When i enable the mod i get this error:

Failed to load mods: Error in assignID: item with name 'bob-turbo-inserter' does not exist.

Source: turbo-mdrn-loader (recipe).

thought it would help to report it here. but if its not fixable without removing bob's logistics then so be it

I'll need you to provide some more detail please. What version of the mod are you using. What other mods and versions do you have installed? Easiest answer would be to provide a save game that is reproducing the issue. That way I can track it down as it happens.

Factorio 2.0.47
Bob's Logistics mod 2.0.2
Loaders modernized 0.8.14
the error comes at game loading, not save loading

This should be fixed in the next release. I believe this happened when Bob's Logistics Inserter Overhaul setting is disabled.
