure, the pack's overlap guard skips the smaller one.

Layout

Each variant is a single piece with no rooms or floors. Sizes are given as width, height and length in blocks:

• Bridge 1: 5 × 5 × 9
• Bridge 2: 17 × 4 × 5, the widest and lowest span. It has no soul lanterns.
• Bridge 3: 5 × 5 × 9, the same size as bridge 1 with slightly fewer blocks
• Bridge 4: 5 × 5 × 13
• Bridge 5: 9 × 5 × 13, the largest variant by block count
• Bridge 6: 5 × 5 × 5, the smallest variant

The materials are basalt, polished blackstone bricks, cobbled deepslate walls, crimson fence gates and soul lanterns. Bridge 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 each contain between 2 and 4 soul lanterns, which are the only light sources in the templates. The templates contain no entities and no redstone, so there are no puzzles or traps.

Inhabitants

The bridges place no mobs, spawners or other entities. Any mobs found near them come from the natural spawning of the surrounding Nether biome.

Loot

The templates contain no chests, so the structure has no loot of its own. The loot table below shows any loot the pack attaches to it.

Tips

The bridges have no chests and no spawners, so a visit is mainly for finding the structure itself. To find one, use /locate structure mns:bridge_1 (or the matching number for another variant). This command requires operator permissions on a server, or cheats in single player. Bridge 2 is the one variant with no soul lanterns, so bring your own light if you plan to stay near it.
