Question: Does anyone know what to do to make a custom NPC the new way? I have been following this tutorial to make a custom NPC: I realize it is outdated, but after following it I feel like it could still apply with a few changes? I did everything exactly the same, except I read that the __merge does not work anymore, so I tried to make the patch file for player.config? This is what it is. Code: [ {"op":"add","path":"/defaultBlueprints/tier1/-","value":{"item":"spawnerreceptionist"} } ] And this is the error I get : Thanks for your help
That's got nothing to with comatibility or the sorts of it. It's a simply syntax error. Validate all your Json files here.
I tried validating all of the files I made, and it gives an error where comments are. These were copied directly from the assets folder and the errors it gives are things that I did not make or change. I still cannot find the problem. This is my first attempt at modding anything in starbound
You need to remove comments - Json interpreters can't read comments. Just delete everything after // and scan it again. Alternatively you can just check the log and it'll say Which line, which character in this line and what's expected instead of the thing that's there.
