- Retains sport property separate from profiles and versioned libraries for simpler file administration

Working

Operating: ./begin

- To run a Forge version add a suffix "-forge" to the model, for example ./start 1.17.10-forge player1.
- To see what regular and Forge versions are presently accessible for set up, run the script with a non-present model, like this ./start 0 player1, ./start 0-forge player1
- To create a game profiles with the same game version and same player name, for example to try out completely different mods, specify a reputation of this profile as the last argument ./begin
