Can the game memorize variables, forever? - Neelke - 01-15-2014
I was having quite a good idea with the probably the last mod I will make, but I'm not sure if this is possible. For that to work, I need to make sure that the globals you get is something the game will memorize forever.
For example. You pick up a note and there you get a global variable. Now the game will remember that even when you shut off the game, but removeable once the player desire so. Is this possible?

If I am not mistaken, global variables are once assigned accessible at ANY time after it is declared, because it is saved. You could always script a small map with like, two notes or something to test your theory. Something like:
Code:
Player picks up note_01.
note_01 is being read -> global_var_01 = 123
if global_var_01 = 123 then
note_02 has text
else
note_02 has no text
end ifIn this pseudocode, you can create this, then for your testing purposes, just save and exit between reading the notes
