yourName_uniqueid.version

{
  # SETUP
  # 1. In `data/config/version/version_files.csv`, uncomment both lines (delete the `#`'s).
  # 2. Change `yourName_uniqueid.version` to, well, your name (e.g. wisp) and your mod's id.
  # 3. Rename THIS .version file that you're reading to be the same name you just picked.
  # Now, the game/Version Checker will look at `data/config/version/version_files.csv` and it will tell it how to find the file you're reading.

  # THE .VERSION FILE
  # Points toward the online master .version file. This mod works by comparing
  # the local and online version to see if there is a newer version available.
  #
  # The master file must be:
  # - Online (duh)
  # - Directly reachable (the URL goes to the raw file, not a redirect page)
  # - Permanently linked and editable without the URL itself changing
  #
  # GitHub and other online repositories make excellent hosts.

  # The current patch number
  # Notation is major.minor.patch, trailing zeros are ignored
  # This means version 2.1.0 shows up as v2.1, version 4.0.0 as v4, etc
  # If you use major.minor notation you can just leave patch as 0
  "modVersion":
    {
      "major": 1,
