You can edit your save to fix some common issues or change your choices (see [http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/save-file-editing-guide-for-solving-some-common-issues.110762/ walkthrough]), but make sure to back up your save first. Be careful using save-editor tools, since they can break your save.

You can edit your save to fix some common issues or change your choices. '''This can permanently break your save; don't forget to create a backup first.''' You should also avoid save editor tools, since they often break the save.

# Install [https://www.sublimetext.com/ Sublime Text] for Linux, Mac, or Windows. (If you already have another text editor which supports XML formatting, feel free to use that instead.)
 +
# Install the [https://packagecontrol.io/installation Package Control extension for Sublime Text].
 +
# Use the Package Control extension to install the Indent XML plugin ([https://packagecontrol.io/docs/usage see documentation]).
 +
# Open [[#Find your save files|your save file]] (the file that looks like <tt>Name_0123456789</tt>) in Sublime Text.
 +
# Click Selection > Format > Indent XML.
