save...
when I open up te document it is a bunch of weird characters, I know that is the ways GE needs them so it can read them. but when I try to acces the saved text with the game I made it does nothing here is the draw actor event for one of the text actors

Code: Select all

if (Set == 1)
{
 Name = text;
 saveVars("Name", "MyNameAndPassword");
}

If Name and text are strings, use the strcpy function to copy the values:

Code: Select all

strcpy(Name, text);
