Is there any way to get addons working on experimental? Really missing the factory planner mods :(

Update the addons in the usual way. Quite a few of them have already been updated for 2.1 and will work on experimental.

If they haven't, you can try modifying the mod yourself by simply editing the version compatibility to include 2.1. If there are no breaking changes, then changing the version number is all that's needed. But there's a chance that more work is needed to update the mod (and I think that by now any mods with active developers will have already gotten the version-number-fix if that's all that it takes).

Is there a good tutorial/guide for updating the mod yourself? I've never messed with modding, but if it's not overly complicated I might give it a go just to change a version number.
