How to decide what the next version is called. The 1.7.10 could also be called 1.7.8. Or maybe the names come from the creativity? (are thought up)
The version number? It's called counting. Whether there are numbers skipped, the developer decides mostly because of the content.
The 1.14 example was the new update the 1.14.1 1.14.2 1.14.3 1.14.4 have not added content change bugs and errors
The first number is the main version, so in the case of 1. This usually only changes when a software is rewritten from scratch.
The second number gives information about updates (with which new functions and the like come into play).
The third number is usually changed when errors are corrected.
Depending on the software, this pattern may also be deviated.
So there are software versioned by year and month of publication. There's also software that just gets a version name (such as Windows Vista).
You can read more about this here:
There's always counted up. That one does not get to see each version as a release (1.7.9) is due to the fact that this was probably handled for different reasons only within the company.
Whether there are numbers skipped, the developer decides mostly because of the content.
And how exactly?
The question sounds to me as if that is exactly what it is.
Front 1, middle the main version, that much should be clear. And the last number… (which I think you're about):
Creativity / Marketing I think. As you already appreciate.
That with each update the number increases is clear. But so important were the updates at 1.7.7 and 1.7.9 and so, really, not that you had to bring them out directly as a new version… Because of a single small bug fix directly a new version… Nope. So yes: marketing. "1.7.10" looks better than "1.7.9"
Internally, the versions are just further developed. Sometimes a version number does not appear in the release because bugs have been discovered and fixed. Then a publication just skipped. Internally, however, the numbers exist. That's why a 1.x.10 can't simply be called 1.x.8.
This hardly happens anymore. I think 1.7 was the last version where there was a 1.7.2 instead of a 1.7.1. But 1.7.3-1.7.10 was continuous.
This has nothing to do with marketing, but with consistency. Even if changes are not big, they are changes, they are logged accordingly and get a clear version number, so that afterwards (also as a player) can understand what was changed and when.
Where exactly 1.7.10 should look better than 1.7.9 is also a mystery to me.
You also misclassified the version numbers. 1 is the major version, 7 shows the number of major game updates, and 10 is the number of updates to update 7.
The 1 is always the same, nothing major version.
1.7, 1.8, 1.9 … Are the main versions, so surely the second number stands for the main version.
Yes, there's so much wrong in this wiki that one should rather not trust the thing. Technically, the whole thing is for the barrel.
The 1 is the main version, that's just the way it is. Of course, that does not change, because changing the main version would require a complete overhaul of the game, so those version numbers (especially in complex games) rarely change.
No, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 etc. Are the major versions, end off. I see it that way, and probably the writers of Minecraft Wiki see it that way. The 1 has absolutely nothing to signify.
Yes, just because you see it that way is still not right.
The other way.
Wiki agrees with me, so here you are the one who is wrong.
