### Legal & Ethical Use
- ✅ Edit your own personal save files
- ✅ Use for single-player enjoyment
- ✅ Create backups and experiments
- ❌ Don't distribute modified saves with premium content
- ❌ Respect Bethesda's Terms of Service
- ❌ Don't use for competitive advantages in online features

### File Compatibility

---

## 🛠️ Troubleshooting

### My file won't load
- **Check the file format**: Make sure it's a Fallout Shelter save file
- **Try both formats**: If `.sav` doesn't work, try exporting as `.json` first
- **Check file size**: Corrupted saves may be 0 bytes or unusually small

### Changes aren't saving
- Click the **"💾 Download Save"** button (browser can't modify files directly)
- Choose format: `.sav` for in-game use, `.json` for further editing
- Replace your original save file with the downloaded one

### Game doesn't recognize my edited save
- Make sure you saved as `.sav` format (encrypted)
- Keep the original filename
- Place it in the correct save folder
- Restart the game completely

### Validation warnings appear
- Read the warnings carefully
- Minor warnings are usually safe to ignore
- Critical errors may corrupt your save – fix before downloading

## 💡 Tips & Tricks

1. **Start Small**: Make one or two changes first to ensure everything works
2. **Use Statistics**: Check vault stats before and after changes to verify updates
3. **Track Changes**: Use the Change History button to see what you modified
4. **Test Downloads**: Download as `.json` first to review changes, then as `.sav` for the game
5. **Keep Backups**: The editor auto-creates one backup, but keep your own copies too
6. **Search Feature**: Use the search box (🔍) to find specific data quickly
