I've been trying to make a high score code that enables others to see their past score each time they try to play. Right now I just have this:

` Load
gosub LoadHighScore

` Save
gosub SaveHighScore




LoadHighScore:
if file exist("Hiscore.dat")
open to read 1, "Hiscore.dat"
read long 1, HighScore
close file 1
endif
return

SaveHighScore:
if file exist("Hiscore.dat") then delete file "Hiscore.dat"
open to write 1, "Hiscore.dat"
write long 1, HighScore
close file 1
return

Also, I have tried setting my background image as a bitmap. The background image shows up but then gets rid of the actual platforms that are needed to reach the objects. My code is down below, you may just have to delete the image codes since you do not have the files. Thank you.

you have to read the file into an array then sort this array. then re-write everything on the file again.

Are you trying to read just one past score or a list of the past scores?

So what's the problem?

Since you only want to save/load a single score then your code seems perfectly OK.
