Save Slots?

Hi guys! I was trying to figure out how to use the recently added Save Game State thing, and then put the saves in slots that the player can Load. The only problem I have, is how do I save the Saves to the slots? And ideas? Thanks.

Use WebStorage to create "Slot1" and load save files from JSON to "Slot1"

Do you have a sample for InvaderX?

This is difficult for beginners understand HOW make things =]

How would I do this if I had a text box that allowed Player's to name their save slot?

InvaderX Use expression to get Text.box to store value.

Joannesalfa Let's say I wanted to delete my save file. How would I do that? Also, how do I distinguish the slots that have saves from the ones that dont? That way if I press the button "New Game" the ones with saves on them are set invisible.

EDIT: Also, for some reason, webstorage isn't saving the SaveStateJSON?

I know it's not saving because it activates the second one.

1- Ask Ashley, he never replied about delete save file yet.

2- WebStorage is not SaveStateJSON

Joannesalfa

1. Okay

2. I mean like, whatever Webstorage was supposed to save, it isn't saving.

If is not saving, you probably made it wrong

Joannesalfa This is what I have:<img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/61808535/Slots2.png" border="0" />

Did I do it wrong?

I can't help, but do indexedDB storage (used for the save-states) isn't Really Huge?, and so used instead of WebStorage because of that? (so, I'm not sure to store it entierly in the webstorage is a good thing to do).

EDIT: Also, I'm guessing you already save to a Save Slot by doing the system Save action, so, It is just nonsense, again, I can be wrong

EDIT2: you can load, not from JSON, but just load, and enter the name of the slot you selected before, don't use webstorage actions At all.
