## Crystal portals: targets for #77–#78
## Library implementation (#76)
The operator-only test controls are `/rivencraft library test-spacing 8` (roughly 16× normal candidate density in newly generated chunks), `/rivencraft library test-spacing` (show the current setting), and `/rivencraft library test-spacing reset` (return to Legacy spacing). The override affects only the current Age, lasts only until server restart, and never retroactively places libraries in existing chunks. Normal sites remain eligible. A spacing of `1` attempts a candidate in every new chunk and may be expensive. `/rivencraft library nearest` searches nearby test sites while the override is active. `/rivencraft library test-place` is a separate OP-only manual test: it places a library about 13 blocks ahead of the player in the current Age if an 11×11×11 volume is clear, building a one-block cobblestone platform below it. The command reports the chest coordinates; it does not alter natural spawning or make the manual library a locate candidate. Move to open ground if the command rejects the site.
Libraries now use Legacy's 32×32-chunk region and 0–23 offset with salt `14357617`, one candidate per region. A candidate builds only on a dry, sturdy, nearly level 11×11 surface with clear headroom; its entire rotated footprint stays in that one chunk. Cave terrain is skipped, Void naturally fails the ground check, and Sky Islands can host a library only on a suitable island top. Rejected candidate sites are not retried elsewhere in the region. This is intentionally safer and sparser than cutting through a modern village, tree, ocean, or cliff. The building now places `data/rivencraft/structure/mystcraft_library.nbt`, generated from all 694 ordered Legacy block placements. The old two-block lectern locations are emptied in the template and replaced at runtime by one-block Rivencraft Book Stands with page loot. The chest is also populated at runtime. Regenerate the template with `python scripts/generate_legacy_library_template.py`; the script pins and checksums the Legacy source.
The cobblestone supports, stone stairs/slabs, planks, shelves, webs, one chest, and five book stands now follow Legacy's block layout via the packaged template. Players can also place a page on an empty vanilla Lectern, converting it to a Rivencraft Book Stand; sneak-use retrieves the page. The stand renders the page item and its symbol name rather than a book model. `libraries.loot_mode` is a server config with `LEGACY` (default) and `AGE_ONLY` choices. In `LEGACY`, the chest uses `data/rivencraft/loot_table/chests/mystcraft_library.json`, with 4–8 main and 1–2 bonus rolls; Rivencraft Ink Vials replace Legacy vials, and ordinary books/experience bottles replace its unavailable booster item. Stands use random catalog symbol pages, excluding generated block/biome entries. In `AGE_ONLY`, the chest and stands contain only pages from the Age's frozen authored active symbols, or its selected random terrain/features/biome pool; there are no supplies. If an Age has no eligible symbols, the stand falls back to an ordinary book. The Legacy rank ≥3 gate cannot be carried over because Rivencraft symbols have no rank field. A stand's page and Age-only chest pages are saved in block entities; Legacy chests keep their assigned loot table/seed. Neither rerolls on player interaction or restart. Config changes affect only future libraries; existing generated chunks are never retroactively populated.
For a manual check, create a fresh surface Age and run `/rivencraft library nearest` as an operator. It examines up to 128 deterministic candidates in a six-region radius, one candidate chunk per server tick; this can generate those chunks. It teleports only to a marked intact library with clear floor/headroom, or reports that none was found. Confirm one chest and up to five page-bearing stands, take a page and chest contents, leave/restart, and confirm they do not reappear. Right-click an empty vanilla Lectern with a Symbol Page; it should become a stand displaying that page and symbol name. Sneak-right-click with an empty hand to retrieve it and restore the vanilla Lectern. Switch `libraries.loot_mode` to `AGE_ONLY`, create another fresh Age, and confirm its new library contains only pages that describe that Age (no paper, books, ink or bottles); switching modes must not refill an existing library. Repeat with a second player and with Flat, Cave, Void, and Sky Island Ages: only suitable exposed surfaces should host a library. The archived generation GameTest checks deterministic spacing, negative-coordinate regions, the single-chunk footprint, Age-only page filtering, stand storage, and locator marker detection.
- A [Book Receptacle](https://github.com/Mystcraft/Mystcraft-Legacy/blob/9bc8ddc061845df0cd5ea47f4fdef773cff786ae/src/main/java/com/xcompwiz/mystcraft/block/BlockBookReceptacle.java#L58-L173) attaches to a Crystal Block on any face except downward and holds a Linking or Descriptive Book. The Legacy recipe is eight Crystal Blocks around an empty center. Removing the book or its crystal support deactivates the portal; breaking the receptacle drops the book. [`TileEntityBookReceptacle`](https://github.com/Mystcraft/Mystcraft-Legacy/blob/9bc8ddc061845df0cd5ea47f4fdef773cff786ae/src/main/java/com/xcompwiz/mystcraft/tileentity/TileEntityBookReceptacle.java#L23-L40) activates/shuts down on server-side book changes.
- [`PortalUtils`](https://github.com/Mystcraft/Mystcraft-Legacy/blob/9bc8ddc061845df0cd5ea47f4fdef773cff786ae/src/main/java/com/xcompwiz/mystcraft/portal/PortalUtils.java#L23-L104) grows portal cells through a connected crystal network. Its tension test requires opposing crystal/portal neighbors on at least two axes; this is more flexible than a single fixed rectangular frame. Active cells trace a path to one receptacle. Modernize the unbounded flood/path walks with loaded-chunk and volume bounds, server validation, and persistent block-entity state.
- [`BlockLinkPortal`](https://github.com/Mystcraft/Mystcraft-Legacy/blob/9bc8ddc061845df0cd5ea47f4fdef773cff786ae/src/main/java/com/xcompwiz/mystcraft/block/BlockLinkPortal.java#L208-L256) is translucent, non-solid, lit, validated on neighbor changes/random ticks, tinted by the book destination, and routes collisions to the receptacle's book. [`ItemLinking.onPortalCollision`](https://github.com/Mystcraft/Mystcraft-Legacy/blob/9bc8ddc061845df0cd5ea47f4fdef773cff786ae/src/main/java/com/xcompwiz/mystcraft/item/ItemLinking.java#L106-L119) marks travel external, maintains momentum, disables platform generation, and uses the portal sound. The book remains in the receptacle. #77 owns core behavior; #78 owns restart recovery, protection, multiplayer, cooldowns, chunk tickets, and deleted destinations. A buildable portal is distinct from the existing Star Fissure.
