However no matter what I change, It keeps wanting to export the script as Starfire. Even though I have all the addressing set with Firelinx. I don’t know what I need to change to make sure it saves as a Firelinx script.
When I try to export the script it shows.

When a position is configured to use a specific firing system, that overrides the selection in the Address Show dialog. When using the same firing system/module type for an entire show (as I think is the case with this show), there’s no need to specify the firing system or module type on a per-position basis. To fix your show, select all positions, right click on any selected position, select Edit position properties, and set the Firing System and Module Or Slat Type settings to the <Use Default> option. Once you’ve set your positions to use the default firing system, simply readdress your show and you should be all set.

Excel simply isn’t recognizing the tabs as delimiters and erroneously displaying all the data in a single column. If you open the script file in Notepad, you’ll see the tab characters represented as white space between each column/field.
