Important Changes

Since several RockPatch versions change a few tag names or whole logics, this page is meant for those who switch from one RockPatch version to another.

This page covers important changes that modders must adapt their mods to in order to ensure RockPatch functionality.
The changes are sorted by version. The section v1.08, for instance, lists the changes RockPatch v1.08 introduces.
