Overview
Nether travel is 8× faster than Overworld. 1 block in Nether = 8 blocks in Overworld. Portal linking requires precise coordinate calculation. Essential for fast travel and base connections.
💡
Pro Tips
Build Nether portal at Overworld coords ÷ 8.
Y-coordinate doesn't scale (same in both dimensions).
Portals link within 128 blocks (Overworld) / 16 blocks (Nether).
Obsidian frame: minimum 10 blocks, maximum 14.

Fun Facts
"Nether is 1/8th size of Overworld."
"Traveling 1000 blocks in Nether = 8000 in Overworld."
"Portals search for valid spawn within 128 blocks."
"Roof bedrock at Y=128 in Nether (Y=256 in Overworld)."
Formula: Nether X/Z = Overworld X/Z ÷ 8; Y stays same
