Can I use a save editor to go back to just before I ended the Relics expedition?
I screwed up. Before ending the expedition, I didn't first go to my main save and copy back my ship and MT that I transferred in, so I lost all the upgrades and slots I opened up on both.

Can I use a save editor to go back to the restore point when I hopped out of my ship in the Anomaly, just before I ended the expedition, so I can do it the right way?

The game keeps two saves. The manual save triggered by existing your ship or tagging a save point. The second is an Auto save that happen once every few minutes. The game will open the news by default.

After opening your game go to the save menu. You will see two saves. Choose the older one. That might be before you ended the expedition.

Unless you did a manual backup that is your only option. The save editor can't edit data that no longer exist.

You could use an editor to add the slots and upgrades you lost to your current ship and MT...as best as you can remember them, anyway.
Bummer. Thanks. It says no data for restore point. This was my first expedition. Live and learn. On the bright side, at least I know my S-class sentinel MT has an L supercharged layout. lol

you can't go back on a save but You can regain what you lost with the editor.... and more if you like
Get the same ship you had and make/build it as it was with it

PS: you can also save your ships ALL of the ships you ever had any time in the game and reload them when ever you like like get a ship build it the way you like and save. Then you can reload that ship in any save

The editor is not as bad as peoples say it is it's a tool that fixes a lot of things

unlike other games using save editors... NMS save editors dont effect other player's enjoyment (unless your going to the anomaly and shunting items from the SE into thier inventories)
i myself use the save editors to raise the slots avalable in the vaults, or to get items from past expiditions you can nolonger get. its not a bad thing. not to mention it helped me recover a save when the cloud system decided to reactivate itseld and overwrite my 6 year old save file with one that was just a few months old... and last played on weeks after cloud saves were added....

Same here I have a file with over 2000 hours on it, there's no way I'm going to rely on "the game" to keep this going
