--WARNING--

(Important points are highlighted in red)

IT IS NO LONGER NECESSARY TO CHANGE RANDOM TICK SPEED IN ORDER FOR THE MOD TO WORK AFTER UPDATE 0.1.

IF YOU'RE UPDATING FROM 0.0.3 TO A NEWER VERSION, IT IS ADVISED TO CONTINUE WITH THE CURRENT TICK SPEED SETTINGS OR CREATE A NEW WORLD.

The mod is currently being reworked from scratch. Join my discord to get updates.

The mod also requires Geckolib and Just Enough Items.

A SHORT OVERVIEW

This mod adds an infinitely generated retail store under the name of "Mokang Stores", the idea for which originates from the SCP-3008 creepypasta. It consists of recreated house ambients and rooms full of furniture, vending sections of materials and such. Basically what you'd find in a normal retail store, but adapted to the Minecraft game. The mod is, in fact, vanilla style (which means it follows vanilla style guidelines and "blends in" with the game context).

The concept has already been elaborated virtually into other games (like the 3008 Modality) and some theorized it to be made into a minecraft mod, but it never was possible due to infinite random generation of different structures not having been expansely explored by developers. For this project I have studied the popular methods of random dimension generation and combined them with a modular one based on probability.

ENTERING THE DIMENSION

First thing you must know, is how to enter the dimension of the 3008 store. Simply, respawning in a village house will almost certainly bring you to the dimension. It is preferable to have a profession block in the building (like a lot of village houses do). This means you can't enter with items on you (cause you don't keep items on respawn by default), unless if you have keep inventory on.

Upon entering, you'll be greeted by said retail store with a wall behind you and two on the far sides, but you'll find none going forward.

THE DIMENSION'S INSIDES

The structures you may find are random, and there are some pretty rare special ones to aid you in your survival.

There are 2 other floors, which you can travel between to find the exit. To travel to those floors, you'll have to find an elevator on the main floor.

Also be aware there is some fog in the dimension. Not too much, just enough to create some atmosphere.

THE INHABITANTS OF THE DIMENSION

You're not alone in this dimension. You may find other creatures, such as employees of the shop. They will be aggressive during the night.

If you are outside at night in the 3008 dimension, you may encounter another creature, the Eyeballer. He's fast. He's dangerous. So, always find a shelter at night. (also don't ever use wooden doors because employees can open them)

There is a day/night cycle consistent with the opening and closing hours of the store, an you can distinguish the times of the day based on fog color and light level.

You will occasionally find pillars, next to which there will be a computer that can display you a little tutorial about structures and creatures of the dimension.

That's about all the infos you need.

POSSIBLE FUTURE UPDATES

These are things that I may add in the future.

A Civilization Update: if this update will be added, I'll add a rudimentary civilization of survivors (villagers? or what else? I've yet to decide) that will spawn in 3008 similarly to villages in the overworld. It would stick with the original lore of the SCP-3008, and it would be interesting to make. Also I think it would be a very enjoyable feature.

Again, I am open to any suggestion on things to add.

You are completely free to use this mod in your modpacks, videos, etc. as long as you credit me (in the case you are making a video, please put the mod link in description).
