Savegame file Reference
« on: February 17, 2015, 10:08:02 am »
I was wondering is there a Reference for the savegame files somewhere?
I so far have seen most of the values in the normal Ruleset Reference but some really give me no explanation whatsoever.
Especially those regarding Battlescape Missions, as it seems even the Maplayout get's stored in the Savefile.
I would be interested in those particular.

Any advise help would be really nice.

in your c:/user/ ?? /documents/openxcom/saves . you can edit them manually as openxcome saves are in fact text files and you can cheat as much as you like

the maps are stored as a series of tiles, in binary. if you compile it yourself there's an "#if (0)" you can change to a 1 to enable human-readable output.
