Hi.

I have an array multidimensional to store the progress and when the player quits the game, I need to save all that progress into a text file. How do I save all these informations into a text file? To read it I'm using LoadString with no problem..

Hi,

I'm doing it this way:

Saving Data...

...

Local file:=FileStream.Open("filename.dat","w")
MAP.StoreData(file)
file.Close()

#rem
   within MAP-Object
#end 
Method StoreData:Void(_file:FileStream)
	_file.WriteInt Version.Length()
	_file.WriteString Version
		
	'Map Name
	_file.WriteInt Name.Length()
	_file.WriteString Name
		
	'Map Size
	_file.WriteInt MapX
	_file.WriteInt MapY
		
	For Local x:Int = 0 until MapX
		For Local y:Int = 0 until MapY
			_file.WriteInt arr_Region[x][y]  
		Next
	Next
		
	For Local x:Int = 0 until MapX
		For Local y:Int = 0 until MapY
			_file.WriteInt arr_PlayerID[x][y]  
		Next
	Next
End Method

Loading Data:

Local file:=FileStream.Open("filename.dat","r")
MAP.LoadGameMap(file)
file.Close()


Method LoadData:Void(_file:FileStream)
	Local ilngth:Int = _file.ReadInt()
	Version = _file.ReadString(ilngth)
	
	ilngth = _file.ReadInt()
	Name = _file.ReadString(ilngth)
		
	MapX = _file.ReadInt()
	MapY = _file.ReadInt()

	For Local x:Int = 0 Until MapX
		For Local y:Int = 0 until MapY
			arr_Region[x][y] = _file.ReadInt()
		Next
	Next
		
	For Local x:Int = 0 Until MapX
		For Local y:Int = 0 Until MapY
			arr_PlayerID[x][y] = _file.ReadInt()
		Next
	Next
End Method

Just ask, if something is not clear to you.

bye Duke

Thank you, Duke87. Solved! I thought brl.filestream wouldn't run on Android. :-)
