[2.0.16] Upgrade planner incorrectly supports captive biter spawner

We are aware of them, but do not have solutions that don't cause other issues. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

[2.0.16] Upgrade planner incorrectly supports captive biter spawner

Post by Legitimate Teddy »

In the upgrade planner, any quality of captive biter spawner may be selected, but only on the "to" side of the planner.
On the "from" side, it simply doesn't appear at all.
Attempting to set a "from" filter while a "to" filter is set gives an empty selection list.

Thanks for the report. Looking into this, this is a side effect of us deciding if destination values should exist without having a source entity. I don't see a simple answer to this so for now I'm putting this into minor issues.

Any update on this yet? Would be nice to clear this up in 2.1

No. Once something goes into minor issues it generally isn't worked on further as all known ideas were explored and rejected.
