Is there a way to manually update mods?

[Overene]

Like, if I want to manually update a 0.12 mod to work with 0.13 for personal use, can i do that?

Sure, open info.json and in the middle add:

Code: Select all

"factorio_version": "0.13",

For extra credit, fix all the breaking changes that 0.13 introduced.

I think I tried that already, though. The parts in the mod I'm trying to update still aren't showing up

Well, yes, that's how modders themselves create and update the mods.
There was also an attempt to create python script (in my signature) to automatically bring code to a new standards, but it tends to fail miserably on more obscure mods with non-trivial code.
Which mods are we talking about anyway?
