Starting a fresh free play, I can't make the incubated bacteria, because I can't make a petri dish. I can make empty petri dish, but not a petri dish. Looking through code... Looks like petri-dish-bacteria uses petri-dish, from recipes-mo, along with several references too it. There is reference in enzyme-pks to the empty-petri-dish. I have the Angel's Bio Processing installed as well, so that may be complicating things. Are AlienLife and Angel's mutually exlusive? Should be an easy fix maybe?

Should be an easy fix maybe?

no it isnt because its not just this issue. py and angels overlap a lot and even if you fix this problem your going to keep running into issues all the way down the recipe chains. you should not be trying to play with angels mods and py mods together.
