Uh I think it's possible to force stuff to load after other stuff with plugin things
No wait nevermind that's only for mixins
Oh wait but actually that's probably exactly what you want
In your mixin plugin, if you have one, there should be a method to specify stuff to load last.

Or even better, just mixin to the aether

I still don’t understand what mixing are supposed to do
But I guess that’s ok since I’ll learn when I need to use them

Replying toEmpressAutumnBut I guess that’s ok since I’ll learn when I need to use them
To put it simply, they change preexisting code
EmpressAutumn02:41
hm
Jack PapelTeam02:41
Mojang hardcodes some things which can make it literally impossible to change unless you inject and modify their code
EmpressAutumn02:42
right
I guess that's how mods like stone age make it impossible to mine wood by hand
Jack PapelTeam02:42
Yeah
EmpressAutumn02:42
that's good to know
Jack PapelTeam02:43
The syntax for them looks daunting at first but I think you'll come to find that they're pretty intuitive
EmpressAutumn02:43
I'm sure yeah
thanks for the explaination
Jack PapelTeam02:43
Yeah no problem

Also since jack did not mention it
You will see these things called Overwrites and Redirects
Avoid using these if at all possible
They are pure incompat juice
EmpressAutumn02:45
I've heard
I can imagine the errors those could cause
