Mod Portal and API "latest release" inconsistentcy issue
Posted: Tue Jun 11, 2024 4:32 am
The Mod Portal website and API give different results for the latest release of Bio Industries.
It seems like website also sorts by game version (or upload time?) before determining the latest release while the API does not.
Request used to the API: https://mods.factorio.com/api/mods?page_size=max. Specifying the game version in the API call gets rid of the issue but that is unfortunately incompatible with hide_deprecated=false.
edit: I guess this is also related to 66989
