The version compatibility display should also support minor versions

When creating content, you'll see a label ("Compatible with"), which allows you to select the versions the content is compatible with.

However, this only supports major versions (1.x, such as 1.21), and not minor versions (1.x.y, such as 1.21.3).

This didn't really use to be a problem, but now it is, because a few years ago Mojang started heavily focusing on resource pack and data packs, so now minor versions and even snapshots have a lot of breaking changes.

A good example is 1.20.5, because that made a very huge change to data packs.
Another one is 1.20.2, because it added macros, which is a huge addition to data packs.

Also I have a mod called SGrave, which supports 1.19.4, but not 1.19-1.19.3. It also doesn't support 1.21.2/3 yet.


This means that the version compatibility display should also support minor versions. Just a note that there isn't really any need to do this for versions below 1.19.

Edit: I want something different for resource packs, I want them to be able to support more than 1 version. It doesn't make sense to be limited to just 1 version.

  Have something to say?

This is so needed for datapacks, especially with the rapid changes with each minor version of 1.21. It ends up being misleading to the average user, because it might say it can run on 1.21.x, but really only works with 1.21.6+

Mostly data packs, but resource packs are also like this, especially in the new snapshot 24w45a where item models have been changed A LOT.

The resource pack page will update to 1.21.4 (or 5) when it releases.

Oh wait what? well, looks like you can't actually select a range of versions, just a single version, and this doesn't really make sense so I'm also adding that as a feature request.
