Research a Technology again/Auto Recipe update

[Guest_4544]

Well currently when a mod adds additional recipe which is dependent on a Technology and if the player has the Technology has already researched, he cannot get it at all.
So I would like to suggest to add a button to let the player at least research the technology again to unlock those newly added recipe or if possible maybe add a detection mechanism that is loaded once when the saves is loaded that automatically unlocks the recipe.

Yes I am aware that there is a command to enable those recipe or doing it by migrations but to be honest that is annoying having to let the modder constantly check newly added recipes to see if they are unlocked upon certain technologies.

If a mod is changing or adding a recipe he SHOULD make sure that they are properly unlocked if the player already has the tech researched. Its his job and its a bug if he doesnt do that.

Yeah... I can see where the difficulty of having to add the recipe to a migration script, and it can be a bit tedious making sure your migration script not only includes all these unlock cases, but in the case of mine where an item might not even exist, depending what other mods are installed, a complete hash of checks all over checking each possible known combination case, and seeing if the recipe, or even the technology even exists.

So, tedious, but I can understand why it is as it is.


The one that does bug me though is having to call the update_technologies() and update_recipes() scripts if you change anything on any of them anywhere in your mod. I often just rename the latest migration script of my mods to the next number up because that's all they contain.
