Hello. I am new to modding FTL. I created a ship mod with custom weapons thats all. But when i install its not in the game. I checked the data my ship files not found. I am using Slipstream Mod Manager v1.6 and it does work i played with other mods. I validated my mod why its not installing and it say this error:

Code: Select all

@ hackershipnormal.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.

Here is my ship config file and i dont have animations or something:

Please help me solve this problem. I love this game.

I solved 1 problem. <short></title> is now <short></short> but still the same error.

What a "clobber" means is that it replaces FTL's data, rather than simply adding to it. Are you sure your file is blueprints.xml.append?

Also, <sp> should at maximum be 5, since enemies can only have up to 5 layers of shielding. <fireChance> is a tag that determines fire percentage, but only works in intervals of 10; setting it to 15 implies a 150% chance of fire, which is also not right. In your later weapon, you set it to 100; you should actually set it to 10.

<ion> damage can go up to a maximum of 5. Your system corruptor has 500 ion damage, which does not seem like it would work well in FTL; either it would just crash, or it would do its maximum of 5.

Also, it's spelled Motherboard, not Motherbroad.

It also appears that you're starting the ship with drones, hacking, and artillery, which means it can't pick up any more subsystems.

And yes the file format is correct my files in data are: blueprints.xml.append , hackership.txt , hackership.xml , rooms.xml.append. Made with mod maker called: Superluminal 2 64bit. Getting still the same error in mod manager. Maybe there is a way to manualy install this mod correct way? because mod manager can't he hate me then. Soo what is the problem here? formats are correct,mod file is now correct. Ignore my 500 still left on ion i want to test it what happens ingame.
