3 years ago What you're seeing is a side effect of the storied history of S+. Yes, Beacon can do it better. I just have got around to it yet.
Years ago I had approached orionsun about getting S+ items listed in Beacon, but he really couldn't have cared less. So I did the work myself. It's not the way I prefer to do things, as the author is always better at handling their mod data than I am, but S+ was (and is) large enough that I felt it was worth doing. When he abandoned S+, Legendarsreign took the open source code and created Super Structures. He made the decision to use the same blueprint paths as S+ so that people could transition easily. At the time, Beacon treated the path as globally unique, so S+ and SS could not coexist in Beacon. Since S+ was abandoned and SS looked like the most promising replacement, I gave Legendarsreign control over the S+ mod data in Beacon and renamed everything with SS instead.
Then orionsun brings S+ back out of retirement and Beacon has a problem. It wouldn't be fair for me to take the S+ mod data back from Legendarsreign so that's how it remains. The S+ on the home page is kind of self-serving though, because it helps search ranking.
Beacon 1.5 can support both S+ and SS now though, so I have every intention of doing that, I just haven't got around to it yet.
I was checking out your website (as an admin Beacon has been on my To Look At List for a while) and I noticed that the link for showing the page for S+ was actually for SS. Mostly the same but there are a few differences so I thought you might want to change the page or the + to an 'S' for those who refer to that link.
Like the sounds of some of the updates for management. Keep it up.
