    Reforged mod gives us a flamethrower, but if I copy the parent recipes into vanilla config, I get no dice/joy.

    I'm assuming that the Reforged mod had a few more clues than I do to editing the config.ECF, I have also noticed the new to me at lease Itemconfig.ecf entries, and the item id's preceded by a + in many files. I'm sure the latter has little to do with add a constructor recipe/template, but keen to just try and hear if anyone is willing to share a discrete recipe for the grenade launcher and the flame thrower. I copied entries from the templates file in reforged over to vanilla, but I get a error "item 42 already exists" outcome for most of my attempts that yield anything notable. Grenade launcher recipe, I was able to add, the FlameThrower still eludes me.

    Which is kinda ironic 42, ironic? Anyhow anyone happy to share a recipe early?

    You need both the entry in the itemsconfig.ecf and the recipe in the templates.ecf. But there are numerous other changes overlapping that will cause other issues when just adding a single weapon.
    Vanilla is now using the same Flamethrower as Reforged.

    It's dependant upon the Grenade launcher, but I guess I did not test the grenade launcher and add it's ammo yet, so I probably want to do that first. It kept telling me the flamethrower was missing so I'm guessing now I corrupted when I copied it into my config.ecf . Will persevere, manily because changing the recipes and making them possible to, but still hard to craft is a lot of the fun of the game to me still.
