 - 1.7 - Music will play every 20-30 minutes if found, use '/mvol 0' to stop playing music or disable in-game.
 - 1.8 - Players can set induvidual volume for sound and music which is saved.
 - 1.9 - Tidy code, refactor music playing, add biome name to sound_check.
+- 2.0 - Add Mineclone support, add ethereal leaf check, remove minetest.after for custom timer, add Polish translation, tweak & tidy code.
+- 2.1 - Add ambience.group_total() function for easy counting of group: nodes inside a set.

+Counting group: nodes
+---------------------
+
+Instead of counting each node total for things like leaves within the sound_check function, you could use the following helper function to return their total instead e.g.
+
+local number = ambience.group_totals(def.totals, "leaves") -- count all group:leaves
