Default Re: Save game editor
It is and was - in the original SP1 I recall there was one, which could be used exactly for that - cheating. The original saved games (even PBEM) were "clear" apart from the passwords block.

We now have encrypted files for secure PBEM, and any info on how to edit these would involve info on how to break the encryption scheme, so removing any security we had in PBEM.

(And I cannot see any valid reason to be tweaking saved unencrypted games either)

Cheers
Andy
