[HELP] Deployment order error

[AzureSkye]

Hey, I need some help. I'm trying to create my first mod to adjust the Avenger's deployment, but I keep getting this error:

Code: [Select]

yaml-cpp: error at line 3, column 15: illegal map value
The code I'm trying to use follows, but I get the same error if I copy and paste out of the XCOM1Ruleset.rul file.

Code: [Select]

crafts:
 - type: STR_AVENGER
    deployment:
      - [4, 9, 1, 0]
      - [5, 9, 1, 0]
      - [3, 10, 1, 0]
      - [4, 10, 1, 0]
      - [5, 10, 1, 0]
      - [6, 10, 1, 0]
      - [3, 11, 1, 0]
      - [4, 11, 1, 0]
      - [5, 11, 1, 0]
      - [6, 11, 1, 0]
      - [3, 12, 1, 0]
      - [4, 12, 1, 0]
      - [5, 12, 1, 0]
      - [6, 12, 1, 0]
      - [3, 13, 1, 0]
      - [4, 13, 1, 0]
      - [5, 13, 1, 0]
      - [6, 13, 1, 0]
      - [3, 14, 1, 0]
      - [4, 14, 1, 0]
      - [5, 14, 1, 0]
      - [6, 14, 1, 0]
      - [4, 15, 1, 0]
      - [5, 15, 1, 0]
      - [4, 16, 1, 0]
      - [5, 16, 1, 0]
Pulling out the ":" in question allows the mod to run, but doesn't change the deployment order

Additionally, the Skyranger doesn't appear to have a deployment order defined in XCOM1Ruleset.rul. Which just seems odd.

Any ideas?

always good to try https://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/
your deployment and type word are not onthe same level

Code: [Select]

crafts:
 - type: STR_AVENGER
   deployment:
      - [4, 9, 1, 0]
      - [5, 9, 1, 0]
      - [3, 10, 1, 0] works

skyranger doesn't have one because it uses default behaviour.

Oh bugger, I knew it'd be something silly. I seem to be running into all sorts of "I am not a bright man" moments these days

Edit: Okay, it parses now, but it doesn't seem to actually effect anything. Did I miss something?

Code: [Select]

crafts:
  - type: STR_AVENGER
    deployment:
      - [4, 9, 1, 0]
      - [5, 9, 1, 0]
      - [3, 10, 1, 0]
      - [4, 10, 1, 0]
      - [5, 10, 1, 0]
      - [6, 10, 1, 0]
      - [3, 11, 1, 0]
      - [4, 11, 1, 0]
      - [5, 11, 1, 0]
      - [6, 11, 1, 0]
      - [3, 12, 1, 0]
      - [4, 12, 1, 0]

      - [5, 14, 1, 0]

      - [4, 16, 1, 0]
      - [5, 16, 1, 0]

If it's not too late, I don't know why what you were trying to do didn't work. Have you tried it with or without tanks?

Well, I have something that could work for you. It's the old deployment layout. A soldier can throw a smoke grenade on the floor most of the time. But it's better using it with tank squads.
