[solved] My Entity in existing Technology, path?!

I am currently attempting to add my own entity to a existing technology. I've tried searching for an aswer and this is the code I found and my attempt.
Code: Select all
table.insert(data.raw["technology"]["automation-2"].effects, {type = "unlock-recipe",recipe = "assembling-machine-1.1"})
The error message I get when I launch the game is following:
Error
Error in assignID, recepie with name "assembling-machine-1.1" does not exist.
My recipe does exist. I've even copied the name to be certain.
Though if I change the code to unlock a recipe existing in the base, it works. Example of that code:
Code: Select all
table.insert(data.raw["technology"]["automation-2"].effects, {type = "unlock-recipe",recipe = "player-port"})
This is my data.lua:
Code: Select all
require ("prototype.item")
require ("prototype.entity")
require ("prototype.recipe")
table.insert(data.raw["technology"]["automation-2"].effects, {type = "unlock-recipe",recipe = "assembling-machine-1.1"})
What do I need to change?
Thanks in advance!

99% sure the problem is the name. Rename your entity/recipe etc to remove the period
assembling-machine-1.1

What does your recipe code look like? It seems that's where problem is but it's only bit of code you've not shown.

something along the lines of this is what is probably happening
name = "assembling-machine-1.1" --->
data.raw.item["assembling-machine-1"].1

I did try to rename it to assembling-machine-1-1 with no success. The recipie code below:
Code: Select all
data:extend({
{
type = "recipe",
name = "assembling-machine-1.1",
enabled = true,
ingredients =
{
{"assembling-machine-1", 1},
{"electronic-circuit", 5},
{"iron-gear-wheel", 5},
{"iron-plate", 5},
},
result = "assembling-machine-1.1",
requester_paste_multiplier = 4
}
})

Try "assembling-machine-shiny-1". The game does not like double 1's.

Guess what? I changed the name to assembling-machine-1one...
And it worked!
Thank you!
