Already working on it, it will be in next update.

I was not really advanced in game so only lost one burner furnace but if you have big base this might be a big problem.

For a partial fix you can make file 0.lua with this in it:

Code: Select all

for _, force in pairs(game.forces) do
  force.reset_recipes()
  force.reset_technologies()
  
  local technologies = force.technologies;
  local recipes = force.recipes;
  
  if technologies["chemical-furnaces-1"].researched then
    recipes["stone-chemical-furnace"].enabled = true
  end
  if technologies["mixing-furnaces-1"].researched then
    recipes["stone-mixing-furnace"].enabled = true
  end
end

and put it in migrations subfolder in mod folder. You'll need to extract the mod for this ofc.
This will fix the tech/recipe changes so you should see new things but it's a bit of bandaid. All old entities will still dissapear.

@AnonymooScoot
I'd recommend looking at base game data folder and migrations that are in it.
You should find some good examples of how json migration (for entity changes) and lua migration (for things like recipe/tech updates and enabling items on already reserched techs) work.

Also chemical and mixing furnace research 1 is mising prerequisities so it doesn't show up. And lack of migration means even if it's researched you won't get the unlocks. I've expanded example above with code to unlock those two if research has been already done. Research prerequisities need a separate fix.

And on new game they seem to be hidden behind research.

I do understand not making all the migrations while in development - might be worth mentioning after update that it might break existing bases.

We were more than 21 hours in the game, with a huge factory. You must put in the old stuff again and only add new things to the mod instead of replacing, or make a new mod if updates will break the map.

/c game.forces.player.recipes["brick-chemical-furnace"].enabled = true
/c game.forces.player.recipes["brick-mixing-furnace"].enabled = true
/c game.forces.player.recipes["stone-chemical-furnace"].enabled = true

Idea with cryogenics is cool too

What do you think of the inserters constructed according to the same scheme?

1) Inserter frame
2) Inserter arm - with 2 parts
3) Insererter claw


Separate thanks for ways of receiving chlorine from substances which can be chlorides or chlorine the containing substances by the nature - yes its some realistic too i like this

What relation quartz has to receiving sodium chloride? Why we can't get sodium chloride from water& May be we need "salt water"?

While the entities will be gone, you can still enable the recipes for new ones :

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.recipes["brick-chemical-furnace"].enabled = true
/c game.forces.player.recipes["brick-mixing-furnace"].enabled = true
/c game.forces.player.recipes["stone-chemical-furnace"].enabled = true
/c game.forces.player.recipes["stone-mixing-furnace"].enabled = true

People are going to be building huge factories and if they are broken just by updating it is unacceptable. Small changes like different inputs or readjusting pipes is ok but breaking the game by removing entities without replacement is an absolute no go.

please example code in fixing (he will try to replace it, what would the two mods worked)

And example codes in Angels mods work Petrochem mod and smelting
