Single Save/Load File? [SOLVED]

[CSV]

I am using "one-screen mode" and I would like to include a simple save/load function based on a single save file. I have searched the forums but I can't seem to find the right code for this.

Code: Select all

# The game starts here.
label start:
           
    scene black
    N "GAME TITLE"
    menu:
        "start":
            jump begin
            
        "load" ##### Clicking this option should load the game's single save file if it exists.
                 #####I also need to add a permanent "save" button after the game story starts.

Thank you in advance.

FileSave() and FileLoad() should do the job. Alternatively, you can use renpy.save() and renpy.load().

Code: Select all

# The game starts here.
label start:
           
    scene black
    N "GAME TITLE"
    menu:
        "start":
            jump begin
            
        "save":
            $ FileSave(1, confirm=False)()

        "load":
            $ FileLoad(1, confirm=False)()
            "Save file does not exist."
            jump start

Thank you! This worked for the load button, but I still can't figure out how to have a "save" button always present during the game.

To have "save" button always present during the game, you will have to create a screen and show it at the start.

Code: Select all

screen save_button():
    frame:
        pos (10, 10)
        textbutton "Save" action FileSave(1)

label start:
    show screen save_button

    scene black
    N "GAME TITLE"
