[0.14.21] Getting Steam Achievements when disabling mods

Hey! I'm new to this bug report thingy, but I did search for "achievements" in both the known bug thread and the forum and didn't find anything, so I don't think it's been reported.

Anyways, I've played Factorio a bit before, but just recently grabbed it on Steam (already 24 hours sunk in though). So I did first create a map that I played a little bit on, got the achievements Eco unfriendly, Getting on track, It stinks and they dont like it and Mass Production 1 by playing that map.

However, I wanted some more train action, so I got the Resource Spawn Overhaul mod and installed it and created a new map. I played this map until I had also gotten Iron throne 1 and Solaris, though they only appeared in the game and not on Steam, that's when I read that any mod active disables Steam achievements. I can sometimes be an achievement hunter, and decided that I was going to disable RSO and play vanilla until I've got all achievements on Steam. But the moment I disabled RSO and Factorio had restarted, I got Iron throne 1 and Solaris on Steam, without even loading a save. My Factorio Achievements page on Steam says that they both are unlocked at "5 Dec @ 2:20am".

Fairly certain this is a bug, though if it's not I'm kinda happy lol :P

Duplicate of [0.14.16] achievements unlocked with mods [Minor issues], but I appreciate that you took the time to search first :)
