Hello, I’m trying to make a simple save system, that saves a checkpoint at the start of each chapter, which can then be loaded from the Stats screen. I’ve run into the following issue when trying to load: *redirect_scene is supposed to work like *goto_scene, but from the Stats Screen (copypasted …

Ah, I understand. I agree that this happens on Dashingdon and in ChoiceScript IDE, but I fixed that bug two years ago, in 2020, in the official version of ChoiceScript on Github. It doesn’t reproduce when I use run-server.bat locally. I’m a bit surprised that Dashingdon and ChoiceScript IDE are th…

[image] Loudbeat: What occurs to me but I have no idea if it’ll give you the same problem, is to use *goto_scene from the stats page, and on a separate scene you put the choice to restart from the checkpoint. But I don’t have much hope it works that way either. Try and let me know. Hmm, i don…

Had that issue recently as well. Talked about it in this thread I think you need to tell where to go. For example, when I start the save system I use this: *gosub_scene savesys save 1 "chapter12" "variables" This line (and the softsave program) names the position where the save is from. Thhe chap…

Yes, I’m probably wrong, I was just guessing based on the output you showed. I think you have the answer already.

Unfortunately, I already tried adding labels in the *redirect_scene and *goto_scene. It still reverts to the old in-game “position” whenever I go to the Stats Screen. Or do you mean something else by naming the chapter/scene? I did try using @cup_half_empty ’s save system but I couldn’t manage to m…

Ok I think i figured out a logic that can work, Create a new scene which just contains this [image] Sofia_D: *choice #Load last checkpoint. [i]This will restart the current chapter. Continue?[/i] *choice #Yes. *redirect_s…

Yeah, I can load from the stat screen using that system, my biggest issue is that quicktest has an error towards the end, still looking how to resolve that.

[image] Sofia_D: I did try using @cup_half_empty ’s save system but I couldn’t manage to make it work. If you’re having trouble setting it up you can shoot me a message :grin: or ask in the thread itself, might help other people with the same questions. Btw, the issue with quicktest should be…

Hi, I managed to make your save system work (it wasn’t that complicated in the end), but I’m running into the same exact issue as described above. If you load from the Stats Screen, returning to that screen will return you to the original position in-game. I give up :smiling_face_with_tear:

How are you running the game? It could be something with your version of ChoiceScript exactly. On my end it works fine.

Maybe. I run it either through ChoiceScript IDE (version 1.3.1), or on DashingDon’s hosting site. Not sure which version of ChoiceScript they are running. Edit: At least I’m not the only one running into this issue with *redirect_scene: [image] Chapter skipping system Game Develo…

That’s exactly what Softly does. It generates all the boilerplate for you.
