When you get the ship editor cut and paste bit in a ship BP TM:

Ship=6,Caravel,75,60,0,0,25006
ShipItem=1,100
ShipItem=1,103
ShipItem=16,131
ShipItem=8,150
ShipItem=40,180
ShipItem=1,175
ShipItem=29,160

There are no ; (semi-colons) at the ends of the lines.

Yeah i'm not happy with this in any case - i want to parse the ship techmanuals to create a ship, but when i get to that io don't know.

I noticed that some do and some don't. I'm guessing it depends on what's in the original research SA.
