Character Updates

[tickleu]

Okay, so lets say I have a game and it has 20 players, and I all of a sudden decide "Hey I want to add a new stat for my players". I figured out how to add new stats like willpower, strength ect. But when I add the new stat in, I have to wipe all accounts, and start over. Is there anyway I can add the new stat data into the accounts without wipeing them. Is there an existing program that can do this already, or do I have to add it to each character file individualy. Can I click a button and it will write the stat data to all account files???? Help please!!!

Write a converter. One end of the converter would load the existing files (old PlayerRec). All values in old PlayerRec are then transferred to new PlayerRec. Then, the files are resaved with new PlayerRec.

Well, there's an [existing one here](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,70502.msg809345.html#msg809345), but it's for Alatar's Quest System. The source is included though so you could modify it to suit your needs.
