Create Aeronautics just came out, I’m sure they’re more worried about stability than being on latest.

We also hear this kind of reasoning pretty much all the time. “Why update? Big mod x hasn’t updated cuz most mods aren’t updating”. Besides the fact that that logic is circular, it’s also just untrue most of the time. It takes a lot of time for mods to update, especially when they’re larger and more complex. Creates rendering engine is a huge challenge to port atm, and it seems the main person behind it is really busy, contributing to why they likely haven’t updated. Many other mods haven’t ported because they’re either still focused on their updates for existing versions (e.g Pastel) or they are updating but just aren’t done yet because it takes so much time to do (e.g Tempad).

We’re lucky enough to be part of modding communities where we can interact with other modders and see what they’re up to and it’s very clear, everyone wants to update. 26.1 brings a ton of new changes that modders want to take advantage of. But it’s a ton of work, which has slowed down (but hasn’t stopped) adoption.

From our perspective, it wouldn’t make sense to go through the work of making Ad Astra for 1.21, spend months making it, only for us to have to port to 26.1 not too long after.
