Pretty easy fix, you can do the surgery yourself if you are so inclined (no guarantees, etc etc):

$ git diff
diff --git a/prototypes/technology/technology.lua b/prototypes/technology/technology.lua

To further explain trippyd's post:

  • Go to the Factorio mod folder. Mine is C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\Mods
  • In there will be an "Advanced-Solar_1.1.0.zip" file. Expand it.
  • In the expanded folder, go "Advanced-Solar_1.1.0\prototypes\technology\ and open "technology.lua"
  • Make a new line 9 and add << recipe="advanced-accumulator", >> (without the << >>, but with the "" )
  • On line (now 17), remove the "-1" from the prerequisites.
  • Back out and re-zip the Advanced-Solar_1.1.0 folder. You'll have to get rid of the old one, as THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.

@quasipickle no need to re-zip since folders take priority over archives
