+The interesting part of this is in the build gradle

+paperweight {
+    serverProject.set(project(":ForkTest-Server"))
+
+    usePaperUpstream(providers.gradleProperty("paperRef")) { // specified in gradle.properties
+        withPaperPatcher {
+            apiPatchDir.set(layout.projectDirectory.dir("patches/api"))
+            apiOutputDir.set(layout.projectDirectory.dir("ForkTest-API"))
+
+            serverPatchDir.set(layout.projectDirectory.dir("patches/server"))
+            serverOutputDir.set(layout.projectDirectory.dir("ForkTest-Server"))
