Evolve Save Editor

CLI tool for editing Evolve browser game save files.

Export your save in Evolve (Settings > Export), run a command, and import the modified save back.

Setup

npm install

Usage

The tool reads save data from your clipboard by default (or from stdin/argument), applies edits, and copies the result back to the clipboard.

# List all resources and their current values
node index.js --list

# Max all capped resources
node index.js --max-resources

# Set all crafted (unlimited) resources to 100,000
node index.js --set-crafted=100000

# Combine both
node index.js --max-resources --set-crafted=100000

# Max only specific resources
node index.js --max-resources --only=food,stone,iron

# Set specific crafted resources to 50,000
node index.js --set-crafted=50000 --only=plywood,brick

# Read from stdin instead of clipboard
node index.js --max-resources < save.txt

# Print result to stdout instead of copying to clipboard
node index.js --max-resources --no-copy

Options
