Fans of Harry Potter will know that when Floo Powder is thrown into a fireplace, the flames turn "emerald green" and allow the user to teleport between fireplaces. With Floocraft, I aim to inject some of that wonderful sooty goodness into your Minecraft experience.
The best way to stay up-to-date with this mod is by following me on my new Twitter!

I'd like to thank everyone who put up with my silly questions in the Modification Development section; most notably Mazetar, diesieben07 and CoolAlias. Thanks also goes out to the mod reviewers who made this thing so popular, and the tutorial makers that taught me, in particular Pahimar, Wuppy and Scratch4Fun. Particular thanks goes to the thousands who downloaded and enjoyed Floocraft during the WIP stage and drove me crazy with all their bug reports - and indeed those who are still doing that. And of course, J. K. Rowling, for creating such an immersive, inventive, inspirational world... and for not taking legal action.
One more thing...
I put a lot of time into modding and want to carry on making fun things, so if you enjoy what I do and want to see more, please consider supporting me on Patreon. Thanks!
I have made an unofficial port of the spectacular ExRollerCoaster mod, updated for Minecraft 1.12.2.
Build wonderful roller coasters which can go in ANY direction, and the camera will twist and turn with you.
I'm not releasing it through the usual channels but I hope four years on this site makes me a trustworthy modder.

I decided it's not really work-in-progress anymore, so I made a new page for it.

I did a mod review for your Mod! Awesome work on it, I love it. One problem I ran into is that if I placed the sign before having a fire it would bug out on me and not work.

Thank you for your bizarre spotlight! I'd never considered Floocraft's trolling potential before. As far as I know it works fine on servers though - i. e. no one has told me otherwise since the last 1.6.4 build.
I thought the sign code had nothing to do with the fire - can you describe the 'bugging out', please?
Also my grandfather's earlobes are perfectly fine. >:( You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

Hmmm, I could have sworn I read that it wasn't working yet on multiplayer servers yet, my bad! It was fun doing a spotlight for your mod so no problem. =]
The problem i ran into was I would make the fire place, set a sign and add it to the network and then add the fire. Once I went into the fire and got to the transport menu, the newly made transport was grayed out and you could not click on it even though there was a floo fire burning.

Thanks for letting me know; I'll check this out soon.
Edit: I've done what you said but everything's working fine. Perhaps part of your fireplace was destroyed while you were standing in it? It's a bit of a stretch but that's the only situation in which I can imagine this happening. I'll look out for the problem in the future.

see our server information! info server soon opening
Thanks! I've been thinking about a Ministry of Magic admin card showing a record of all teleports, but I don't want everyone to know where someone has gone. When I learn how to do scroll bars, I may put this in.

So everything was going great on the server, then as soon as I used the teleport, I got a fatal error. And was kicked from the game, in order to rejoin, I had to restart minecraft. Works fine in singleplayer though, and the server itself didn't crash. (Using 1.7.10)

Stop treating mod devs poorly. These people mod as a hobby or as a service to the community, they don't have to take your suggestion and you are not entitled to anything from them.
Uh oh... unfortunately without a client crash log there's nothing much I can do. Do you have OpenEye installed? Maybe the log was posted there.

Nonono, MINECRAFT didn't crash, the SERVER didn't crash, everyone who tries to use the fireplace just gets kicked from the server with a fatal error. (If one person does it, only he gets kicked, everyone else stays)
Also, it only sometimes asks you to restart minecraft to get back onto the server, but that's irrelevant.
So, there is no crash either way, it just makes it impossible to travel. We're keeping the mod on the server to wait for it to be fixed, because it's a badass mod.
Maybe seek help? It's a pretty gamebreaking bug.

Oops! Sorry; I read "fatal error" and assumed there was a crash. It's been a tough week.
So it just says "Fatal error" when you get kicked?
I plan to release a new version soon which might help. Has the server ever been restarted with a fireplace already connected?

Actually that's to do with a different problem. Turns out the server was trying to call a client-only method! A fix will be out today or tomorrow, after some more testing.

Wow! Really great mod that has amazing potential. Much better aesthetics than the popular buggy Telepads mod!
Advice; You need to put tags like teleportation, teleport, portal or something like that somewhere in the title. Using searches does not produce this mod in the results and you are missing a lot of potential downloaders because of this.
Glad you like it, Amedean! I do consider Telepads to be this mod's rival, if I'm honest.
You make a very good point. I'll add "Teleport like Harry Potter" to the title. Thanks for the advice.

I found one small bug playing around with the teleporter. The Minecraft version I am using is 1.7.10 and Floocraft version 1.7.10-1.1. When I travel through the portal/green flame in one spot the green flame goes away at arrival of destination and turns to regular fire. I have to keep reapplying floo powder to travel back and forth. Other than that which I imagine would be a simple fix, it runs smoothly.
Otherwise, I do like your logic on how the teleporting network activates with the sign and green flame. It makes much more sense then how Telepads are activated. Telepads has an annoying bug in creative mode where you have to use a tool to properly remove the telepad in creative mode.
EDIT: This bug report was made in error. The mod functions correctly for Minecraft 1.7.10
