Error at startup
I'm getting this error at startup (using Royalty, VFE - Power, VFE - Mechanoids and Save Our Ship 2:

its because sos 2 and my mod both define which research 2x1 vanometric cells are unlocked at. my mod changes it to after SOS2s research. does nothing else

As an idea, you could do a match/nomatch for SOS2, and move all research there. So:

<Operation Class="PatchOperationFindMod">
<mods><li>Save Our Ship 2</li></mods>
<match Class="PatchOperationReplace">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]/researchPrerequisites</xpath>
<value><researchPrerequisites><li>VanometricTinkering</li></researchPrerequisites>
</match>

<nomatch Class="PatchOperationAdd">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]</xpath>
<value><researchPrerequisites><li>VanometricTinkering</li></researchPrerequisites></value>
</nomatch>

Or a PatchOperationConditional could also do the trick, and check if research prereq already exists, if so replace, if not add.

Same with designation category.

<Operation Class="PatchOperationConditional">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]/researchPrerequisites</xpath>

<match Class="PatchOperationReplace">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]/researchPrerequisites</xpath>
<value><researchPrerequisites><li>VanometricTinkering</li></researchPrerequisites></value>
</match>

<nomatch Class="PatchOperationAdd">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]</xpath>
<value><researchPrerequisites><li>VanometricTinkering</li></researchPrerequisites></value>
</nomatch>

</Operation>


<Operation Class="PatchOperationConditional">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]/designationCategory</xpath>

<match Class="PatchOperationReplace">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]/designationCategory</xpath>
<value><designationCategory>Power</designationCategory></value>
</match>

<nomatch Class="PatchOperationAdd">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="VanometricPowerCell"]</xpath>
<value><designationCategory>Power</designationCategory></value>
</nomatch>

</Operation>

You'll want to replace your own patches in the Vanilla.xml file with these or the patches will cause duplication errors if anything else adds a category and researchprereq.
