So it looks like I missed the Fall of the Phoenix quest because I ignored the distress call way back when (I'm currently Level 10, trying to finish side quests before I head out to Gastigoth). Is there any way to still engage in it? I know there are a cheat code or two that allow you to skip straight to a particular scene of a couple other quests/missions. Anyone know if I can pick up FotP at this point?
Ignored Distress Call

Okay, so I'm using the editor and DAMN if it isn't swell. Pretty user-friendly. I've figured out how to edit most stuff (and how to restrain myself from min-maxing my PC!) but the FotP and Sera recruitment bits are lost on me. How do I edit the file so I can do both of these quests?
Thanks for any help.

Alright I looked into it a little bit the event is proc'd on:
which is set on an ignored call:
so check the flags in the save editor and see if you can find anything similar set to -1 and remove it.
EDIT: FYI do remember to keep a backup save!
Code:
flags["FALL OF THE PHOENIX STATUS"] == undefined
Code:
flags["FALL OF THE PHOENIX STATUS"] = -1EDIT: FYI do remember to keep a backup save!
Change the value from "-1" to "0"? I tried that and have been flying back and forth like a coked-up UPS man the day before Christmas. So far, no distress call. Guess I'll just have to keep flying.
What about Sera? I'm trying to reset the timestamp to just a day after the party so that I can put her in debt, but I don't know which line to edit. I think it's either "SERA_PARTY_DATE", "SERA_SALARY_DATE" or "SERA_PUNISH_FIX_DAY".
Any ideas?
Oh, and I know all about saving backup copies.

Not change it to "0". Delete it. When that flag is selected, either press the Delete key (not Backspace) or click the red X near the top. When the flag is no longer bolded, that means it is now "undefined" which is what you want
to nothing if possible, since 0 is still a defined value
SERA_REPAID_LOAN, SERA_BUSINESS_SETUP, SERA_PARTY_INVITE should be undefined for her to be possible in debt maybe more though, Sera has way too much flags to quickly check

I'd guess set SERA_PARTY_DATE = current game timestamp - 24*60, SERA_SALARY_DATE to undefined, SERA_PARTY_INVITE = 2 to get the state you want. If you want to guarantee that she'll always be in debt so that you can purchase her, set SERA_PARTY_INVITE = 3 and SERA_INFLUENCE to be no more than 90: also check to see that SERA_RECRUITED, SERA_ACQUIRED_DATE, SERA_BUSINESS_SETUP and SERA_REPAID_LOAN are all undefined, as any of those can interfere with the availability of her purchase.
DISCLAIMER: all of this is my best guess after reading the relevant parts of the source code. While I'm confident they'll work, I can't guarantee that.
