Backups.........oops

[Dave53280]

Updated to 1.1.4 from 1.1.3. Forgot Biomes O Plenty was disabled by default, and my world had been generated with it enabled. Got some cryptic "missing IDs" which I ignored, then found loads of bits of my world were missing. Double checked the mod list and realised I should have enabled them again.

So this world is probably unrecoverable now, and I've learnt an important lesson in taking backups.

As a request though, could the launcher make some basic checks before potentially trashing worlds? For example "You generated this world with a different set of mods - are you sure you want to destroy all your hard work when all those unrecognised blocks get deleted?"

That's generally what the "missing IDs" warning is supposed to be--if you're getting that message, you should look through your config files to see what the missing IDs were and try to figure out why they're missing.

Thanks ;-). Is there any way of rolling back the changes? For example whenever I start FTB it says it's "downloading" the map; is that from a location that's backed up at all?
