I am trying to update one of my older works I haven't touched in years with newer mons, and it's late, and I am at my wits end on what to do about it.

This is the error I am getting.


Code: 
Exception: RuntimeError
Message: Field  is not a positive integer
File PBS/pokemon.txt, section 651, key Compatibility
5

Compiler:219:in `csvPosInt!'
Compiler:2319:in `pbCompilePokemonData'
Compiler:2298:in `each'
Compiler:2298:in `pbCompilePokemonData'
Compiler:2296:in `loop'
Compiler:2376:in `pbCompilePokemonData'
Compiler:2280:in `each'
Compiler:2280:in `pbCompilePokemonData'
Compiler:2279:in `each'
Compiler:2279:in `pbCompilePokemonData'


The section in question is:

The error message already tells you where the issue is - you have defined the Compatibility incorrectly. Compatibility is not supposed to be a number, but is instead defined by an egg group, such as "Monster", "Bug1", "Field", etc. I'm looking at my own PBS file and I see that the line for Quilladin should actually look like this this:

Compatibility = Field

Honestly, if you remember exactly what changes to which species you've made in the past, I would suggest just downloading the pokemon.txt file from a clean copy of Essentials v18.1 and making your changes on that. If you've made too many changes, though, then you'll have to manually update each entry to the correct format. You can find how each section should be defined here: https://essentialsdocs.fandom.com/wiki/Defining_a_species.
