Hello.
Short time lurker, first time poster.
I dipped my toes into the beta to play with a friend on Linux (evidently 17 is much more stable in the upcoming version, which is great!), but when I try to go back to 16, the blueprints appear to be incompatible. I've haven't lost any data (but it was a near thing) but my prints are now locked into the 17 format. Is there a way back?
Thanks!
Convert blueprints from 17 to 16?
Re: Convert blueprints from 17 to 16?
It is theoretically possible (I believe the format of blueprint strings is public somewhere), but not supported in the base game and I don't know of any third-party tools that will do it. Factorio in general doesn't have much by way of forward compatibility.rossum wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 12:07 amHello.

There are 10 types of people: those who get this joke and those who don't.
