Hi
I'm trying to get to read the users system in love2d

love.filesystem.write

This is the users system structure:

users = {{name = 'User'}}

I tried to load it with

love.filesystem.load

But I didn't get success

You probably want

require

function instead, as in:

local users=require 'users'

to include your helpers and modules.

`save` and `write` are used for saving game states usually.

See docs for love.filesystem.load. It loads the code, but doesn’t run it. So you have to do something like:

local chunk = love.filesystem.load(data_path)
users = chunk()

Or even better, wrap it in pcall or xpcall, so it wouldn’t crash in case of invalid config.
