This version supports a new major Minecraft version, some plugin sources might need to be updated or recompiled!

Many final constants are no longer constants, they are now marked with dynamic due to constant changes in updates
The size of the block data bits changed back from 6 to 4 to fix backward compatibility with Nukkit plugins
New chunk content versioning! Don't keep changing versions back and forth, or you will end up having some odd block states!

All usage of the numeric block damage system is now deprecated, new code should use the new block state system
Direct usage of static mutable arrays in the Block class are now deprecated, use the getters and API methods instead
Avoid using Item.get to get ItemBlocks! Use Item.getBlock or use MinecraftItemID.<the-id>.get instead!
