How can I make a save file for my house system so people dont have to rebuy a house everytime I restart the server? (I know im an idiot.)

actually I have a change in this, I need it to save everything (possibly regularly). Im using Deadron's Char Handling, any help please?

You'll need to make a seprate (custom) save file then. Deadron.CharacterHandling only supports saving characters.

How can I edit it to make it so it saves all things on a map? or whatever.

Well, what are you asking for is pretty much a map saver right? This has been discussed in the forums a lot, so a search on map saver or map saving would yield a good number of responses, but basically what you are aiming for is to loops through all the objects, turfs, areas, and mobs in the world, and then throwing them all into a savefile. It's a quite simple concept, but making it work without crashing the world is hard. I believe Gazoot had a dmpmaker on the hub somewhere that did this.

Pretty much, it's hard to make something like this, because of the unspeakable demand of resources, and if you do get it to work without crashing your world, please share with us your findings.

Best of luck ..~Cheuq

Do you mean look at it for posts that have to deal with it, or demos and libraries that have to deal with it?

Uh... why don't you just do both? =) I recommend a forum search over a hub search, though.

I noticed MJ has something like this, if it isnt, thats the kind of thing I want, because of the system im planing to do, I need it to save basically the map file every time the server goes down, or possibly every like 30 min. Anything helpful besides looking up the fourms for an answer please help, im looking it up now, so anything new would be helpful.
