:warning: Warning :warning:

This tool will change, delete and move data in your save file around, which can corrupt it. This can lead to unwanted behaviors of the game or break the save completly, which will affec all other careers as well. Those errors could appear later on and may be invisible directly after usage.

:warning: Since I do not play in multiplayer I have no clue if editing the database will cause any errors with the servers you play on. I would guess that this is not the case but I'm not able to confirm it just yet.
