Nothing personal, but i wish people would stop overusing the word "better" for everything. It makes mods so difficult to tell apart from each other and sounds totally generic thanks to the overuse. Why not say "faster", "bigger", etcpp. when that's what they mean... there's more than one adjective in any language. [/rant]

I suggest: "2 Long Handed Inserters You'll Never Want To Miss Again." as the new name :P.

Heads up you copied the details from your other post so it has the info for your 'Better Repair Pack' instead of 'Better Long Handed Inserter'

Also highly suggest you change the name when making mods to something like "Walrus' Repair Pack" or something else, Better is used too often in a lot of mods unfortunately (not just factorio, overall) so it leads to confusion when people are looking for yours in particular.

Thanks for pointing that out I got it fixed now. Thanks for the tip for naming as well, however I do not believe there is a way to change it without creating a 'new' mod.

The in-game name is pulled from info.json, the mod portal name can be changed on the "Edit" tab. The file name can't be changed on the portal though.

Ok, thanks for the info. I'll work on getting that stuff changed for my mods.
