some recipes using groups with no match still show the group as an unknown item

[fluxionary]

the fix for #218 (#223) apparently doesn't solve the problem for all recipes, though it does fix the recipe in that issue, which i was using for testing. in particular, the recipes from the beacons mod still have issues:

local color = "red" -- example
local color_group = "excolor_" .. color

minetest.register_craft({
    output = "beacons:base_" .. color,
    recipe = {
        {"default:steel_ingot", "group:" .. color_group, "default:steel_ingot",},
        {"default:steel_ingot",      "default:meselamp", "default:steel_ingot",},
        {"default:steel_ingot",   "default:steel_ingot", "default:steel_ingot",},
    },
})

minetest.register_craft({
    type = "shapeless",
    output = "beacons:base_" .. color,
    recipe = {"group:beacon_base", "group:" .. color_group},
})

223 addresses the ingredient lookup when using the "copy to craft grid" functionality and possibly also the group filter in the craft recipe upon click.

I assume those functions still work properly and the group simply lacks a proper icon in the guide?

https://github.com/minetest-mods/unified_inventory/pull/223 addresses the ingredient lookup when using the "copy to craft grid" functionality and possibly also the group filter in the craft recipe upon click.

i haven't dug into the cause, but the problem still exists when i'm using that commit or the most recent commit.

replication should just be using minetest game with the beacons mod and unified_inventory installed

@fluxionary Which mod provides dyes with the group excolor_* ?

A few years ago excolor_* was removed from the MTG dyes. Wuzzy already complained about that: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/issues/2203

Which mod provides dyes with the group excolor_*

none that i know of. the expected behavior if there isn't a match should be to not show the recipe, i think.
