It is likely that you've opened Superluminal while you've had some mods installed. This causes the editor to unpack and use the modded files, and by extension allows you to place modded content on your ship.

However, doing so also causes your ship to have a dependency on the mod whose content it uses. Which means, you'll have to install both your ship, and the mod on which it depends.

So should I just re-install superluminal and then remake the ship?

With GMM, press the patch button without selecting any mods - this will revert the archives back to their default state. Then in superluminal go to File > Change Archives, to unpack them again.

This one was answered in the FAQ. It's because your Mac uses an older version of Java - the editor requires 1.7 at least; for info on how to fix this, look here.

The ship editor won't run when I open it. I have checked my java type and I have a 64-bit so I downloaded the correct version and It won't run. I get this in the debug log whenever I try to run it

Huh, apparently you've downloaded the 32-bit version. Try the 64-bit one

Weird I downloaded the 64-bit which I thought I had downloaded before and I got the same thing. Is there something that I'm doing to mess it up or something?

I tried both versions and they both gave me the same debug log script. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

You haven't stated what OS you use.
The only other reason for this error to show up, other than wrong architecture distribution, is wrong platform. Which would mean that you certainly are not using Windows.
So, you're running either Mac or Linux-based OS. Either way, you have to download the platform-appropriate distribution.
