I'm very much a newbie at this. Sorry. As I understand it, I unpack the PAK by changing the extension to .zip and unzipping it, which I did. But there are a great many files that unzipped. Do I have to search them all with my text editor?
I've got the following in my unzipped PAK root folder:
campaign folder
common folder
ct folder
desktop folder
graphics folder
ref folder
scripts folder
strings folder
base.xml
gameelements.xml
license.html
logo.png
I assume I can ignore the graphics folder entirely. Campaign folder has a bunch of xml and lua files.
If I have to go file by file and search I can...just want to see if there's a way to pare down the files to search.
Thanks,
Devin

many code and text editors (a simple free one is Notepad++) have a feature called find in files.
You nominate the text you want to search for - mutations and the root path you want to search (you can also tell it to only search xml and lua files) and it will find all locations for you in 1.3seconds.

The file you are looking for is "manager_gameline.lua" in the folder "scripts".

Thanks. I found it using Notepad ++ as suggested. Now if I can only figure out why, when I make the change of "Mutation" to "Miracle", rezip the .pak file, and put it back in the rulesets folder, I get an error on loading the campaign. I did prudently backup the original .pak, so I'm not in any distress. But I need to figure out what I did wrong.

You don't need to rezip up the ruleset. You can leave it in a folder in your rulesets folder and it will use that before the .pak file.

Quick question.
If I make changes to the lua scripts in the Basic Role Playing ruleset, will that be overwritten when you make updates?
If yes, does that mean I need to do these changes via extensions instead?
Regards,
Devin

If it's in it's own folder, no. But you will have to make the updates manually to your own custom BRP
