[Spoiler] FTL Profile/SavedGame Editor v27 (2018-01-12)

[Vhati]

No worries, I started on the saving today anyhow.

It's much quicker to code loops to write lists of N numbers than it is to carefully collect and organize them in the first place.


Edit: Saving's done. Now to re-enable some of the editing tabs and add new fields...

The anticipation is killing me. That really shows how good your program is. I can see it now: 2 chain vulcans and 3 autoreloader

In v22, ship editing may not be possible, which includes weapons, augments, and scrap/fuel/missiles/etc.
HOWEVER....

Cargo is stored separately from the player ship, so with v22 you WILL be able to add Chain Vulcans there, then install them in-game.

I understand the weapons and augments but why not scrap/fuel/missiles? I mean I don't know how you would be able to change them from the editor but I know they are quite easy to manipulate. Using a program called Poke I can find those values with 2-4 scans. If I used something more advanced like the Cheat Engine I imagine I should be able to find the line(s) of code.

Yes, the values themselves ARE trivially simple. It's just that they're part of a ship, and the ship editing tab edits LOTS of things at once. Here's a screenshot of where those are located.

Augments are trivial too, actually. Just a string picked from a list.


These hold-ups come to mind...

• Weapons and drones have tons of extra info now (can't add/replace a weapon if I don't know default values that go with it).
  I can specifically disable editing those.
• Crew can exist without bodies while they're mostly dead.
  Shouldn't be too hard to add a place for them.
• Several mutually exclusive systems may be possible per room (clonebay/medbay).
  The always-visible floor icons will need reworking (they represent the potential systems for a room and their status).
• Systems can have battery power.
  I can disable the system editing button to avoid power sliders.
• Systems have extra info for their special features: shields, clonebay, mind, hacking, cloak, artillery, etc.
  That never existed before, but I think I know defaults to use for those when the editor installs a system (by raising its power capacity above 0).

How long do you think it would take to get full ship editing functionality?
