WHY I MADE THIS TOPIC
I searched far and wide through this forum, (using advanced search, ...) and I did not find any topic that is dedicated to answering this one question. I just recently created my first mod, and the first "discussion" on it asked "My game version is at 0.15.40 how do I get to 0.16". After answering that, I thought it would be useful to have a place to where I can link anyone if they ask it ever again. So no more trouble writing that short "how to" about "Properties > Betas", because I can always give links to this topic.
It's just... I figured that it is a missing piece of information that should have been provided somewhere.
