Space Exploration compatibility removal

[exeggcuter]

There was a recent update which removed higher quality modules. I, personally, hate this change. I am also not a fan of being unable to use Bob's Power or Bob's warfare. I am not allowed to post a copy of my workaround, but I am allowed to post detailed instructions.

Find where your Space Exploration mod is located.
This varies depending on what version of the game you're using but you should find a zip file named "space-exploration_0.7.36.zip" If you're having trouble finding it,
a search engine would be more helpful than me.
Edit the files inside the space-exploration zip file to make the desired changes.
I use a simple text editor to do this, but I imagine other programs will work, too.

File 1:

/space-exploration/scripts/compatibility/quality.lua

remove the insides of functions:
"Quality.on_player_cursor_stack_changed"
lines 108 to 143
"Quality.on_player_main_inventory_changed"
lines 148 to 161
//start from the bottom and work your way up so you keep track of which line is which.
//These are there to change existing higher quality modules to normal quality
//I haven't done enough testing to be comfortable removing the functions entirely. No sense removing functions other functions might be referencing. That'd cause a needless crash.

File 2:

/space-exploration/prototypes/phase-2/compatibility/quality.lua

line 526, change false to true
remove line 527
//This is here to prevent more higher quality modules from existing.

File 3:

/space-exploration/info.json

remove lines 42 and 46
//These mods are compatible in that they do not cause crashes or softlocks.
//Bobpower and Bobwarfare. there are others which are likely compatible but I have not yet tested those.

File 4:

/space-exploration/prototypes/phase-3/compatibility/recycling.lua
remove lines 54 to 58
//This would prevent the recycling of modules.

Hi, note that this only applies to Space Exploration version 0.7.36, the version before it doesn't do this, and the version after doesn't do it anymore.
