[0.17.37] Modded / non standard entities are not available in upgrade planner
Posted: Thu May 09, 2019 5:45 pm
When using upgrade planner it is not possible to upgrade from entity that normally does not have a second tier level. In case of Alien Loot Economy Mod https://mods.factorio.com/mod/alien-module it's solar panels. For simplicity sake I would like to upgrade all my existing standard solar panels to alien solar panels - this is not possible.
I am not sure if this can/should be fixed by mod author or if it's possible for upgrade planner to detect items loaded by mods and see on what base entities they depend/extend and allow items to be upgraded.
Should I attach log as it seems very unlikely that it will help.
To reproduce: Setup vanilla with alien loot economy and try to use upgrade planner - solar panels cannot be selected.
PS. for some reason Alien Loot interferes with Campaign - I'll add another report for that.
