[Rseding91] [0.17.28] inconsistent mod dependencies

Post by lovely_santa »

Hi,

While implementing an incompatible mod, I came across this issue:
info.json has 2 dependencies (one on base, and one incompatible mod) as shown below:

Code: Select all

{
  "name": "MoreScience",
  "version": "0.2.4",
  "factorio_version": "0.17",
  "title": "More Science",
  "author": "lovely_santa",
  "contact": "https://mods.factorio.com/mod/MoreScience/discussion",
  "homepage": "https://mods.factorio.com/mod/MoreScience",
  "description": "Changes the science pack recipes, take it to the next level. Just so it isn't always the same boring vanilla recipes...",
  "dependencies": [
    "base >= 0.17.23",
    "!MoreSciencePacks"
  ]
}
Ingame, in the mod manager this looks fine:

But when I look at the install tab, It only shows the base mod, and not the incompatible mod?

Thanks for the report however that's working correctly: you have a newer version of the mod installed locally and in the manage tab it shows the dependencies that new version has. In the install tab it's showing the version on the mod portal which doesn't have that dependency.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
