[2.1.8] Quality modules in crushers deleted after upgrade (casino/migration) MR

Post by HighOnMikey »

Sorry if this is already reported/known. Did my best to search.

After upgrading to 2.1.7 or 2.1.8, quality modules are deleted in existing crushers set to any asteroid reprocessing recipe.

The save file is just a space platform built in 2.0.76 with numerous crushers containing legendary quality module 3s, all set to each of the reprocessing recipes and their qualities. When loaded in 2.1.7-2.1.8, these quality modules are missing.

I expected the modules to remain in the crushers and simply be ineffective rather than deleted from existence.

Thanks for the report however this is working correctly. The game will delete things during migrations if they're found to be incompatible and does not make any attempt to preserve them or put them anywhere.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Seems a little player unfriendly (hence the report) but it was easy enough to do prep work prior to upgrading. Thanks for the heads up.

Loving the 2.1 changes, btw, so also thanks for all the work poured into it <3
