Problem Adding Faction

[Caledonian Rhyfelwyr]

I've added seven factions succesfully, but having went to do the last two i get this error:

19:35:26.716 [script.err] [error] Script Error in mods/barebones/data/export_descr_unit.txt, at line 730, column 18
Invalid ownership type 'slave' found in unit 'pirate ship'.
19:35:26.716 [data.invalid] [error] DATABASE_TABLE error found : error reading record from file mods/barebones/data/export_descr_unit.txt.

Editing the pirate ships doesn't change anything, so I'm a bit stumped as to what to do.

Any idea what could be causing this odd error message?

Have you reached the limit for factions?

[Octavius]

Didn't you forget the saxons and the normans ? There are 24 vanilla factions.

24 + 7 = 31, the limit.

Gah! I forgot them. I feel so stupid.

Does it make a difference that i am using the Barebones folder?

[Ataegina]

this means you've more than 31 entries (factions), so that message its related to descr_sm_faction.txt, so this ill ignores the last faction(entry), on this case is the slave one.... so all the entries related to slaves in another files ill be unknow like EDU,EBU and ends on CTD....

The game ignores entries in the descr_sm_factions after the limit is reached.
If a unit is linked to a faction like that you will get this error.
A work around would be to change the ownership. This does not mean that you can recruit the unit now with the faction that you have newly assigned ownership. For that you would have to enable the recruitment in the EDB.
Only effect: you can use this unit in custom battles with that faction.
