Dimension Access Manager Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Can I restrict dimension access by ranks instead of adding players one by one?
Yes, you can grant or restrict dimension entry per group as well as per individual player. Setting rules by group makes it much easier to manage access for staff, VIPs, or progression tiers.
How do I set up progression-based dimension unlocking?
Start by setting a rule that blocks everyone from entering the target dimension by default. As players complete milestones or quests, grant entry access directly to those players or move them into a group that has permission to enter.
How can I make a private world that only certain players can visit?
Configure the dimension's rules to deny entry to general player groups, then explicitly permit the specific players or group who own that world. Anyone else trying to travel into that dimension will be turned back.
What is the best way to handle a temporary event dimension?
Keep access restricted to administrators while setting up the area, then change the rule to permit regular player groups when the event starts. Once the event ends, revoke the group's access so players cannot travel back in.
Can I use this mod for singleplayer or LAN adventure maps?
Yes, singleplayer worlds run an internal server, so server-side rules still work when shipped with an adventure map. You can configure rules ahead of time to stop players from accidentally skipping ahead into locked dimensions.
Why can a player still enter a dimension after I blocked their group?
Check if that user has a separate per-player rule permitting them entry or if they have server operator status. Individual permissions or admin privileges can allow a player through even when their broader group is restricted.
What happens to players already inside a dimension when I lock it?
The mod's rules control dimension entry, which prevents players from traveling into a restricted world. Before locking down an event or private dimension, teleport any remaining players back to the Overworld or spawn so they do not stay inside.
Will adding lots of dimension rules lag my server?
No, access rules are only checked at the moment a player attempts to enter a dimension. Because it does not run continuous checks during normal gameplay, it has no noticeable impact on server performance.
