Save and Load Code
TriggerHappy187
Version 1.5

Documentation

Version 1.5 is pretty much a complete optimization of my old save and load system (1.4).
Throughout this page I will tell you the advantages of my system over the others, as well as the features.

Features

  • Extremely easy to use
  • The entire frontend is in GUI, no jass knowledge needed.
  • The code is optimized heavily which leads to short codes.
  • The entire code is almost random, without using any unneeded spaces.
  • Highly optimizable

Security
  • Player name saves :p
  • The entire code is seemingly random, new codes are generated every save.

Compression

The system finds the best possible solution, while keeping your code random, but also short.

I have also created a function which combines the bookmarks of each character, into two characters.

Now, each value that needs saving needs at least 1 bookmark, say you save..

6 Items
1 Hero
1 Hero level

Thats 8 values, which gets compressed into 2. The system just saved 6 characters.

Version 1.6?


In version 1.6 I will try to take all of your suggestions, and implement them :p

Heres a current list of what i'm hoping to implement.

  • Even better compression
  • More security checks without changing length
  • Code scrambling (almost done)

I hope this works well because im going to be using it for my map :) also could you post ways to make it more then just player 1. (I know how to change it but some people may get confused.)

If they get confused because they don't know how to c/p events to fit the amount of players in their map,

they shouldn't be messing with save and load systems.

Upload the map here.
And, was there something wrong with your previous thread, that you couldn't update it?

I didn't think that old one was really old either. Actually, this is the third (if not fourth) thread you've made for this system.

If i'm not mistaken it's in the graveyard.

And this script is an entire re-write.

> If i'm not mistaken it's in the graveyard.
Is that a problem?
You can still edit things in there, there's nothing retarded about the graveyard. :)

Anyway, I repeat, upload the map here.

Hi, I noticed when I loaded that the skills are reset. Is this suppose to happen?

Tried Allowing Holy Light to be saved but no luck

Also noticed when you load you are placed in a region and not where you saved. any chance this could be changed?

However, 10/10 this really is amazing. The codes are really short (Y)

You save what you want to save, i'm not going to make it save everything.

It takes five clicks to input your own save values.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    whatever at least you are free

    If you are new to the site please check out the Recipe and Food Forum https://www.thehelper.net/forums/recipes-and-food.220/
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
