Improved save
Authors: gerrtunk
Version: 1
Type: A all-in-one save system
Key Term: Title / Save / Load / GameOver Add-on




Introduction

This script has been created with the idea to give the maxium freedom and
possibilities to the creator. I think this system open many new ways, but i may
take some work for you.

Anyway the script comes with a working default configuration for each feature and
also have the option to make autoconfigurations. Turning on/off a feature only
needs to changue one option.



Features

Main systems:

-Autosave system with temporizer or/and map script calls. The autosave warns you
activating a switch everytime is autosaved. Use a reserved slot for this system
that can be protected.

-Quicksave system. This lets the player to save everywhere, with the condition that
the quick savegame will be erased. Use a reserved slot for this system, that can be
protected. It have a must load option that protect agains cheaters.

-One slots modes. They make all the save and load process automatically. Also exist
a Quicksaving one slot mode that works like roguelikes ones.

-Complete event save control system. You can now save, load, erase, check if
savegame exist, keep savegame information in event variables, quick save
and autosave with simple script calls. It also have a function to call the load
game menu.

-Very complex and complete graphic personalitzation. Now savegames can show:
 steps
 map description(based on maps id)
 map name
 gameplay time
 date
 description(a text thats saved with the game. Ex: "Chapter I")
 money
 completed game(based on event variable)
 
 actors names
 actors levels
 actors graphics
 actors faces

things in two lines, but with the advanced you can select also every option position.

Author's Notes

All my scripts are in development. I will listend to feedback, bugs, etc,

You know, it would be cool if you could apply the Template for Script Submission to your script topics so they can be moved to RMXP Script Database and automatically indexed in the Script Database Index. :)

I updated the script so it can enter in the databse.

*puts screenshot into spoiler* Alright, I'll move it now. You should update your other scripts topics as well. I think that I noticed quite a few topics where you didn't use the template.
