I wanted to play a mostly-vanilla game, but have the additional pre-processing of ores from Angel's Smelting enabled. Since that requires petrochem and a few of bobs mods, I have of course enabled those. I don't really know if the resulting game is what I'm looking for, but when I assemble a minimal configuration of mods, the game no longer even loads. Error is attached as screenshot.
If I just click "restart" the error remains the same, but the mods to be disabled expand to include not just Angel's Refining, but also smelting and/or petrochem depending on factorio's mood as far as I can tell(those are then listed twice, for some reason).
I have also attached my mod-list.json, but for convenience and readability, these are the mods that I have enabled (all of them, even the seemingly unrelated ones):
- Angel's Infinite Ores
- Angel's PetroChem (needed for ange's smelting)
- Angel's Refining
- Angel's Smelting
- Autofill
- BaseMod (duh!)
- Bob's inserters
- Bob's Library
- Bob's Metals, ... ("bobplates", which is needed for angel's smelting)
- Bottleneck
- BurnerLeech A15
- Even Distribution
- EvoGUI
- HelMod
- Laser Beam Turrets
- Loader Snapping
- Picker Extended (Having this enabled makes the error message worse/more complicated, when it's disabled the error looks like the attached screenshot)
- Squeak Through
- Vehicle Snap
- Warehousing Mod
- YARM
- add-loader-u15
