Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work?

I made this a year ago, in the development version at the time (v1.7.7 I believe?) and shortly after I sort of dropped the game. I was making this more or less just to pass the time, and, well, to see if I could. It was fun to make, and I want to revisit it.
It's just I've been away from this stuff for so long, I have no idea what to look for any more.
I know I'm probably going to get snobby "do it yourself" answers, and that's fine. But if anyone could just be a kind soul and help me out with this one thing and tell me what I need to do and not just tell me to look it up on google that would make my day.

What doesn't work, in particular, is everything. None of the units seem to be appearing...

For starters, use "{~add-ons/" instead of "{@add-ons/". @ isn't supported anymore.

When did it change? Was it in 1.7 or 1.8?zookeeper wrote:For starters, use "{~add-ons/" instead of "{@add-ons/". @ isn't supported anymore.
That seems to have made it work very well. I remember what I used this for. I was trying to make my own abilities. I encourage other people to try it out, as well, and check out some of the abilities I made like "Ripped Pocket" and "Possess."

1.7, which is the development branch that gave birth to the stable branch currently known as 1.8. (More details about the version system here if you are interested.)
