I just moved the 1.62 folder into my App folder and clicked 'replace.' Now I don't have a save file anymore. Can someone help me create a save file that approximates my progress?

what progress? I mean where/how much cr; how much kills, what kind of ship?

Okay, so launch the game, save the commander, then quit Oolite, open the savefile with a texteditor, and change these things to your heart's content.... (I take one of my savefiles as example)

money:

Code: Select all

<key>credits</key>
	<integer>30692</integer>
</dict>

that's 3069.2 cr, mind the fact that Oolite counts in fractions of ten...

Location:

Code: Select all

<key>galaxy_coordinates</key>
	<string>150 62</string>
	<key>galaxy_number</key>
	<integer>2</integer>

I'm in galaxy 3 (internally it counts from 0....) planet location 150 62, you can look those up if you press "!" in Oolite when looking at the big maps, it then creates a list with these numbers...

Equipment:

Code: Select all

<key>has_docking_computer</key>
	<true/>
	<key>has_ecm</key>
	<true/>.....

true: I have it, false, I don't...

Code: Select all

<key>legal_status</key>
	<integer>0</integer>

zero = good boy...

what kind of ship:

Code: Select all

	<key>ship_desc</key>
	<string>supercobra-player</string>

number of kills:

Code: Select all

<key>ship_kills</key>
	<integer>1078</integer>

I think those are the most important? there's the missions accomplished etc too, but I don't know if you're already into those...

see, that's so much more helpful Rxke

*sigh* it's been a long day...

I thought it was maybe a good idea to let JIMBO try to tweak a savefile himself, and find out how nice it is to be able to do those things, heehee....

BTW JIMBO, if this is still too much like Chinese for you, just ask for someone to make you a savefile, no problem.
