Hey Guys,

Like a fool I updated all my mods including Bob's, and it lost my custom config for a 33 hour save (no backup). I've set the options back to what they were before, including the ones listed below, but no matter how many time I reset technologies and recipes via console commands, the pumps are not getting the recipe back to produce water / lithia water from nothing.

The relevant options I've changed:

Code: Select all

-- If set to true, this will turn on the old recipes to get water and lithia water from nothing on the water pumps.
bobmods.config.plates.EnableGroundWater = true

bobmods.config.ores.EnableWaterOres = false
bobmods.config.mining.WaterMiners = false -- also tried true

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I don't want to abandon this.. as I said it's got 33 hour in it and is well and truly endgame... everything is automated

Water miners are unrelated to your issue, but, if you're not using ground water splotches, then you don't need them anyway.

Those settings look right. Try this command:

Code: Select all

/c for index, force in pairs(game.forces) do force.recipes["lithia-water"].enabled = true force.recipes["ground-water"].enabled = true end

Since they are unlocked with the pumps anyway, and only the pumps can use them, maybe I should just have the recipe available from the start, so this issue goes away.

Having said that, I plan to separate the pumps out of this mod into a new barrelling mod at some point, and when I do that, I'm not sure how this config would work.

This does indeed fix it. Thank you

Might be a good idea -- force them on whenever the config option is enabled so you don't get stuck like I did
