Hello! If you are a developer and want to get a Lighty feature ported to an older version of Minecraft, here's how you'd generally do that:

  • Find out which commits introduced the feature
  • git cherry-pick the commits onto the branch of the desired Minecraft version
  • Fix any problems that may arise (if there are any questions/difficulties, feel free to ask me on Discord or open a draft-PR so we can discuss the problems)
  • Test if everything works like expected
  • Open a PR

Generally speaking, porting features from versions of the same major version (e.g.: 1.x.x to 1.x.x) should be fairly straight-forward, while porting features from versions of different major versions (e.g.: 2.x.x to 1.x.x) could be more difficult.

Here is a list of issues that I personally won't back-port, but I am willing to accept PRs:
