I'm basing my mod off of another port which has been archived, EmptyServerStopper by GHYAKIMA (They've taken it down alongside deleting their account). I couldn't properly fork their project, they had some dual development setup for both Fabric and Forge, couldn't make any sense of it, so I decided to remake it myself and add some features.

⚠ NOTE ⚠

An issue came up where versions before 1.20.1 aren't working, most likely because the mod was coded using Forge 47.2.0. I will attempt to remake the mod for any other version that is requested (Just open up an issue) since the mod really isn't that hard to make.
