I'm having trouble making a saving system

[KingSuspicious6711]

I spent an hour or two on a guide telling me how to make a saving System and loading system but it never worked, so now I’m seeing if there are any other ways to save.

What is the link to the guide?

it was this

I used both the saving and loading one

What are you trying to save?

The guide only saves the properties Cash and Character Equipped. It won’t save anything like player coordinates, inventory, or really anything besides those properties. It’s possible to add more properties to be encoded, and I could help you with that if you need it.

I’m sorry to hear you spent so long on it only for it not to work… did you delete what you made?

[KingSuspicious6711]

I haven’t yet, but I was meaning for it to save cash and cash only

Hmm…
What exactly is going wrong with the system? Is it not returning the right values, is your input or output straight up not working?

[KingSuspicious6711]

sorry for the late reply, I redid the whole thing but its still not working

It’s all good!
What exactly isn’t working about it? Does the output that give you the code not work, or does the part that sets the properties not work?

When I grab cash from a spawner I made, I end the game and boot it back up to see if the load button gives it back but it does nothing

also, someone told me that some of the lines were, | which is a symbol top right or ur enter button

I see.

The save code doesn’t actually carry over from game to game, what it does is show you a string that you can input again in another game which sets the properties to the correct values.

First, you should test the decoding system during the same game you use the encoding system to see if it works normally.

Then, try setting the Save Code property to the output of the encoding system from a previous game, and seeing if it returns the money from that.

Then, if that works, you can make an in-game keyboard so you can type in previous save codes. The keyboard should update the Save Code property.

Unfortunately, making keyboard is a lot of work, and I really hate to ask you to do more after spending so much time on this mechanism to no avail. Here’s the guide for it (Made by the same person!):

Memory Efficient Trigger Keyboard (Only takes 1% memory)

HI, I’m noticing that ALOT of people recreate text entry in gimkit using triggers with block code, now that’s cool and all but most of these use a trigger with block code (which is 540 memory) for every single letter! that’s around 25% memory! we can reduce the amount of memory this takes up SIGNIFICANTLY! How would we do this? we recreate a t9 keyboard where one key can be used for 3 letters. combine this with Counter Arrays, and well my dear gimkitter we have ourselves a fine memory efficient …

You might also have to add symbols, capital letters, and numbers to the keyboard, since the save encoding system uses every character.
