Update to 1.12.2 #3

@Funwayguy This seems like a really fun mod, any chance it can get an update?

I've been hesitant to update this mod past 1.7.10 for the reason that Minecraft's new chunk baking would not take kindly to the amount of blocks being eaten away. It's already bad enough that too many machines in the same chunks in 1.12.2 can cause noticeable dips in FPS. Void Decay would be on a whole other scale and would need some serious redesigning to not bring Minecraft to its knees (something on the scale of what Ore Excavation does on servers to maintain a stable TPS under load).

Not saying it's impossible but rather it would take a lot of time and effort. I'd have to weigh up whether it's worth putting the work into this or keeping my focus solely on Better Questing's ongoing rewrites.

Oh okay. Well, if you ever decide it you want to do it, please ping me. I used to do Minecraft modding so I might be able to help you here and there too.

I tried to port this mod on 1.12.2 and oh boy... It is super laggy. On my powerful gaming pc my fps drops from 300 with shaders and 512x texture pack to 30 fps on optifine fast render on, 4 chunks loading, no smooth/dynamic lights and fps boost pack xD.

Guess you found out the hard way that I wasn't kidding. The mod would be painfully hard to make work in a modern version of Minecraft without a massive redesign to the decay's approach to block eating.
