What do you want to know? Save files are simple text file - so you edit them like any other text file. There is really no magic there. You can edit them with standard windows notepad.

Magic happens in understanding how variables work and which one is what - but that is quite complicated.

If you write what do you want to change and give a save file for testing - maybe someone will help you.

The contents of your inventory will be under \"inventory\":[ (you can go over 20 sperate item stacks but you can't access anything past 20 in game).
The contents of your storage will be under \"storage\":[ (you can have as many item stacks as you want here, just remember that if you go over max and take an item out you'll need to edit your save to put it back.)

Your equipment slots are each stored under the following, \"weaponPrimary\":, \"weaponSecondary\":, \"head\":, \"neck\":, \"shoulders\":, \"armorSet\":, \"hands\":, \"waist\":, \"feet\":, \"ring1\":, \"ring2\":, \"topGarment\":, and \"bottomGarment\": you can only put one item stack in each slot, and if you're dual wielding with weapons that shouldn't be you need to use Giant's Reach in order to Attack with both.

Find \"name\":{ (replace name with the NPC's name (the player character is under pc)) and under it you'll find all the info you'll find under the Character section of the Journal.

Time is stored under \"timestamp\":. the number next to it is your time, time is stored as minutes (1440 minutes = 1 day, 60 minutes = 1 hour, you get the gist.)

Your power can be found under \"powers\":[ and you're equipped powers can be found under \"equippedPowers\":[. You can go up to 14 equipped powers, well you can go higher but you can't use the 15th and up powers because only 15 options can be on screen at a time and the back button takes up the 15th slot in the powers option in battle.
