I am trying to make a Pacman-type game, and at the end I would like to display a high-score table... The way I was planning on doing this was by writing to a file the user's score, then opening a new window and outputting the information stored in the file, which would probably be "highscores.txt" or whatever. I can't remember how I would take the user's name, score, and time to put into the file. So far, I have the very first line, I think, with variables already declared:
I'm not sure where to go after that... Someone please refresh my memory? |

Instad of opening with the intension of putting stuff, open if for [/b]get[/b] and put. Get all the data into an array, add the current user's score to the array (you should be using a flexible array), sort the array, then write the top 10 (or whatever) elements back. For flexible arrays and file I/O, there are tutorials in the Turing Tutorials section. For sorting, check the Turing source code forum for a topic by Zylum called "sorting procedures". |
