Autosave ?

[Juutis]

Hi,

I was just wondering if there's a way to autosave the game. I really wouldn't like my game to be one of those "Oh, so I died and my last save was three levels ago... " -games.

And if I want my pawns to save their states in level changes and save/load games do I have to use player attributes for all of them? Is there a way around this?

Aaaand...

SaveAttributes(char *FileName );

Saves the current player attributes to an ascii file of a specified name.

What does this mean, exactly? Yes... I know it saves the player attributes, but can it be used on something useful?

It writes an attributes.txt in my root Realityfactory directory, automatically I guess, don't remember asking for it.

Yeah... but can that be used later in the game somehow or is it just a sort of debug thingie? Is there any way to read attributes from a .txt file?
