) and have only done the code. I haven't actually done anything with the animations.xml.append, however I'm not sure if I have to do anything with that. On to the main point, though. SMM gives me this error when I run it through the 'Validate' function:Results
@ OP_WEAPONS.ftl:
---------------
~ This mod doesn't append. It clobbers.
FTL itself can tolerate lots of XML typos and still run. But malformed XML may break tools that do proper parsing, and it hinders the development of new tools.
Since v1.2, Slipstream will try to parse XML while patching: first strictly, then failing over to a sloppy parser. The sloppy parser will tolerate similar errors, at the risk of unforseen behavior, so satisfying the strict parser is advised.
And this is the code for my mod: (blueprints.xml.append)

I should have tried to run it... God, I'm an idiot. Oh well, I guess this should have been expected considering this is my first mod. Haha, thanks for the clarification about that not being a real problem.
