Default FYI for modders

I recently re-did a modification of the Stellar Manipulation tech area that I posted a while back. What I did was remove all of the components from Stellar Manipulation and give them there own areas.

I ran into a problem, however. It appears that all the components in the COMPONENTS.TXT must stay in the same position, they cannot, like I did, be move to say, the end of the file. I ran into a problem where "WEAPONS" would not show up in "COMP TYPE" pull down when I was creating a ship. I re-did the mod, leaving all the components is their original positions and modifying them there. Everything works now.

If this is the case please let me know.
