    Creating SWD / SWADE (individual) modules

    I finished an Adventure Card deck for World of the Dead (based on SWD) and I started to make a custom one for SWADE (because of some different subdecks - may choose to eliminate subdeck definitions in the MOD file and just use one - but for now assuming will use 2)

    I found something odd, when I opened the SWD ruleset up, I saw BOTH the SWD and SWADE versions of my MODs.
    When I opened the SWADE ruleset up, I saw ONLY the SWADE version of my MODs - as I'd expect and prefer.

    I've been away from this a long time due to life events (Covid, shepherding son through at-home-school last year, new job, house-hunting, new house, etc) and I was never near being an expert - so I assume I just did it incorrectly, but I am not seeing it atm:

    SWD:
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
    <root>
    	<name>Adventure Cards of the Dead</name>
    	<displayname>Adventure Cards of the Dead</displayname>
    	<author>FG Conversion: Dan Delgado (Varsuuk)\rIllustrations and design by T. Jordan &amp; Wendy Pea****. Graphic elements by David Jarvis. Playtesting by John Boulton, Chris Stadler, Scott Venable, and John Zielinsky</author>
    	<ruleset>SWD</ruleset>
    </root>

    SWADE:
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
    <root>
    	<name>Adventure Cards of the Dead - SWADE</name>
    	<displayname>Adventure Cards of the Dead (SWADE)</displayname>
    	<author>FG Conversion: Dan Delgado (Varsuuk)\rIllustrations and design by T. Jordan &amp; Wendy Pea****. Graphic elements by David Jarvis. Playtesting by John Boulton, Chris Stadler, Scott Venable, and John Zielinsky</author>
    	<ruleset>SavageWorlds</ruleset>
    </root>
    I tried adding a <replaces> for the heck of it in SWD (which is counter-intuitive for me) to replace the SWADE one as a "hail Mary" shot. Didn't work either.

    OK - found the answer:

    <ruleset>SWADE</ruleset>

    That's the one that limits it to SWADE.
    Sorry, I missed the SWADE Adventure Deck in my MODs dir since it was so cluttered and I forgot it was prefaced with SWADE vs suffixed I changed my naming to preface it as well now.



    I got confused, so SavageWorlds and SWD are exact synonyms? Or are there distinctions. Any advice how to use them? Should I always use both going forward for SWD-compatible MODs?
    (or... now that think on it ... "SavageWorlds" for "base class - ie: useable by either"? and "SWD" for SWD-specific?)
