Adding the JSON file to your Clan

Steps for adding exported cats to your Clan save:

1. Once you've finished customising your cat, navigate to the export tab click on "export json".

2. Your cat's json will be saved to the savedcats folder with the name [prefix][suffix][ID]json.json

3. Open up this json file (with notepad, for example) and copy the text.

4. In your CLANGEN folder, navigate to your current clan's folder and open clan_cats.json

5. Paste in the text you copied at the end of the file (+ Make sure formatting is OK).

6. In your clan's JSON file, add in your customised cat's ID to the list of cats.

7. Run your game.
