Hi, I'm a newbie. I need to add a save and load section to my batch RPG. At certain
points in the game the player will get the option to save his progress before quitting.
Then at a later date Load the save back up and continue where he left off.

I have looked at a few "Lets make a batch RPG tutorials on you tube" but when I copy them into my game they don't work.

Any help greatly appreciated

Sure would like to know where you got that code from.

Regardless of that, what do you want the SAVE file to look like.

The way it is shown in the post is not as i set it, I found it on You tube and the person doing the tutorial showed that it worked for him. It should be like this:
Then to show it worked he done this, first change the opening variables by any number then add the load program: he ran the first prog, then to demonstrate the save bit then altered the variable, added the load part and ran it, on screen it looked like


Your HP is 30- your Dexterity is 10 and you have 500 gold coins
press any key to continue
Then after the changes it reads
Your HP is 45- your dexterity is 20 and you have 50 gold coins
pause

It worked for him but not me. All I want is that the player at certain times gets the option to save his progress, exit and return another day Load and continue where he left off

2nd code Steffen

Here's how I would load in your circumstance:

< filename.ext (
set /p var1 <--- Puts line 1 into a variable
set /p var2 <--- Puts line 2 into a variable, etc.
etc..
)

You're going to want to put = signs after both of the variable names

Wow, I completely blanked over that... I must have been way too tired to think

Your answer is no different then Steffen's answer.

Oh I just realized that the > thingy was the other way around....
