+# Aether 2 for Minetest
+This is a recreation of the Aether II mod for minecraft into minetest. All rights to texture assets are reserved to the original creators of the Aether II mod.
 
-  This is an attempt to recreate the Aether mod for minetest from being a minecraft mod. I do not have any permission by the original creators of the Aether mod to create this. It is only meant to be for my own enjoyment and seeing if I can recreate the mod. I have no intent on makeing any money off this mod nor do I intend on taking credit for thing that I did not make myself.

It is only ment to be for my own enjoyment and seeing if I can recreate the mod. I have no intent on makeing any money off this mod nor do I intend on taking credit for thing that I did not make myself.
   
   If any knowledgeable minetest modders would like to help please contact me just note this is all done in spare time and may take a while to be finished.
   
   I am new to minetest modding so development of the mod may be slow especially for more complex blocks and items.
+  
+  
+  Mod Road map: (May be worked on out of order)
+    1. Get basic blocks and items in
+    2. add crafting recipies.
+    3. add tool groups so only aether tools affect aether blocks
+    4. add item uses
+    5. add armor enhancements
+    6. add mobs
+    7. work on mob ai
