It's the same error. Your Mac is still using Java 6.
The foolproof way of fixing this is to uninstall all versions of Java on your Mac, then install the Java 7. That'll force it to use the newer one.

My computer is using Java 7

Then by all accounts it should be working. If it still doesn't, then I've no idea how to help you...

Loose ideas: make sure you've downloaded the correct version of the editor (mac, 32/64), restart your computer, run java -version in terminal to confirm the default Java's version is 7.

I'll try to google around tomorrow, if the problem persists.

How do you pack multiple ships into one mod?

You have to manually put the ships' blueprints into a single blueprints.xml or autoBlueprints.xml (if enemy) file. Then throw each ship's layout and image files alongside them, just like they are with single ships.

Where do I put the ship file after it's finished? I just have a folder named PLAYER_SHIP_JELLY_2 on the desktop.. Also, where does the .ftl file go? I have tried putting it in the resources folder.. I've seen a video but he was using mods with the superluminal editor, and proved to be no help whatsoever to me. Please help, I severely want to mod in my own ship.

The PLAYER_SHIP_JELLY_2 folder is a "source" folder for your mod, so to say. That's what your mod looks like unzipped.
The .ftl file has to be loaded via a mod manager like Slipstream Mod Manager.

Simply download and unzip SMM, put your .ftl file in the mods folder inside SMM's directory, fire up the mod manager, check the selection box by your mod, click the Patch button and wait for it to finish.

Ah, thank you! Now, is it possible for me to turn the folder into a .ftl file? I normally like to see ways that I can cheat in a game after completing it, and realized that you can edit the files within the .ftl file in order to cheat. If so, then I'd like to know how.

Well, an .ftl file is just a renamed .zip. You can read about how to create one here
