INI Problem

[Redsquirrel]

Hi All,

In my game i basically have a "total" score of collectables. I want this to carry on throughout the game, maybe unlocking a extra level etc when it equals 500 etc.

I have basically got this working to some extent. at the end of the level it will place the total amount of collectables into the INI file.

However, i am having issues getting it to add to whats already in the ini file. I thought i had figured this out, but it gives me a really long strange number everytime.

Maybe I am not setting the ini correct?

I basically have a counter adding up the collectables. At the end of the level it transfers to ini via this event.

set value value ("counter") to item "TOTAL COLLECTABLES" in group "STATS"

I thought I could use an add command in the expression editor but having issues.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Ignore this. I realised the easiest (and best) way of doing this was to read in the total collectables to the counter on each level. That way it continues on, without needing to be added up etc. Seems to be all good now =)

Global values and strings retain their data over frames if that is any help to you.
