OWB: Ultimate Tech Compatibility Mod
Technologies are nice, they’re what make nations tick and what sets apart Generics from Unique Nations. Many people have come together over the years and created expansions to various technologies and equipment that expands this facet of Old World Blues… but because of it being a multi-person work, they don’t exactly play nicely with each other.
This is where UTCM comes in, reworking and patching together "Roads and Rail", "Tech Expansion", "Tech Tree Rework", and "Power Armor Rework" to all be compatible with one another, as well as fully integrating the abandoned OWB: Robots Reworked into the same tech ecosystem. To rephrase: you should NOT use Robots Reworked if you have UTCM, as it WILL conflict.
Since it’s been wrongly assumed multiple times now, in other words:
It does this by merging any and all changes from the prerequisite mods into a single, "Foundational" mod, UTCM, and overwrites any extraneous files with blank slates that can’t affect the game. This is also how many of UTCM’s patches work, by making UTCM overwrite any changes and moving them to a unique file in each UTCM patch.

To get the most out of Power Armor and the Robots Reworked aspects of this mod, you will need to have the No Step Back DLC, however it’s not a hard requirement.
If you believe you have found a bug related to this mod, first try uninstalling and reinstalling UTCM and its prerequisites, either by going mod by mod or by deleting your mod folder and verifying your game files, and make sure you ONLY have this mod, any dependencies, and any mods that have already been patched before making a report about bugs, otherwise see the Compatibility section.
If the bug is caused by this mod, put it in the Bug Reports Forum
If you believe the bug is caused by a conflicting interaction with another mod, or wish to see what mods are compatible with UTCM, please go check out the Compatibility Patches and Issues Forum.

Note: Load Order does not matter for mods inside of the UTCM system, as they are set to automatically overwrite each other where appropriate.
