While working on a mod, I have been keeping some locale_en.cfg entries in the format 'identifier=' with no description/text.
In the technology screen, it shows the name of the techonology internally (in a style similar to: 'technology.unlock_chest)
However, if the same happens to the name/descriptions of an item and/or entity, they do not show up at all in the recipe screen/editor screen, respectively. The items still exist and can be inserted, and so do the entities, but they cannot be seen in the menus.
IF CHANGED: PLEASE MAKE IT LIKE THE TECH SCREEN!
[1.0.101] empty locale string removes items from menu
Re: [1.0.101] empty locale string removes items from menu
Thanks for the report. This is now fixed for the next release.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
