Corrupt character! Oh no! What do I do? Is there any way to restore it? Change language. Install Steam. Store Page. Starbound Store Page. It is only visible to you.

Wow you can't do this in real life, not even in a game, it just doesn't work like this now does it? Well with the power of hex editing indeed it does. Always exit your game close completely before editing your player file, if you keep game running your file won't get updated.
Step 1 As you can see I split my stack of torches to make the game set inventory section of player file to 10 characters 2x torch. Step 2 I opened my player file to show you how my section of inventory looks in editor. Step 3 Then I changed the size of first item to 7 and its name to "coalore". Second item has to have size of 3 to keep the size of 10 as the inventory section had before editing.
It's name isnt important it just has to have 3 letters. Step 4 I profit from my spoils of hexediting. As you can see the game edited the second item called "xyz" to generic item, because "xyz" is not a valid item name. You can throw this green item away at this point it doesn't matter. Of course you can do this with diamondore or other items if you know their name. Just keep the overall length of item names same as it was before editing and don't forget to write the item name length into player file and you should be fine.
Keep in mind that when adding or removing items from your inventory, the length of player file changes. There are places in player file where this length is stored, if you make any modifications by adding or removing items, and you do not change all the relevant places storing information of file length, your player file will become corrupted.
To be honest this guide got a lot longer then I expected, but there is a lot of ground to cover. After reading this guide you should be able to change your player file and modify contents of your inventory without destroying your saves and blaming me in the proces.
