well, it sure has been a bit.
This took WAY longer than i thought, but… the server can now read and load vanilla buildings from the nbt data!!! Wohoo!!! This opens so many possibilities and its very exciting :D
Also, i have implemented a ton of missing blocks, including blocks that connect. Fences, glass panes, hanging lanterns etc now work properly! (hopefully, im still finding bugs with this. its way more complex than it seems).

Along with that, to go with the new villages, i have implemented proper trading! You can now trade with villagers, level them up and get more options! They also all have their specific clothing associated with their profession and all that!

Besides that, i fixed some bug reports i got on github, improved world generation blending with structures, and other small misc stuff here and there that is not that interesting. This is really taking shape and its getting closer and closer to vanilla every day. Happy about that :)
