[General] This save&load feature

[stan0033]

Hey, some people in gameRanger ask me if there is save&load feature in the map im testing. Shouldn't there be such by default not only in single player. What do they mean and how do I create one?

Usually people refer to this system: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/codegen-1-0-2-a-177395/?prev=search%3DCodeGen%26d%3Dlist%26r%3D20

It allows the creation of save and load in the best way known, as far as I know.

If a map should have one save and load system fully depends on the map itself and its genre.

Thanks. If it's so simple why don't someone give me the line that commands saving and loading TXT file and I can do the rest by myself.

BTW My map is RPG, it should store 1 hero, his level, his gold, his lumber, his bonus, to remember killed unts and unlocked doors. and etc;d

Hm, CodeGen is a save&load in general, for multi player.

To use 'default save and load' in multi player, one would have to enable local files which is quite dangerous.

If you have problems with CodeGen, then maybe check out these for an easier approach and the theory:

Note, CodeGen can create and save a file in your hardware so players can simply copy pasting it
