The Editor

If i create a person in the editor, will i have to start a new game for the person to be included?

If yes, is there anyway to add a person into a current game that has already started?

if yes, then obviously no?

Question 1: Yes.

Question 2: You can use real-time editor (FMRTE). Searching the forums will give you more information. I'm not sure if you can create new players, but you can modify players' details. Not sure if that is good enough for what you need though

Can you create people and add them in the save game editor?

I'm trying to add Shearer

As JimBob says, you can create him in the pre-game editor.

If you want to add him to an existing game you need FMRTE. The details are in the FMRTE thread in the Editors' Forum. One way to do it is take any existing player (eg rubbish regen) and Clone him. Then you can alter all the details - age etc to be what you imagine Alan Shearer to be. You can change his name providing other staff already have the same first and surnames - in his case there's a Scott Shearer in the database so you can copy the name too.

great, ty!
