mod map crashes to desktop in loading screen

When I load the mod map that I have been working on in instant action it crashes to the desktop the moment when it finishes loading. It hasn't always done this and in fact, it's done this before and somehow (amazingly) I managed to fix it (stupid Hoth shield generator). But now...it's been driving me mad for the past 3 hours.

If you have any clue of the source of this problem, please answer.

You could have errors in your lua files or missing textures/skins/objects/sounds.

Post your lua.

You need to give more info to get specific help.

What kind of stuff have you changed since it last worked?

I don't think the LUA is the problem but maybe I'm wrong. Here is the cmn file:

hm...
"tur_bldg_spa_imp_guided_rocket",
"all_bldg_frigateturret"
)

Shouldn't it be

"tur_bldg_spa_imp_guided_rocket",
"all_bldg_frigateturret")

? And does the mungelog tell anything about your lua? If there is something wrong it will tell you.
