b [FIXED] Error upon loading (both standalone and with Krastorio 2)

a year ago
(updated a year ago)

When attempting to load your mod alongside all my other mods I was met with a loading error.
Removing all other mods and leaving only Krastorio 2, still met with the same error:
"Failed to load mods: Error while loading recipe prototype "flat-solar-panel" (recipe): IngredientPrototype must be a dictionary and contain "type" property.
Shorthand format using an array is no longer supported in property tree at ROOT.recipe.flat-solar-panel.ingredients[0]
Modifications: Better Energy Production"

When attempting to load the mod completely standalone, I'm met with this error upon loading:
"Failed to load mods: Error while loading entity prototype "rusty-wind-turbine" (electric-energy-interface): Surface conditions are disabled and can not be used. Surface conditions require space-travel.
Modifications: Better Energy Production"

I'm stumped at what exactly might be happening here.

Hey,
can you tell me which Factorio version you are using?
I will have a look into that and release a fix today

I am playing version 2.0.60 (build 83512, win 64) to be as precise as possible

And in case this might help, the full mod list I initially tried to run Better Energy alongside is:
AAI Vehicles: Ironclad
Alien Biomes (+ AB graphic dependency)
Armoured Biters
Cargo Ships (+ CS graphic dependency)
Krastorio 2 (+ K2 asset, K2 menu, change inserter drop lane and factorio library dependencies)

Thanks for the information. :)
Precise as possible is always good :D
I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Appreciate it, and hope it is not something hard to fix!

From what I see in the error it sounds like some Factorio 2.0 migration problems, just a few lines :D

Do you have the Space-Age DLC?
If not this might be the error

No, I ain't got Space Age

Ah okay this is the issue.
I implemented some fixes in 0.5.2 which uses syntax that is only available when having the Space Age DLC/Mod.
Give me 15 minutes then it should be fixed.

Appreciate it!

Mod got updated to 0.5.3 :)
Did it fix your problem?

Works standalone, however, the loading error when loading alongside Krastorio 2 seems to remain;
"Failed to load mods: Error while loading recipe prototype "flat-solar-panel" (recipe): IngredientPrototype must be a dictionary and contain "type" property.
Shorthand format using an array is no longer supported in property tree at ROOT.recipe.flat-solar-panel.ingredients[0]
Modifications: Better Energy Production"

Whoops, let me have a look

Any luck?

Yes, should be working now.
Can you confirm?

Loaded without issue, tech appears, and the objects work!
