Version: 1.2.7
Date: 2023-02-06
  Changes:
    - Removed ability to place the planner in your inventory. It now behaves the same as copy and paste tools ("only-in-cursor"). Settings can still be opened through the top left menu button or shortcut (default now SHIFT + P)
    - Moved all default shortcuts from <Modifier key> + S to <Modifier key> + P, so it does interfere with running south while holding one of the modifier keys. Controls can be changed similar to all vanilla controls.
