| text=Please note that Microsoft Office tools and Windows tools in general (like Windows Notepad) alter the csv files invisibly by adding hidden characters. We also don't recommend Open Office Calc for csv editing, as this tool adds unwanted characters, like the apostrophe to some fields. '''This can render the files unusable and even corrupt your entire game.''' For editing csv files, we recommend a text based editor, e.g. the libre [http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ Notepad++], which keeps the required format across Windows and Linux.}}
