Custom Planets Screen

Now that you have your beautiful planets registered, players need to be able to join them.

Creation of the Resourcepack

First, you'll need to create the base of the resourcepack. The structure of the resourcepack should look like this :

├─ assets
│  └─ [namespace]
│     └─ renderer
│         └─ planet_screen
│             └─ star
│             └─ planet
│             └─ moon
└─ pack.mcmeta

TIP

[namespace] should be the same as your datapack

So as you can see, there are three differents folders.

The star folder This folder will contains all of the stars.
