Saving Script

Once you studied Lua a bit you will figure it out. I did and I can create the thing you're requesting easily.
However, I go by the chinese proverb "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."
I hope you get the point I'm making.
To give you some advice.
1. Learn to store values into variables or even tables.
2. Learn to use/display the variables and tables in in-game hudtexts.
3. Experiment around with the hooks and try to be creative.
4. Gain some more experience in Lua scripting by reading tutorials either on YouTube or on the Lua official website.
Check these scripts out:
File does not exist (14215) File does not exist (12888)OR, you could search the forum and find many more level scripts that you could use. It's that easy
If you wanted to do something on the computer, why didn't you try to make your own OS. Wouldn't that be great? Yet neither of us did because people like to use the work of others.
However, if you want to have something amazing only for YOURSELF, you'll have to follow
KimKat's advice and learn Lua yourself. I highly doubt you'll need that as there's many great scripts out there.Good luck!
,its more fun to learn it and then do it myself Thx guys for answering.EDIT: Ok so i have created an load/save script.
Yeah it loads and saves but,
when i delete my server(dedicated server) then start a new one it doesn't load the file,the gold,level,exp just goes back to 0 wtf? heres my code.

end
end
it saves/loads files when i close the server and make/start a new one it doesn't load the files. You can use a variable to check if someone has spawned for the first time and set it to 1 so it doesn't trigger load again.
Yates: Ok i'll have to try that EDIT: I've been getting these errors, somethingl like attempt to concatenate '?' (a nil value) and i also get attempt to concatenate global 'usgn' (a nil value)
though i don't know what those errors mean
,help please. edited 1×, last 05.02.15 07:24:44 am
Maybe it is because you take "usgn" as variable name because it is already reserved.
1
local file = io.open("sys/lua/MoneyLevel Sys/Save/"..usgn..".txt","w")
The correct one:
1
local file = io.open("sys/lua/MoneyLevel Sys/Save/"..usgn[id]..".txt","w")
You coded "usgn" instead of "usgn[id]" !!
Edit:
Completely fixed script:

Its fully guaranteed script!
It will never give any error!
Even if i use "Join" and "Leave" hook!
It wont

Ajmin: Yea it loads and saves but it only loads when i:1. Join server(dedicated server)
2. Get a few kills to lvl up
3. leave
4. rejoin
5. the files get loaded
however if i do:
1 Join server
2. Get a few kills to lvl up
3. leave and close down server
4. create server again
5. doesn't load files if i do that way.
but at least im not getting any error messages in the console
Shutting down server is not leave (Leave == Save)!
Hence,It wont save!
U must use "second" save or "minute" save for that!
Or simply save players lvl etc when it gets increased. (Best Way)
Else u could also add a cmd for save function!
When u need to shutdown your server type the cmd and then shutdown it.
Ajmin: ok i'll try the second or minute save 1
