Going through a nether portal into the overworld creates excessive amounts of bugged time machines #13

I've discovered a band-aid fix to restore the ability to go to the nether, but I have no idea how to fix the underlying issue, or whether chunks that have already been changed in the nether are recoverable. The steps I used are as follows: If you don't have NBTExplorer already, download it now. Once you have it, continue: Create a new world (I used the same seed as my broken world to ensure as little difference as possible in case that affects things, which it may not. Do NOT click "re-create world" as that will copy over the broken data, making the new world broken as well.) From this point I located the exact position that my portal was in the broken world and built it there with the exact same size in the new world. This may not matter, but minimizing differences yada yada. Then I went through the nether portal to load the chunks on the other side. Once loaded, I went back to the overworld, but this is probably unnecessary, as this world is only temporary anyway. I then saved and quit the world, opened the new world folder in NBTExplorer, and went to level.dat/Data/WorldGenSettings/dimensions and copied both minecraft:the_nether and minecraft:the_end tags, since both were missing from my broken world, and then pasted them both into the broken world folder in the same location. Loaded the previously broken world and went through the portal, and it worked!

From what I can tell about the issue itself, the mod messes with the nether in ways that are probably unwarranted and which I cannot comprehend. My best guess is that it tries to use nether portal triggers for its own function for some reason, but I'm not a modder.

Edited slightly for clarity.
