added item fails to spawn causing infinite loop of failures

i was trying to add blue dog tags to an npc as a drop item.  short name "bluedogtags" anytime that npc is killed i get this never ending loop and have to force close the server. i was trying to make the loot table the typical npc loot + the single extra item so i chose 5.

Issue is in progress in Discord. May be a formatting issue from BetterNpc map files provided with a map, not being up to date with NpcSpawn formatting.

Confirmed short.name issue. Option 5 tested and works fine but short name error in this case is the only thing definitely confirmed.
