Why is my char editor doin dis :I

[Growlith1223]

Im making a character editor, got it to load everything but a certain String

it loads everything fine but when it comes to that line, it acts like it was unable to read anything in the binary for that data.

The string it should be showing is "Newb" but it puts nothing into the textbox. when i save though, it literally creates a new line for the title. even though there already is data for the title. i have tried everything, i be stumped by this :I

[PD]

Code?

edit: i should also mention that if the new line is created, it has no effect on loading the player in the server. it still loads the original title, the char editor can't load it for some reason. the recs are the same, everything

We can't help you if you don't even put that line -_-

sry i probably should have updated the topic, i fixed it. not technically fix but i just put the char editor inside the server's form. it now loads the stuff fine

Ow ok good to hear that :D

to read and write strings you need to declare their length like this

```
Dim Name As String * 30

```
thats why eo declares all its strings like that

```
Public Type TypeName
Name as String * NAME_LENGTH 'where NAME_LENGTH is a constant'
End Type

```

if you dont specify the length of the string the program wont know how many bytes to read/write
