Hello Again,
I was wondering if someone could tell me if you can access bank files from a differnt game. For exsample if i made a rpg, then made an arena game for the rpg which loads your saved hero FROM the original game.

Thanks in Advance

Banks are filed under the account ID of the map publisher when stored locally. This means that a bank made by a map of a publisher can be accessed by all the maps from the same publisher but not from different publishers.

Jim publishes map A which produces banks 1 and 2
Jim publishes map B which produces bank 3
Fred publishes map C which produces bank 4
Maps A and B have access to banks 1, 2 and 3.
Map C has access to only bank 4

That said, nothing stops a person from manually copying accross bank files between publishers.
