Mass Upgrade not working
I just installed MU, v1.1 game
Researched and built the hand tool. It does not work on belts, on a lift I get a new Gear icon, but no text. So, MU does not work.

Solution
Mass Upgrade has been discontinued
Hello. I wanted to adapt this mod to V1.1 so I downloaded the source code on recompiled it. It worked perfectly. I disabled/uninstalled it and uses the mod available on SMM directly. It also works perfectly. I'm on V1.1 (last update). What is supposed to be the problem with this mod ?
Maybe bring this up directly to the author, if it works maybe something in the last few updates corrected whatever broke it in the first place?
I believe it was destroying people's saves
intermittently
There was a conveyor belt issue that was fixed in a patch after the mod was discontinued
:interesting: @Marcio <Checkers/Copier/WallSup> Is it possible that CSS managed to fix your upgrade/downgrade issue?!
I have no idea, I haven't look into it again
It sounds like it from this case!
The issue relied on reloading the saves, not using the mod itself. It would cause random crashes, something I could not fix
@jgueritte Bit more info for you!
1.1.1.2 patch notes, could be related:
hmm, if I have time I will look back into it, this weekend

any luck?
haven't had time to look into it
seems like the existing one might work in singleplayer, I will update the mod to Damaged instead of Broken

If this isn't the mod you were looking for, try a different spelling.

would you like me to update the modpage text to reflect that?

I don't mind, go ahead
if it is working and people are no longer crashing...
updated modpage 👍
Uninstalling the mod fixed the crash
It didn't happen instantly, I could use it for like 20 or 30 mins then it crashed my game, after going back in and even after deleting the custom tool it kept crashing
I was crashing every 20 to 30 seconds after the first crash
Also I had to manually replace every conveyor lift because they weren't moving items through the Floor hole
I know it's been a few weeks, but I've had the same experience as A Cute Trap, above. Uninstalling and clearing the belts in SCIM stopped that ConveyorChainActor crash for me, too. Haven't reinstalled, as it's the only thing that causes that crash (after several minutes post-upgrade).
I believe I found a bug with Mass Upgrade used along the SnapOn mod. If you Mass Upgrade belts connected to machines with Snapped On splitters/mergers it will cause the outputs on the connected machines to become unusable. I noticed this with refineries, I could not belt the output after deleting the attached merger after the Mass upgrade was complete. I believe it has something to do with SnapOn's hidden belt between the merger and machine, because when I deleted the refineries, the hidden belts were visible under where the refinery was, pointing in the wrong direction and upgraded to Mk5 belts (I think the hidden belts are Mk6 before upgrading). Besides this annoyance my game would immediately start crashing frequently, reverting to a save before the upgrades stopped the crashing.
Edit: you can avoid this by simply unchecking the mk6 belts in the mass upgrade menu.
Just wanted to put this out there if it helps anyone avoid some headache.
