[Trigger] Easiest Working Save/Load Trigger?

[Sarowin]

First Post! YAY
I got frustrated with all the complex and hard to use save systems, so I made a very easy save/load system using Game Caches in GUI. It is very simple and I was wondering if experts could determine if there would be any leaks in a Multi-instance game like a RPG. It's obviously not set up to be implemented yet (It doesn't remove your old guy) but I think it will work. Just 2 Triggers I tested it in-game and it worked great.

• Save
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -Save as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -Save as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -Save as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game Cache - Create a game cache from (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, (Length of (Entered chat string))))
    • Game Cache - Store Paladin 0000 <gen> as Hero of (Name of (Triggering player)) in (Last created game cache)
    • Game Cache - Save (Last created game cache)

• Load
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -Load as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -Load as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -Load as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game Cache - Create a game cache from (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, (Length of (Entered chat string))))
    • Game Cache - Restore Hero of (Name of (Triggering player)) from (Last created game cache) for (Triggering player) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing 0.00

 

[Heyer]

im sorry to disappoint you but game-cache only work in single player. So its mostly for campaigns

Ehh... Worth a try. It works really well though, it lets you make a password, and then use the password to load it. It's saved to the player's name also. Ex. "-save ghoul" Leave the game, and then start a new one "-load ghoul" Then creates an exact copy. Thanks

Everything has been said.
Game caches from a multiplayer game are useless after it has ended.
Also be careful when using game caches.
There is a limit of 256 different game caches per machine per profile.
And as single player game caches are not deleted using them wrongly may cause problems.

It is not like people WANT them to be hard and complex (they aren't hard and complex by the way). Think next time before posting :/
