(Topic Title) Is it possible? I'm trying to use the GV 1000 Global Values Plugin to save information about the inventory/things accomplished/area the character is in etc. using, obviously, numerical values for global values. Would this be possible to do using a single INI, or would it require multiple INIs or possibly an array. Is this only possible, say, with an Array object, or possibly MMF? Help please. Otherwise, I have to resort to a complicated password "grid" similar to that found in early Megaman games.

Sounds perfectly feasible, have you tried? In one action you can just have:
Set current INI item to "health"
Set item value to Global value 1
Set current INI item to "position"
Set item value to Global value 2
And so on...
Then to load the values you just reverse the actions (setting the Global value to the INI value). Does that make sense?

Ah. Thanks. As the my rating suggests, I am a n00b, so I lack ini skills. It seems so simple now... I guess it was just some thinking that my tiny little brain couldn't handle on it's own. Thanks again.

Lol, don't worry - I had been clicking for a year and a half before I even touched *INI* files.

Haven't Touched! Every1 Ini's are easy, and there are plenty of articles. I thought they looked hard to, then one day i tested it out. Played with the object a little, looked at some examples and they are really easy.
Check my article somewhere. (click my profile)
