your indentation is all wrong

make sure your text editor uses a fixed width font, i suggest notepad++ as it supports yaml format natively.

compare this version:

Try this: https://falkooxc2.pythonanywhere.com/rulcheck

Click where it says Open rulfile, then copy/paste your ruleset there (delete first what's already in the validator). Save and close, then test your ruleset. It will tell you precisely where the syntax issues are located.

i've re-fixed and re-uploaded my original attachment, there were some more indentation errors and a missing "extraSprites:", as well as missing strings.

yes, if notepad++ is showing you red lines, that means there's something wrong
