Please keep in mind that at any given time vast amounts of the mod may be edited or completely overhauled! These changes should not, but may leave existing worlds on older versions corrupted. Creating backups before updating to a new version is advised!

I want to reiterate that this is simply a passion project. It may occur that for longer periods no updates or bug fixes are being developed/released simply because I do not want to.
