The editor itself is still a Work In Progress I believe. You can't edit the civs themselves/mod the game (beyond laying out a map) within the editor though, you have to edit the .char character file the game uses for that civ. Above is a guide Flutters did on editing .char files. There's not any other guides on it to actually walk you through what to edit to get a desired change AFAIK. @Flutters or a dev may be able to help more.
