Code:
        Deletechar()
            if(!src.inprocess)

                            del("Save/[src.ckey][src.saveslot]")
                            src.inprocess = 0

You're deleting a string, not a file.

Another small problem when I tried to fix it.
Still doesn't work with my fix method.

        Deletechar()
            if(!src.inprocess)
                switch(input("Which save slot would you like to delete?","Delete",null) in list("Slot 1","Slot 2","Slot 3","Cancel"))
                    if("Slot 1")
                        src.saveslot = 1
                        if(fexists("Save/[src.ckey][src.saveslot]"))
                            var/savefile/F = new("Save/[src.ckey][src.saveslot]")
                            del(F)
                            src.inprocess = 0
                        else
                            src << "There is no save file in this slot."
                            src.inprocess = 0
