What?

In all seriousness, not entirely sure.

But basically, when you change the quality and speed value of a module in any way, both will be subject to the effects of quality.

Steps to Reproduce

1 - Download the attached mod and run the game with it
2 - Load a scenario
3 - Open factoriopedia / obtain any module, see issue

Expected behavior

The game does not scale quality with quality on prototypes... it should not exist on? Or whatever it's doing. Listen, day 1 modder here. I don't know what is going on but I confirmed it with someone else that something is hilariously wrong here.

Also just putting it out there that it should be easier to specify a parameter should scale with quality, but I digress and will probably make a post in suggestions for that later on. Bug still stands

I don't understand the "bug" here. Are you annoyed that the quality bonus you added to the module scales with quality?
Because that's intentional I think (negative quality bonuses however don't scale?).
If you don't like this, you'll have to post a suggestion in viewforum.php?f=28.
In particular, see the dev's response to a related suggestion viewtopic.php?p=642301#642301

what looks fine to me?

Thanks for the report however I do not see anything here that is a bug.

It's more the issue that this is finicky and, for example, only works with positive values. If the quality here is set to negative, nothing really happens, and it seems like it really should.
