Missing default Iron Ingot recipe
Hi, I have an issue, as title says, I don't have iron ingot recipe available in workbench nor in smelter. My modlist is attached to this message (it's huge I know, maybe some of them are obsolete as they kind of do the same stuff, but I'm trying things, don't have luxury of putting a lot of hours into the game). There is also SMM debug zip attached if it's in any way useful in my situation. Help me please.

All mods disabled, didn't fix my problem.
do you have the category collapsed?
does it appear in the codex?
Solution
if you start a new save, is it available there?
Yeah, I have copper and caterium ingots available.
let me check new save
got iron ingot on new save
I guess one of the mods interfered with the initial recipe granting process...?
Thinking, maybe save editor? I bet there is a save editor for satisfactory.
it's certainly a weird situation, the recipes you have access to are supposed to be recalculated on world load
you could try, there are a few linked on the Tools page of ficsit.app
yeah found one and fixed my issue. I had one of tier 0 milestones not unlocked and not visible in-game. Unlocked it with save editor and now i can make iron ingots. I have one or probably more mods adding new milestones, probably that messed things up for me. Also I skipped tutorial which skips tier 0 and let's me work on tier 1 and 2 right out of the bat. I guess that was a bad mix. Thank you for your help.
