Issues & Feedback
If you find any issues, report them on our Github issues page for this mod.
If you would like me to port the mod to other version, feel free to let me know. I don't plan to port it to versions older than 1.20.1 tho as there's already enough good mods with excavators.

Check out my other projects at my website!
