Hi~

I create turret mod and entity is add add add...

And I have to change the name to manage.
But if I change entity name, It is delete.

I want some way, Even if change entity name, maintain entity and renewal new name.

Is this possible?

Yes, you want to use an entity migration script. You can look at how we do it in the core mod migrations folder.

Specifically json migrations: http://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Migrations.html
