Solved Failed to load monster.xml

[arthuraio]

hello guys,

As the title says, I'm having an "easy to fix" problem with a monster.

The error is: "start-end mismatch" but I have looked the entire file twice and coudn't find the problem, since I made it from scratch, I probably sliped somewhere that I can't see right now. Can you help me?

Here, take a look at the .xml file.

PS: the monster IS registered in monsters.xml, it's 100% sure that the problem is in the xml below.

That site is crazy, it's telling that I have to close with "</monster>" the defenses part.... There is something seriously wrong, because I really can't find something wrong with my xml.

I just posted it
You had to remove 2 /

It shows this.

So you know the defence part is wrong (already closed with /).
