This module allows much more modification of armour stands.

Previous Versions
MC 1.8 Version
The MC 1.8 Version did not have achievements. Additionally, to add arms to an armour stand, 2 sticks would be thrown at the armour stand. The sticks would disappear and the armour stand would gain arms. Throwing a pair of shears at an armour stand would cause it to become small. The shears will not be consumed or damaged. The book and quill feature was not in this version.
MC 1.9-1.12 Version
In the MC 1.9-1.12 versions, the advancements were actually a simulated achievement, using tellraw to show the message. This has been transferred to advancements upon the release of the 1.13 version. The "invisible" and "visible" tags were not implemented in this version.
Hermitcraft Version
In the Hermitcraft version, modified armour stands had to be crafted with a custom crafter.
