If some things are wrong it might also be because of me changing everything around to try to get it working

I was expecting it to work, or error on loot being nil, since the creepers do not typically have any loot. Instead it looked like it worked but nothing dropped...was just wondering why I get no error and no loot using the local variable, and yet it works if i modify it directly.

 creeperloot=data.raw.unit.creeper.loot

creeperloot = {
...
}
