These are some super awesome array functions! Makes formatting windows, environment etc a breeze. If you haven't already, check 'em out. Search for Json on the web page

Love the JSON stuff. Worked well for me managing co-ord arrays produced from external tools. Just save off the files and hoover them into my game

you can convert type stuctures to and from json as well, doesn't have to be an array. I've really been enjoying this feature.

@BlinkOk You can create a single index array from your type and use .save and .load on that. e.g:


Would still be great if we could save any variable or user defined type (not just arrays) using .save and .load though.
