ERM changes armored biter spawners by removing their original spawner and adding back a bunch of them with different levels and thus names, configurable by player.

Relevant code in ERM/prototypes/compatibility/ARmouredBiters/spawner.lua, makeLevelSpawners() at line 42 and the for loop starting at line 85.

Also, would be nice if the folder in your mod .zip had the same name as the zip or it makes it somewhat cumbersome to test stuff by extracting the mod as I'd have to rename the folder to make it work.

Even after removing ERM I seem to be getting the same error, how did you fix yours Hoho?

yea, I had some similar problems - added this mod, got the error, removed the mod got more errors as seemingly a whole lot of other mods I had installed but not enabled had been enabled.

In the end I just disabled all mods and synced with my latest save to get back to the setup I had when I last played

Yeah, im getting errors with Cerys and frost biters, even after disabling all mods and reloading. Not sure if the mod is changing the base game or if this is all somthing I can even fix. Even tried deleating both mod-list.json and mod-settings.dat

Not sure if they're fully related, but never had them do this before trying to use Metal and Stars

I'm beginning to think the problem that appears after enabling and disabling this mod is some kind of obscure bug in base game and has nothing to do with this mod in particular.

Might have found a temp fix for the errors. deleting config.ini somehow fixed it, and now Metal and stars can run

Updated to latest, still having the same error

No, wait. That was with 0.2. I'll try 0.3 right now

Nope, still the exact same problem with 0.0.3 as I showed on the screenshot.

I'm looking into this.

feel free to try again when you get a chance

The current last version still had problems but I think I figured it out. Metal-and-stars-graphics needs ERM and perhaps armoured biters as a dependency.

It looks like medal-and-stars-graphics gets loaded before the main mod but at that time neither ERM nor armored biters are yet loaded, at least not on my setup. Adding them to the info.json seemed to let it load up, at least.

Haven't reached in-game yet due to problems with other mods but I'm fairly confident updating the dependencies for the graphics mod will fix this problem.

I can confirm that the problem was fixed by just adding the dependency to metal-and-stars-graphics.
