ASSS Questions - Deleting old cfg values BDwinsAlt - Thu Jul 13, 2006 10:53 am Post subject: Deleting old cfg values
I write my rank/money/exp values with the I_CONFIG interface. When I use SetInt it makes a new Int like it's supose to. But when it is used again it creates a new one. So you see something like this multiple times:
How can I make it just change the value of the first one or make it delete the first one?
Btw this does not interfere with how the modules work. It uses the final data. I just don't want the files to keep growing and growing everytime a players leaves and enters the arena.

As far as I know, there is no way to change this behavior without rewriting parts of the config module.

Can't you just search individually by char for the final value and then just change that, then write it to the file?

You can roll your own format for storing ranks. Or if you are only concerned about the rank of players currently logged in you can use the persist module.
