Saving Feature Alert!

Posted 13th Jun 08, by -Dark Martin-

I will keep you posted.

Ok i've made another change to it, instead of the save files being completed erased upon selecting a new game, if the introduction reaches the end THEN it will be erased, this is to prevent someone speeding though the start to get to the menu and accidently selecting New game.

Remember, the game you can end the game at any time by simple pressing ALT + F4 simultaneosly.

Thanks.

You have to use the set current file function of the ini object for this.

Create 3 buttons (save file 1,2 and 3) and when the player clicks 1 set current file to appdrive$+appdir$+"savefile1.sav"(for example), when he clicks 2 appdrive$+appdir$+"savefile2.sav" and so on. Now you also have to change a global value so the other frames know to which file the data has to be saved.
So in the frame that has to save you do : If global value A = 1, set current file appdrive$+appdir$+"savefile1.sav".
If global value A = 2, set current file appdrive$+appdir$+"savefile2.sav", and so on.

I hope you understand now, or don't you use ini's?

Use a global value and do save array to Appath$ + "saves\save" + str$(Global Value A) + ".sav"

Where Global Value A is the save slot or something like that.
