Since Bobs mods are simply fantastic I have created a well balanced modpack based mainly on the Bobs and Angel mods.

See https://mods.factorio.com/mod/schmitts-modpack

Looks good! I'd recommend dropping Bob's Greenhouse mod from the pack though. Angel's Bioprocessing does all the same stuff (plus a whole lot more).

Possibly look at including Artisanal Reskins mods? They provide a graphics overhaul for Bob's and Angel's mods.

Love it! Thanks for bringing this up :-) I have integrated the Artisanal Reskins mods in my Bob+Angel modpack https://mods.factorio.com/mod/schmitts-modpack

So whats the problem? That Bobs Greenhouse would be too easy to get wood? And with Angels Bioprocessing you can also generate wood but its harder (more fun)? Is this what you want to say? I am just guessing. I never tried producing wood with Angels. (Or at least I cant remember)

However that may be, I just trust you know my friend and I have kicked out Bobs Greenhouse mod out of my modpack to force the players to use the Angels Bioprocessing to generate wood. I guess thats more fun. So thanks for bringing this up!

No problem! Any questions, feel free to ask 🙂

We're aiming to have new versions of Bob's and Angel's mods released soon!

Sounds interesting. Dramatic changes? Or only minimal optimizations?

Lots of tweaks. Most significant changes are around wood/waper:

• Automated Wood production is available earlier
• Paper 1 has been nerfed a bit
• Paper 2 byproducts can be handled nicely
• Paper 3 has been buffed
• Phenolic Boards require paper
• Wooden Boards can no longer be made from paper
• Paper techs are unlocked at Green, Blue, and Purple science

Nice! Thanks for the info :-)

Cool! Thanks!

I tried out your modpack with a clean save and load order, however i get the following error "Complex_science_pack_Recipes 1.0.9 failed to load due to the index field 'steam-power' (a nil value). Which makes me deactivate that mod, and then it cascades with other mods having to be deactivated.

What if you start a fresh game? Then also errors? Are you only using the mods from my modpack or more/less?

//edit: There are plenty of Bobs/Angels/Artisana Updates today; I double check now if they have any (negativ) influence on my modpack.
//edit: You are right! I can confirm this error and I will fix that.
//edit: I fixed that. But there is also another error popping up due to latest Angel Exploration update: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/science-pack-dependencies/discussion/6586d24df5454e873273b3bd I have to fix that now as well.

On a new game, yes. Also thankyou for such a quick turn around on the fix, excited for when there's a fix for angels exploration :)

Currently all fixed. Should run fine.

But I will also do another update to make sure that current tech tree for the first minutes of the game is working fine with newest Bobs updates.
