Suggestion

Make a 1.16.1 version. This version is the version speedrunners use, so it seems fitting that atleast 1 version of the mod should exist for this version.

Context

For context (or rather the reason I want this for Fabric 1.16.1) is that me and some others are attempting to train azul prime and a readynow file for optimization. If baritone can be used, it would allow us to automate some of the things attatched to this project we doing. Thank you!

1.16 is long out of support so a new release won't happen. However there are old commits made for 1.16.1 (port to 1.16.2 happened before first 1.16.x release) and if you build from one of those yourself you might get a working version.
Actually, I'm not sure when Mojang started to do bigger changes on minor updates and if 1.16 was before that change you might have good chances for any 1.16.x build to work on 1.16.1
