How am I suppose to keep Kelly Chambers alive? #66

I tried & tried EVERYTHING to keep her alive. I tried to keep everyone alive really from MELE1 to 3, and when I fudge up the dialog and thought nothing of it and I do visit her to see if there was anything new but no so I just went on through my journey boy when the Cititdel and visited everyone and heard that Kelly Chambers was shot at, so I fix that mess but came to ANOTHER wall where she died by taking cyanide pills. Can someone on here who probably knows WAY MORE, and smarter than I, and please help me?

I honestly found a problem in the TSE. image This image above me should be considered the OPPOSITE of what it should say. If you press it, it will tell the player that Kelly Chambers has passed away due to committing suicide. Why? Well, it would mean you choose the renegade route instead of the other choice. So there! I found the flaw in the TSE.

The proper way to save Kelly is to tell her to change her identity first time you see her on the Citadel.

However, during one of your next visits to Citadel you need to go and speak with her again. If you don't speak with her again then she will be listed as killed by Cerberus during the Citadel attack. Basically, if you don't check if she actually changed her identity the game treats it as if she didn't change it and got found and killed.

All that has nothing to do with the save editor though, and the plot variable names were defined by Bioware, not by the author of this editor anyway.
