Modding a Save
After you have SEToolBox downloaded and installed launch the program, top left click “File” and then “Open” and pick a save file from the list that pops up.
Here is where you pick what you want to edit, we will only go over resources and armor blocks in this tutorial.
Once you have picked an asteroid or one of its moons its composition will pop up on the right hand side along with some other options
.
When changing composition of asteroids there are 2 options, make the entire asteroid gold, or just the inside of the asteroid. In order to make the asteroid have a “shell” around it you need to change the whole asteroid to a resource first, and then change the outside, roughly it will come out 30% shell 70% resources.
Same basic idea behind changing armor blocks of an object to heavy or light armor.
