Disclaimer/History

This is a mod originally beautifully designed by Captain Muscles, lovingly maintained and added to by GrobmotoriGER, forked by Arodoid in collaboration with Ferny, and finally placed under the care of Ferny for the time being who will further work on the project. This mod would never have been possible without these excellent developers, and this is merely an addition to their work. If the original author(s) return, the code is theirs to use.
