    I've been checking other people's species mods, and I've noticed that absolutely nobody (that I looked at) has customized descriptions of objects. I get that it's probably because of the sheer amount of work, but I thought that at least SOMEBODY had done SOMETHING...

    I want to add custom species descriptions to some things, but cannot for the life of me figure out how I'm supposed to patch it. What is the path I use in order to add a species description? Simply adding "catDescription" doesn't work.

    Code:
    [
       { "op" : "add",
         "path" : "/catDescription",
         "value" : [
    "Meow. This fellow reminds me a little of Novakids..."
         ]
       }
    ]
    The patch is in the appropriate location to be applied, but the game crashes upon examining the object.
    Code:
    [07:36:00.009] [Error] Exception caught in client main-loop
    (JsonException) Cannot convert from array to string
    (This is all that it really says about the error.)

    Erm... Well, that COULD be a problem... This is what I get for copying another patch.

    Thanks for the link. I'll use it from now on~
