Problem:
When importing this blueprint string in a vanilla game it will not contain the bottom constant combinator.
Potentially as it holds an item (napalm) added by a 3rd mod.

Expected:
unknown items/signals are skipped individually as was the case with mods Foreman and blueprint String.

Thanks for the report. This is currently working correctly although it may not be the best way for it to work.

When importing a given entity if anything goes wrong with the import process the entity is discarded. In the case of constant combinators it tries to read the signals in the constant combinator construction, throws an error and the blueprint string import gives up on that constant combinator.

To change how that works would require re-writing every single entity-from-string constructor which isn't likely to happen soon.
