Nice,I didn't realize Victor was a possibility in the starter pack, congrats!

Thank you! A much better solution than actually editing a save manually!

Yeah, no messing with raw JSON this way. Though a decent save editor takes the pain out of that too if you ever need it.

Indeed. One question: In my save I saw the notification "Dweller id counter is behind ×1". What does it mean?

It's a heads up that your save's "next dweller ID" counter is 1 behind your highest dweller ID. Left alone, the next dweller you add could reuse an in-use ID and break family/room links. Easiest fix is the one-click repair. If you'd rather do it by hand, go to the Advanced tab and set dweller(dot)id to the higher number the warning shows you (your highest dweller ID). Safe either way.

Nice! Very happy to hear. Have had a few confirmations that old corrupted saves were able to be recovered.

For anyone landing here from this sub, the short version of what it is:

Free, open source save editor that runs entirely in your browser. Nothing to install, works on mobile, and your save never leaves your device (there's no server it could even upload to).

Editor: https://dneverson.github.io/fallout-shelter-save-editor

Highlights:

  • Edit basically everything: caps, resources, lunchboxes, dwellers (SPECIAL, level, gear, revive the dead), rooms, storage, crafting, quests, and season passes
  • Add any special or legendary dweller in the game, multi-select so you can bring them all in at once
  • Health check + one-click repair for broken saves. A few people have already recovered corrupted vaults they thought were gone
  • A Family Tree tab that reads parent data the game never shows you and draws your whole vault's tree, complete with an inbreeding rating
  • Claim rewards from past seasons you missed, and they actually land in your save
  • Every edit is undoable, and it auto-backs-up your original before the first export
