ENDLESS™ Space is a turn-based 4X strategy game, covering the space colonization age in the ENDLESS™ Universe. You control every aspect of your civilization as you strive for galactic dominion.
The easiest way to get whatever research you want by editing the save file is to first queue up all the research you want done, and then in the save file, go to the ministry of science agency in your empire, and find the queue\overproduction field. That's the amount of reserach points that will be applied to the queue next turn. Change that to a big number. Then reload the game, start your next turn, and receive all the new techs you queued up.
As far as trainers, Cheathappens.com makes a trainer, but you have to be a paid member to use it. It's really easy to edit the savegame, though, so a trainer isn't too necessary.
Install and run and go through the following menus -
Plugins > Plugin Manager > Show Plugin Manager
Scroll down to near the bottom of the Plugin Manager, find XML Tools, tick it and click Install.
Notepad++ will ask to restart, do it.
Then open the save file you want to edit and go through the following menus -
Plugins > XML Tools > Pretty Print (XML only - with line breaks).
It will reformat the one line into a more readable XML format.
You don't have to reformat back to one line, once you've made changes, save and move it back to the bin file. Just tested this and it works fine.
If you want Notepad++ to format the XML properly into nodes, add the .xml extension to the file and reopen it. Remove the extension before you move it back to the bin file.

Aye, I'm having the same problem. Don't know why but something seems to have changed since release as when I started a new game and went to try and edit the starting system so it loosely resembled Sol all I got was the same jumbled up paragraph.
I managed to open the file up and it's just one jumbled run on paragraph with no order what so ever. Is this the same for you guys? I can't discern any sort of order or ownership of any of the lines.
I am trying to edit my Hero's namely, but can't figure out which one belongs to me. Any help?

Yeah, that one. Could it possibly just be slow to sync with Steam? I fiddled around elsewhere for a bit, and when I checked again just to make sure I wasn't going crazy, autosaves were there. Still not my Sheredyn - Turn 1 save, though.
Sorry to necro this thread, but this seemed the best place to ask...I've been trying to mod my save game, but it isn't showing up in the save folder. In game, I have a number of saves with various factions, various turns. When I go into Documents, though, the folder is empty.
What do you mean by finding your tech tree? You mean which Empire it's under?
You are Empire index Zero
pRoot/Game/Empires/Empire[@index='0']/Agencies/Agency(DepartmentOfScience)/Unlocked/Technologies Is where you would add the techonology codes you want to add. (remember to update the Count property if removing or adding a tech)
pRoot/Game/Empires/Empire[@index='0']/Simulation/Descriptors where you will add any needed descriptors that go along with certain techs. how do you know which get added? you compare files and experiment a bit, others are more logically named)
if you could nad21 can you post a text version of that for download i think alot of the incoming mod community might find valuable
admiral i agree but oddly enough i changed an arid world to Terran huge and it worked in game changed the population and bonuses automatically. i think maybe the checks are based on the world itself due to transforming in game maybe but ill let someone more experienced in these things figure it all out
as for editing cheats happen already has a trainer out for alpha believe it or not mostly because i asked for it which makes the research a lot easier to get due to the auto reset in game
You can easily edit their base stats (Defense/Offense/Melee/Wit/Labor), as well as their experience, ability points and so on.
The stats can go at least up to 65535 (haven't tested farther), and as you can imagine, it's only slightly game breaking GO GO FULLY RESEARCHED BY TURN 10!
Looking at the planets, colonies and what not, I'd imagine that changing a planet type or adding/removing a star lane would be possible, but there appears to be internal checksums.
Example: Want to change a small arid to a huge terran? Not only do you have to change the entry in the solar system area, but there are total planet counts in PlanetTypes and PlanetTypesAndSizes, and probably a few more places.
