Some fields in save files implicitly contain string values, which represent an integer value behind the scenes (enums). In this example, 'Origin' and 'Ethics' use a specific ID or Identifier to represent a value. All identifiers use underscores where there are spaces (snake case). Saves should also load with numbers instead of IDs, although using listed identifiers is the recommended approach.<syntaxhighlight lang="yaml">
