I got the following crash report for bigfusion 0.0.2.0.1 built on ZC 0.0.8.2, through no fault of my own. I am confident you know what happened.

I will be updating my mod to fix this as that is possible, though you should be more careful with updates.

The ZC update is fine and almost a month old.

Update your mod or downgrade ZC

I did update my mod. My problem is not the update or what you changed but rather that you broke comparability with my mod, that has quite a long update cycle with a version released but two weeks prior. In Minecraft updating an API on the same Minecraft version should not break compatibility with older mods, do that on a MC version switch such as 1.11.

You really don't know what you are talking about...

Take a look, for example, at https://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/conventions/versioning/

So you will throw all normal API change conventions out the windows because of that, there was no Hey this is going to change so update your code. Something as simple as a (few) try/catch for a AbstractMethodError would have mitigated this problem.
