Maybe this should be in the Medic or BE forums, but my orientation in this game has always been Doc...
I just tried to craft some of the new stim Bs, having respec'd to xxx3 in Medic (along with Master CM and most of Doc). Imagine my surprise when the schematic wouldn't accept any of my pre-CU crates of BECs, Liquid Suspensions, etc. Are all those items useless now, or is this some kind of cruel bug?

First of all, let me say that your question does belong in the medic or BE forum since that is where the crafting is.
The use of subcomponents in CU schematics is a little different than it used to be. The instant stim A, B, and C call for non-advanced subs. You can NOT use advanced subs in those meds. The only stim that will take an advanced sub is the stim D which you must be a BE to be able to make.
That being said, the pre-CU subs are in somewhat high demand right now since the pre-CU aLS cannot be touched by teh post-CU. The aBECs have more power now, but cannot get over 10 charges (might even be 5). I think the aCRDMs are pretty much a wash since the power is about the same, but the new ones will have 1-5 charges as well.
Start an auction on your server trade forum and you will likely find a buyer. Just don't expect a ton for em since the advantage isnt all that great (IMHO).

Ok sorry if i am being thick but i've found my pre cu ABECs etc work in stim D but you cant use advanced components in a,b,or c stims

Hmmm....I suppose I could respec to xxx4 BE, craft gazillions of Stim Ds and then retire.

I've discovered that I could still use my pre-CU Stim-B factory schematic. And it made Stim-Bs with the original stats, not the garbage stats that existing stims were converted to. /cry But I only had enough of those components left to make 40 of them!

Ah....how do you find this schematic, as opposed to the one that appears when you open the food and chemical tool? Do you have to go into schematics somewhere and search for it?

I will buy your pre CU components if you decide not to use them.
Just get in touch with me in-game or send an email.

It's a schematic you needed to create before the CU.
I got pretty lucky. Long ago (I mean long long ago) I made tons of schematics for 18p/23c ABECs, and a few 188 power ALS. I stuck them in my droid's datapad and forgot about them. Well the CU comes along, I test making things with the old components (however with the new ACRDM), and then I remember I have those tons of ABEC schematics. I'm now making 1255 power, 35 use stim D's.
Even when I run out of those ALS schematics (which I will soon), I can still make (about) 1140 power, 38 use stim D's, thanks to the charges on the new ALS.
