Other than the fact that you save every frame(!) due to a bug in love.update
*, it seems to load the money thing just fine. Can you be more specific about the problem you're having and how to reproduce it (basically what steps I need to take to see the problem in action)?
*This:
Code: Select all
if savetimer > (lastsave + 60) then
--do fuck all
else
save()
lastsave = savetimer
end
should be:
Code: Select all
if savetimer > (lastsave + 60) then
save()
lastsave = savetimer
end

You mean you change
tempsavedata? Because that is ignored if save.txt already exists.

You deleted the line
which means it never saves.
Your construction with SaveData/tempsavedata is really weird, but it should work fine otherwise.
