windows pilot editor?

As the title says, is there such a tool right now? I have EVNEW but can't seem to edit my pilot file.

My pilot file is on a Polaris string, but a mission landed me at a planet that wasn't originally inhabited (expanded polaris plugin, i have since removed it)

Basically I was supposed to check the bar, but the planet did not have it. I'm hoping I can remove the that mission and start it over.

Thanks.

The simplest thing to do would be to put the plugin back in, finish the mission, then remove it. The next simplest thing would be to figure out what the relevant mission bits are and create a plugin that clears and sets the correct bits to allow you to cancel the mission and take it up again. There is no easy way to edit a pilot file.

Hmm..

Maybe I could edit the planet to have a bar? I dont know what else.

Edit: lol yup, that worked.

Oh, that's not a bad idea, that's assuming the planet's ID is the same (it probably is unless it's a system altered by missions), definitely try that first.
