Saving the game

[AlexGCC]

Hello. Tell me how to make the save at the beginning of the level? For example, I have five levels in the game. I finish the first level. And after leaving the game, I must continue from the second level. Sorry for my English.

I have not tried it yet, but I'm guessing it will need you to know atleast basics of lua scripting!

You would have to write your settings/save data to a file. This could be any kind of file. For instance like savegame.json or .xml.

--Load the save game file
local path = "mysavegame.data" 
local stream = FileSystem:WriteFile(path) 
if (stream==nil) then Debug:Error("Failed to write save game.") end

--Write save game data
stream:WriteLine("LevelFinished:1") 
stream:Release() 

--Load the save game
stream = FileSystem:ReadFile(path) 
if (stream==nil)then Debug:Error("Failed to read file.") end

--Loop over save game lines
while (not stream:EOF()) do
	System:Print(stream:ReadLine()) 
end

stream:Release()
