Greetings,
lets say i wanted to save a game with all the objects in the precise location and with all the stats for each object, how would i go about doing this?
i have a system to get halfway there already working, i can take the objects, create a dot object, load all the critical data into that dot object and then based upon its relative position from an axis point be able to then move the axis to a new location and then have those dots go and unload all their information in the new location but what i basically end up with is a couple dozen objects on a map.
what i need to do is take all the information from all those dots, reguardless (relatively speaking there will be a maximum number) of how many there are and then load all of the information into a single file which can then be read by the program at a later date to recreate the room.
ideally the point of this will be to then allow the player to upload this file to a server so they can share it with friends but im getting ahead of myself, for right now though im just curious about how you would get game maker to create a list so that you could have information for all the objects in a single location.
thank you.
