CHIMERABOT'S WAYPOINTS - MINECRAFT DATAPACK
By Chimerabot
Thanks for checking out this datapack! It's taken a while to develop, and I hope you consider downloading it. It adds two major items to Survival Mode- the Waypoint and the Micropoint. Both create particle beams with a wide variety of uses. Screenshots of the recipes for each of the items is above.
The Waypoint: This item, a custom block, is based on a Dropper. You can put multiple crystals (described below) inside at once, meaning that you can create any color particle beam you want. Each different-colored crystal produces a different-colored beam. The beam always extends hundreds of blocks both up and down on its own. If you place a Quartz block on top of the Waypoint, it directs the beam downward. When a Quartz Block is placed below the Waypoint, it directs the beam upward. It is crafted with three Crying Obsidian, two Smooth Stone, one Redstone Lamp, and one Quartz.
Colored Crystals: These can be crafted with one Quartz and one of another specific item (screenshots above). When placed in a Waypoint, they induce a specific color of beam. You can place multiple crystals in the same block for any color combination you want. They are also used to craft Micropoints.
The Micropoint: Micropoints are similar to smaller versions of Waypoints, except they only have one color and must be placed on Quartz Blocks. They can be crafted with one Crying Obsidian, one Quartz, and one of any color of crystal. But you can't craft them on a normal crafting table; they have to be crafted in the Waypoint's GUI. They can also be placed on any face of a block, allowing for some new building possibilities.
Thanks again for looking at this datapack, and have fun!

Videos, Tutorials, Etc. That I've Used
- Timber Forge's amazing tutorial on custom items: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4. I also used his tutorials on custom blocks and custom crafting tables.
- And, as always, Bertiecrafter's excellent tutorial series on this site about the ins and outs of function datapacks.
