Idea for Save script

I haven't had a need to make a hero save/load script for any maps that i have made. However, I have an idea for a script that i may take a stab at constructing and just release it for everyone to use.


My Script Idea:


TO ADDRESS: Code not being universal for all players

- To make a script so that more then one person can not use the script i would:

* Take the first, and third letter of the players name and use it in the "save Code" as like the 5th, and 8th character.

Note: This would make sure that the save codes could not be used by more then oone person, unless you read this and knew how it worked.



TO ADDRESS SAVING ITEMS/HERO LEVEL

- Well, I haven't started coding this yet but i'll try to give an example.

- First Note that we will only be saving in the script: Hero Type, 6 items in inventory, and Hero level.

- To save the information we want i would do something like this.

Say that our save code looks like this (X = number or letter)

XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

In order to save information i would make for example
the 5th "X", and the 13th "X" when combined give you a 2 digit (number/letter combination) and the save/load script will read this as "The item type of the item carried by the hero in the 6th inventory slot"


I hope this gives some people ideas for making a save/load script. Feel free to use this method to create one.


I have just decided to make this sript as I type this. I will make the script universal by assigning each item/hero an integer to the "Custom Value" field to work will all the default items, and heros, and try to include information on how to set a custom item and hero to be able to use it for the script.

The above is the start of the save/lod code i started last night, it was going to work for all the default heros and items.

I could have easily pulled this off, but then i saw a post about a save code. And i saw that there is a save code script on here call "EZ Save load code 2" that from looking at the code looks like it ould work, but requires customization for ther persons map that uses it.

So, with that said unless a pile of people ask me to finish this. I dont see a problem with people using that save load code, and i see no reason to finish this.

I will keep the map that i have this started in just in case though.
