About this Mod
Dimension Update Fixer
A simple mod that unyeets the Nether and End when a world is loaded without a dimension or is upgraded between
Minecraft versions with dimension mods installed.
This mod does now fix the issue where removing a dimension from a world deletes all other dimensions.
Jank
The way this mod fixes the dimension-removal issue is by mixing in and overriding the decode method inUnboundedMapCodec. This is somewhat of a janky fix and may break other mods that expect a certain load order for
DFU classes or that also attempt to fix the dimension-removal issue in the same way.
