Been playing fossil and archeology mod for awhile and suddenly the analyzer recipe does not work anymore. I'm sure I'm putting in the correct ingredients but the box where analyzer should be remains blank. I have even been back to previous worlds where I have built analysers and they are still there but if I try to build more, I can't. The recipe just does nothing. All the other recipes seem to work fine.
Please does anyone have any ideas? This is for my 7 year old son who is obsessed with game, not me, but I feel so bad for him cos he worked so hard to get the game and get to where he is and now it is basically useless without analyzer. It's not just that the image is missing, there is nothing if u hover over right hand 'creation' box. This is the only mod I have on the game and I'm not tech savvy but we have not installed anything new between when it did work and now when it just doesn't. from left to right, bottom row - iron ingot, bio fossil, iron ingot. Middle row - iron ingot, relic scrap, iron ingot. Please does anyone have any idea???

Not sure if the recipe issue has been addressed, however I have some more information on why it isn't working.
The recipe calls for a bio-fossil, however bio-fossil drops tend to drop with meta-data (I.e. 5823:8 instead of just 5823) therefore, unless the un-meta data bio-fossil drops, you can't create it. This issue could be fixed by either having the analyzer be created by any meta-data bio-fossil, or by allowing a shapeless recipe to turn any bio-fossil into one without meta-data. If the mod-authors can detect this problem, I advise a hotfix, since without the analyzer the rest of the mod is pretty pointless.
