Hey guys
I come to the forums for the first time to report a little something that disturb me with the new forge versions.
I'm running a private server and i like to keep the mods up to date to fix bugs and add content. The problem is that the item ids are automatically handled by forge now and i have no control over them. So when i try to update a few mods with new content usually (in 1.7.10) on my server, i get the message, on server launch, that some blocks/ items have their ids changed and i need to confirm or cancel. Not much choice, i have to confirm. Problem is some existing blocks get replaced it seems and world gets corrupted which means i cant log in at all, or there is no recipes for certain items etc.
Exemple : i tried to update Mekanism from Mekanism-1.7.10-7.1.2.177 to Mekanism-1.7.10-8.0.0.188. Everything loads fine, world is ok but when i log in i notice that my applied energistics (appliedenergistics2-rv2-alpha-29) has no recipes for certain items. It's even worse if i try to update thermal expansion to the last versions.
Is there an easy way to avoid/edit that or a better way to let forge handle item ids on already existing items/blocks on server?*
edit : mekanism problem solved with last update.
