How to make one mod override another

[jchardin64]

I'm using the AAI industry mod, and I'm trying to make a mod of my own that will alter one of the recipes.

So what I want is this:

Code: Select all

Base mod > AAI Industry > my mod

But instead what I keep getting is:

Code: Select all

Base mod > my mod > AAI Industry

Which leaves the recipe unchanged.

I've set AAI Industry as one of the dependencies in info.json, but no matter what I do I can't make my mod override the other.

Put the changes in data-updates.lua in your mod, instead of data.lua. If that fails too try data-final-fixes.lua. Depends on where AAI creates/changes the recipe.

To repent for your sins read Data Lifecycle 10 times.

Alternatively, add AAI as an optional dependancy (dependancy with a ? in front)

Do we have already hidden dependencies with "(?)"?

I'm not sure, but even if it is, it's so recent that I'd leave it out in case anyone isn't using the latest version of the game that doesn't support it.

OP said he already has a dependancy. (And no, optionals are 0.17.)
