How to Edit Your Save Files:
----------------------------
Written by OnlyMarlow

This is a quick guide on how to edit your save data.

-=Where do you find your save?=-
To begin with I feel like the Devs should find a way to keep players from 
doing this or add a check to see if the file has been edited, because it 
is a very easy way to unlock all the achievements.

* Continue at your own risk to your save file.
* Go to file explorer and follow this path
  C:\Users\[Your User]\AppData\LocalLow\MisterMorrisGames\Rusty’s Retirement

* In there you will find some files.
* You are looking for one that says something similar to "H3-2024-5-4-16-56-40.txt" 
  (This is mine your’s will look different)
* MAKE A "BACKUP" BEFORE YOU CHANGE ANYTHING IN THE FILE!
* Open it with notepad or Notepad++ (either will work fine)
* Simply Ctrl + f to look for what you wish to edit.

* In this example I want to give myself more fossils, so I change the value 
  from 0 to 9999
* This is what it looks like to begin with

  “fossils” : {
  “__type” : “int”,
  “value” : 0
  }

* This is what it looks like after editing

  “fossils” : {
  “__type” : “int”,
  “value” : 9999
  }

* You can also unlock anything by changing it value from false to true.
* In this example I am unlocking a carrot
* This is what it looks like to begin with
  “cropCarrotUnlocked” : {
  “__type” : “bool”,
  “value” : false
  },

* This is what it looks like after editing
  “cropCarrotUnlocked” : {
  “__type” : “bool”,
  “value” : true
  },



Changing Save File Names:
-------------------------
* First up close the game. 
* Having the game open while doing this will lead to a lot of issues.
* Go to following file:
  %USERPROFILE%/AppData/LocalLow/MisterMorrisGames/Rusty’s Retirement/
* Before continuing I recommend backuping the folder, as an eror can corrupt 
  all saved games.
* Find the save file you want to modify
* They follow the pattern H0 (H1, V1…) – TIME/DATE INFO.txt (or .txt.bat)
* Example: "H0-2024-4-29-16-23-15.txt"
* Main save file (txt) for a world 1 game (H0) that was created on the 
  29.04.2024 at 16:23:15.
* Now you can change the file:
  From: H0-2024-4-29-16-23-15 (.txt and .txt.bat)
  To: H0-First_World-2024-4-29-16-23-15 (.txt and .txt.bat)
* Now you may need to clean up some duplicate:
* This process can also lead to duplicating the game save. This is a result 
  of the game recognizing save files only based on file name (so changing name 
  is like generating a new game with the same gameplay progress).
* This means you will find a save game “First_World-2024-4-29-16-23-15” and
  “2024-4-29-16-23-15” in game. You can delete the one with the old name. 
  Do this ingame via the implemented delete function.
