How should you fix the error "illegal tab when looking for indentation" ?

Probably you have used tabs instead of spaces in indentation, or the other way around.

Check the original file indentations and your editor settings.

Hard to say by looking at the string out of context.

Have you saved your rulesets using the UTF-8 encoding?

I found the problem. The game doesnt always update changes correctly.

I was trying to rearrange the alien loadouts for each ship/mission. This was alot of modified content. I had to reset my options, defaulting everything back to normal, then change back to the way it was before it would accept my new changes.
