hey.. got back into my map and wanted to do more...
but now i have a problem.
1. chemical plant is as a buildable thing gone... i can't build them myself nor can i assign an assembler to build it. it is not listed in the list...
2. rocket fuel has the same problem. to add in on this, the assembler which where assigned to build that has it assignment deleted and now i can't build any more.

did that happen through any update ?

If you had a mod that altered the recipe, and at some point removed the mod, then this can happen.
Best thing to do would be to re-add the recipes via console command as shown here :

hm... that helped me quit a bit...
as i now know why this happend...
at some point into the game i was curious and installed "a bunch" of bob-mods... startet the game and immediately regretted it... so i went back and deactivated the mods and played with the save i started with mods...

so the game rewrite the saves you use with activated mods when you load them...
the save, without mod, was still overwritten. my save i tried to start now was roughly 1 hour playtime after that... with the problem I now detected...
crap... the closes save prior to the modded save is 10h older.... *wimper*

funny thing to add... the mods deactivate achievements... but reloading the save without mod seems to reactivate them?
if I try to make one of thouse commands, it warns me that they will get deactivated..
or is that a generic message wich pops up regardles if they are allready deactivated or not?

If I recall correctly, as soon as you mod, you lose Steam and "global" achievements. However, you still have access to local-to-the-game achievements, a separated achievment list that exists only within your game.
Console command totally disables these too.

ehr what?
you lose steam achievements ?
or only the possibility to gain them in this world/save?
