- Money (raw units; key
Inventory.Descriptor.Item.Pesos). - Checkpoint name (story progression) using the existing
Checkpoint.*keys. - Mission and objective flags from
DictionaryRaw(group filter + search). - Inventory and item counts when present in
DictionaryRaw(auto-filtered inventory keys). - Player/stat and weapon/upgrade keys when present (auto-filtered).
- Checkpoint state flags from
Dictionary(EState::Active/EState::Inactive).
- The
CharacterInventorybyte array insideSpawnedObjectDatasis preserved byte-for-byte and not edited directly yet. - Any GUID-heavy or opaque internal IDs are intentionally hidden.
- Early intro saves may only show Pesos + mission flags. Mid-game saves are needed to populate inventory, weapons, and player stats.
- Additional economy fields beyond Pesos are shown when present but not guaranteed to map to visible in-game systems.
