The description of Chemical Processing techs says "Research into to use and production of chemicals." Should probably be "into the use".
The description of the "Productivity limitations" setting in your Modules mod says "effect" when it should be "affect".
The description of the "Cheaper Steel" setting in MCI "If enabled, Steel will cost 2 iron plates in stead of 5". It only costs 1 iron plate now. Also, that should be "instead".
The items "exoskeleton equipment MK2" and MK3 don't have their first words capitalized.
At some point the horizontal_window_bounding_box and vertical_window_bounding_box on pipes changed in the base game. I don't think I've noticed anything wrong with the horizontal windows (the change is just a single pixel), but the vertical ones definitely look a little off in the top right corner. The new bounds are:
horizontal_window_bounding_box = {{-0.25, -0.28125},{0.25, 0.15625}},
vertical_window_bounding_box = {{-0.28125, -0.5},{0.03125, 0.125}},
thanks, I'll make a note of them.
Are you sure it should say Affect? I mean, when I look at it, I'll know, because I'm fairly sure I wrote that before I learned the difference. Affect is synonymous with cause. For example, if you drop a marble in a cup, the marble is the affect, and the ripples on the water are the effect. The Marble Affects the water, by causing a ripple effect. But then you can also say... The Effect of the marble on the water is to cause Ripples.
As for the Iron cost... The cost of the new steel process is cheaper, so it only costs one if new steel is enabled, but still costs 2 if it's disabled. But could probably do with an update.

It says "If enabled, modules that effect productivity can only be used on Registered intermediates." So "affect" would be correct, yeah.

Actually, on that one, BOTH are "correct".
The Module itself is the Affect, Productivity being increased is the effect of the module.
On the current statement, The module causes an effect seen on productivity
On your suggested statement, the productivity stat on the modules is an affect that causes an increase in productivity of crafting.
Personally, I still prefer Effect on this statement, because the way I see it, the Module itself is the Affect, and the change in productivity is an Effect. The Productivity is Effected by the Module.

To be precise, "effect" as a verb means to create something new, as opposed to "affect" which means to modify or alter something. In this case, the modules are not "effecting" productivity, because productivity already exists, it just starts at +0%, or in the case of mining drills, whatever % bonus you've unlocked with techs. Modules "affect" productivity by adding some amount to the productivity stat.
Either way, in terms of nouns, both of these are "effects". "Affect" as a noun means something completely different.

I haven't been able to load bobwarfare for about a year now, as it seems to run into conflict with something. Screenshot attached.

This is a bug with Angel's mods that they will be patching soon. Workaround is to enable Alien Artifacts.

Hi guys! Been a while since I have been on Bob's forums. But I have found a bug, I posted in Bob's Tech on the portal, but should also post here.
I have found that many items, including some of the Bob's science packs (Automation and Logistic), do not use the higher tier assembling machines (tiers 4, 5, and 6). I am using a lot of mods, but Bobs is the main focus overhaul compared to the others. Below are three screenshots showing my hovering info panel of which machines the packs can be assembled in.

Yes, I saw that. Thanks. I've not had a chance to investigate the issue yet. I'll post a proper followup once I have. But fear not, your report has not gone unnoticed

You need to update Bob's Functions Library mod. I forgot to update the minimum required version, sorry!

Thank you for the quick work! Very appreciative of staying on top of things.
Also, just to catch up, are you maintaining the mods in place of Bob?
