It just saves the player you are using(PlayerNum), so do this:
ONLY SERVER SIDE

modDatabase:
Sub SavePlayer:
Replace:



with:


and replace:


with:



This will make the server saves only the char you had played, and on the account creation, it will save only the account information(3 or 4 lines) xD
Simple and usefull.

Any side affects to this?

Without it, it will save all your characters although you are only online with one.

I can still delete my characters too. I THINK there may have been an issue with it, but I added this so long ago, I'm not really sure.

I thought there was a problem with deleting characters anyway...

_________________

When you delete a char, it clears the char, setting everythingk.. blank.

Then it calls save player.
So that it saves the blank data over the old data.


But with this, I was unable to do that, because it checks if the char is being used.
And in a menu, it's not being used.

So it says that you have no currently playing chars, and skips the whole save.
Me and SMChronos had the error.

Fix?

I use this:


Just the way I do it, =P. May not be the best.
