I was trying to update the Network to 1.07a. First I had a problem where it would not let me overwrite Huaramarca at all. It said it was an invalid UNID. Then after I found a temporary solution the game wouldn't let me use the image for Huari Habitats. It just says "Invalid Image" then the UNID of the image. These problems are the same in 1.07.

This is a tricky situation that I need to think more about. My goals on this are described better here: http://neurohack.com/transcendence/foru ... f=5&t=4435

The basic idea is that I want to separate out the story-specific parts of Transcendence and put them in separate modules. The recommended way for you to do what you want is to:

1. Make a copy of Huari.xml.
2. Load Huari.xml as a module in your adventure.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure if that is going to work in 1.07. Could you try the above and see if it works? If not, I can make the required fixed in 1.08 (I've got a bug for it now: http://wiki.neurohack.com/transcendence/trac/ticket/721).

It would probably fix things to make Huarmica part of the normal topology.

Drako found some way to do what he wanted and george has a 1.09 fix planned that encompasses this in a non-direct way, so I think this can be closed now.
