"Dump" is for informational purposes only.
Under the "Player Ship" tab, at the bottom, there's a "General" button.
Click that to edit the ship's name, hull, fuel, drone parts, missiles, and scrap.
Apply changes, then click "save" at the top, replace continue.sav, and play the game.

v12 Bug Warning:
The editor will crash as it writes a saved game in which a store had been visited that sector.
When that happens, the saved game will be corrupted.
This will be fixed in the next release.
Other situations are unaffected by this bug.

v13 has been released:
The aforementioned visited-a-store corruption bug is fixed.
Added SectorMap editing: Store, Quest, and Beacon (partial).
Added automated finding of data.dat on Linux-Steam, and possibly OSX.
If that fails, OSX users should be able to select FTL.app now without messing with
aliasing or config file editing.
If someone
were to edit the config file, it now stores the path to the resources folder.
Code: Select all
ftlDatsPath=E\:\\Games\\FasterThanLight\\resources
(previously ftlPath, the install dir of the game itself)

Is there no way to modify a ship's cargo, currently, or am I just missing something obvious?
Awesome work on the editor, BTW. One of the best I've seen, for this or any other game.

Oops. I'll add that in the next release.
I procrastinated, rationalizing that cargo was redundant when you can equip everything, but I forgot about stockpiling alternate items.

And your feedback made it a little better.

v14 has been released:
The general tab now includes fields for cargo, the hidden sector, and rebel flagship position.
All beacon fields are editable under the sector map tab (visited/backgrounds, ship events, etc).
The unknown field in visited beacons (previously seen in dumps) became bkg sprite rotation (e.g., planets).
Sector and flagship-related comments in the SavedGameParser class have improved.

To fix it, I need to know what the exception (error) was.
When you run the jar, there should be "ftl-profile-editor.log" file created in the same folder.
Open that in a text editor and copy/paste, or just add it as an attachment in a reply here.
(As you're composing the reply, attachment stuff iis below the preview/submit buttons.)
Also mention what version of FTL you're using.

This might be a separate problem, but I'll need the exact error message in any case.

The version of FTL I am using is the Windows v.1.03.1
When I run the editor, it seems to work but no profile can be selected (with or without a saved game).
When I click open and select my data.dat an error box appears:
Code: Select all
Error reading profile:
Initial int (assumed to be file format version) not expected value: 2181
If I simply try to edit the blank profile anyway, when I save it, the new data.dat is very small, smaller than 1kb (I was going to attach it but .dat, .txt, .log, and no extension aren't allowed, so I'm not sure which kind of attachments are allowed in this forum).
Using this new data.dat, when I run the game, when it finishes loading an error box appears and the game is closed.
The error message is as follows:
Code: Select all
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Assertion failed!
Program: C:\Arquivos de programas\FTL\FTLgame.exe
File: src/rapidxml/rapidxml.hpp
Line:1383

EDIT:
Oh lol now I feel stupid. I only realised after reading some random post that you're supposed to open the prof.sav to edit profiles, which is located in /MyDocuments/MyGames/Faster Than Light. Everything worked perfectly.
So nvm all that I said in my post. But I would recommend editing the original post in this thread to warn the location of the actual profile file, which I thought was the same thing as the data.dat.
