Startup is slower thank other mods, but i dont think, that you must do something here. It's not as slow as i think too slow. (Don't know, if this is correct english, but hope you understand me ;))
The mod itself seems to work properly. All recipes are ingame now.
Will test it over my playtime today ...

I have an update for you: It still happens with recipes, that were researched before the mod was added.
I juste run the mod, although i couldn't use it and now after some more research there are a few recipes., that I#ve researched in this time.
Maybe that helps you.

I do not want to use another mod, cause RM is the most likely for me.
No stress to you, but still try to fix it anyhow

Allright. So I will as a start do nothing with my game, and will wait, until you and bobingabout have found a workaround. Right!?

I'm sorry, but no. I do only have one save-file and the auto saves.
Auto saves does not work, because I've played without using the recycler for some hours, before I've searched for the problem. Thought it was my own fault.
After I've ended the session, I've overwritten my only one "normal" save.

Using your latest version in 0.16.7 loaded into an existing bobs plus a few others run. no recipes in the recycler. i tried: Save. exit, toggle mod off, load save. save again. exit. toggle back on. load save. save again, exit. load save. no change.
sigh :)

Oh dear. Another edge case. :(

If ...
