Is this a simul. game?

Did you add additional entries? If so, place them at the end of the file, that way it will not interfere with present ship designs etc.

I'm not sure why changing the existing values to smaller amounts didn't work, it should. I could see if you increased the size, it might cause some designs to be over the limit and some problems but smaller...?

What do you mean by "break" the savegame?
Could you not load it? Were the components of your designs mixed up?

Hmm, that might explain the failure the second time, I added the entry right after regular organic armor.

Failed to load, SEIV told me I'm using the wrong data files.

Edit: Adding to the end didn't work either

I thought armor regeneration and emissive ability didn't work for units...

They don't work on units. Armor regen can't work because comps on units are never destroyed, the unit is either fully functional or fully dead.
