b Conflicting recipes with bobs

5 days ago

For recipe compatibility can you please make BRE Mk 1 bot for logistics & Construction as I've tried multiple ways now to removed bobs intermediates to be used in a not bobs sense tho i still use bob logistics for it belts & inserters. https://github.com/SGZ-Creations/Alt_Chemical_Processing/tree/main/Alt_Chemical_Processing/prototypes/BetterRobotsExtended

Thanks for the request!
I’ve updated BRE so it now automatically creates its own MK1 logistic and construction robots whenever Bob’s Mods change the vanilla robot recipes.
This means you can keep using Bob’s belts and inserters without being forced to use his robot intermediates, and your recipes will stay compatible.
There’s also a new setting that lets you force-enable the MK1 bots if you always want them available.
If anything else comes up or you need more compatibility, just let me know!

I'm happy fir the update tho i will say that you recipe change check does ruin some of the patching I've done :P I'm now having duplicated recipes... Also sent DM.

Thanks for the feedback!
The updated recipe-change detection can indeed trigger MK1 generation when another mod (or your own patches) already modifies the robot recipes. That’s why you’re seeing duplicated entries now.

To prevent this, you can set the MK1 mode to “Disable” — this stops BRE from creating any MK1 recipes and keeps your own patches intact.

If you want full control from your side, I can also add a small compatibility interface — for example a flag or trigger that your mod can set to tell BRE to skip the MK1 generation entirely.
If that would help, just let me know and I can add it!
