Serious error after INI edits, Unable to start game after changing INI, reverting changes not working Options

[Firestar]

While I have enjoyed the mod immensely, it always bothered me that you could only pick one ECA protocol. Sure it makes sense for multiplayer, but I want to mess around against the AI without having parts of the faction limited.

I figure that it wouldn't be too hard to edit the INI to remove the build limit on research centers, letting me take one protocol upgrade for each. After downloading FinalBig, I changed the maxsimultaneousoftype to 3 for research centers, and 1000 for Frank Jaeger while I had the program open. After that, ROTR would not launch and give a serious error.

I figured I must have done something wrong so I undid the changes, but the serious error issue remains. I could reinstall, but I would like for my edits to go through and at the very least would like ROTR to work again. Does anyone have any information as to why this could happen and how to fix it?

If its any help, the debug log file ends with


ASSERTION FAILURE: Weapon AirF_AuroraBombDetonationWeapon not found!

I was able to fix the game after a re install of the game and mod. I tried to edit the files again and got it to work without issue. It was harder than I thought to get the protocols working the way I want but I was able to add extra build options to upgraded research centers and got it to work.
Thank you to everyone for helping me with the issue.
