I'm reading through the manual and I'm wondering about the following actions listed on page 90 (pg45 in the pdf):

LOADGAME=X trigger the loading of a saved game
SAVEGAME=X trigger the saving of a current game


By reading the forums, I was under the impression that FPSC can't do any save games & load games, so what in the world are these actions being used for?
Just looking at these commands and the others there in between, in looks like there dealing with saving & loading the game process. Anyone notice or used these before or are they not working leftovers from the EA version?

I'm going to play with them now, to see what they do.....

If I use FPSC to create a FPS? What's a FPS supposed to be anyway???

Thanks, so, hopefully the place holders will be activated (or become a wife ) in v1.1!

Anymore placeholders I should know of?

I can't find it right now, but I'm sure Merranvo was talking about this just the other day. I'll keep looking. (knew I should have copy/pasted that)

In the fpsc chat? The one from Rastaman? All I'm getting is FPSChat is offline due to a few bugs in the program, it should return shortly. when I try to access that one.....

I know the Riker 9 fpsc update is planning on having load/save options, I just was wondering why these terms were in the manual.

What if someone make a script with those SAVE and LOAD commands and put the script into the trigger zone? Will that make them work?

No I've tried that and it doesn't work, that made me wonder about it.

They're place holders, meaning the commands are there, but they aren't active at all, you can't do anything witht hem at all. It's like reserving a table in a restaurant or a seat in a theater. You call before hand, they make sure no one sits in your seat or at your table until you arive.

The seats for load & save have been reserved, but they haven't arrived yet.

@Benjamin 2005:

Save/Load was a feature that was put into the manual first but TGC crew was unable to finish it before the deadline to get the product to market. I have gotten the Save/Load feature to work, but there a few changes that I will mention once I get the manual finished for Riker 9.

-This...is my boomstick!

Cellbloc, I'm already looking forward to the release of Riker 9.

Do you happen to have an updated list of what will be in Riker 9 for sure? I would love to know that.
