What is the minimum version of my plugin?

Hello, the rules for publishing plugins say that you need to install the minimum version of the game in which the plugin will work. And how to do it? Do you really have to look at the update history and look for something added somewhere that you have in the plugin?

I always just choose any, I think if you are making a simple plugin(Only including JSON and graphics, like a house), you don't need to worry about the minimum version, but if your plugin includes Lua or GLSL, it is not the same at all.

"just choose any"? But there is a chance that the minimum version will be incorrect. Or can you just put the version on which you made the plugin and not worry?

I mean no minimum version limits, sorry for the misunderstand.

As I said, if you are a simple plugin, you don't need to worry about the minimum version because the min version depends on what JSON tags you are using, you can see the tags here. Most of the tags you might use were added in some early versions, and almost nobody are playing these versions.
Some tags you may see "Since version XXX", you can determine your min version according to it. But put the version on which you made the plugin isn't a good choice.
