Windows (Question) Can you save to another game's ini file.

[Colorics]

Title says it all, can you open up an ini file of another game you've made and alter it through the second game? If so, can you give me the code to do that. Would appreciate if you could change this game code to do that.

if (file_exists("Save2.sav")) file_delete("Save2.sav");
ini_open("Save2.sav");

The Save2.sav is in:
C:\Users\Anonymous\AppData\Roaming\Project

Due to sandboxing rules, each game/application only has access to it's own directory, determined by the project name. So you would either:

• Rename the second project file so that it shares the directory.
• If this is for single-time save game import, use get_open_filename to let the user pick the file (which bypasses the sandboxing mechanism).
• If you only aim for desktop platforms, use an extension to copy the file around or edit it at the other directory directly (free, paid)
