Save game editor
For viewing and editing Space Engineers save games, you generally have two main choices.

Open your save game content with a text editor, and learn how to understand XML.

Or, use the Space Engineers Toolbox.
Official site for SEToolbox[github.com]

The SEToolbox for short, was released independently of Keen SoftwareHouse soon after Space Engineers was released for Early Access, and has been maintained for most of that time.

To download the latest version.

All documentation on how to use SEToolbox is maintained on the same site.

For those who need to use it but can't because it's outdated, I might have a workaround.

Use the beta or prerelease version you need through Steam so that it matches up with the version that SEToolbox is looking for. Create your world and modify it there. When you switch back to the newest SE, it should convert the world file to the latest version and run normally.

I haven't had the time to test this yet, your results may vary.

I didn't use this often but when I needed it it was there.

Especially loved the bigger worlds.
I have an ongoing game that has just 1 planet. a 5x original size earth. I am doing the north to south pole drive on it. No idea how to make these changes without SE Toolbox. Hope it get fixed.

Even if not though thanks for this tool. It was fun whilst it lasted.

So Sad that SEToolBox dont work anymore, I miss using it helped resetting my DS worlds and fixing ships so many times I lost count...
Granted dropping back to 1.93 still works bu that dont help worlds created in current version.
