## Choose Stellaris save

Edit your player empire’s existing resource stockpiles in a Stellaris 4.3.3 save.

Your save stays on your device. Downloads are separate copies.

Choose a Cetus 4.3.3 single-player .sav without Ironman. Maximum file size: 32 MiB.

## Resource stockpiles

Enter nonnegative amounts up to 1,000,000,000 with at most five decimal places. Only resource fields already present in this save are listed. Storage limits still apply in-game.

## How to use

Steam Cloud can restore another copy. Turn off Cloud while adding the edited save.

- Save and quit Stellaris, fully close the game, and back up the campaign save.
- Choose the save, edit the player empire’s resources, and download the checked copy.
- Put the download in the campaign’s save folder. Load that copy in Stellaris and check its resources before continuing.

## Compatibility

Checked against local Cetus 4.3.3 saves. Other versions, multiplayer, and Ironman are unsupported. Edited saves have not been tested in-game. Keep a backup and check the downloaded copy. Nook Tools is not affiliated with Paradox Interactive.

## Where are my saves?

The macOS directory was checked locally. Open the campaign folder and choose a .sav file. Steam may also store copies under userdata/\<account\>/281990/remote/save games in its data directory.

- Windows: The Windows save directory has not been verified here. Locate the .sav file in your campaign's save folder. Redirected Documents folders and Steam Cloud may change where your copy is stored.
- macOS: ~/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/save games
- Linux: The native Linux save directory has not been verified here. Locate the .sav file in your campaign's save folder. Proton or Wine uses a separate Windows environment; the macOS path does not apply.
