What is the problem?

PyAE spoilage now conflicts with Global Tick Timescale (GTTS) mod. I use GTTS to run Factorio at 120 FPS, but essentially half tick rate, so that it mostly increases FPS only.

The PU-241 element in particular causes a load error as below.

Steps to reproduce

1. Select full suite of Py mods and GTTS
2. Try to launch the game

GTTS is at fault here because it doesn't check the spoilage time it sets against the game limits.
