Code: #define id skill1 var ids_given = 1; ent_create(blabla); action enemy() { my.id = ids_given; ids_given += 1; [...] //enemy death killed_e[my.id] = 1; } and after level_load, when you readout the file.. just ask with a loop and ent_next for the entities *.id, if it´s the same as the i from the for loop.

I got many errors!Can I use this code in A7?
This is for read out but what should type for ent_remove(?)?

Code:

function level_choose(level_var)
{
[...]
if(level_var==7){	
        level_load(bighome_level);
	var fhandle = file_open_read("bighome_level.txt");
	var i;
	for(i=0; i<50; i++)
	  {
		killed_e[i] = file_var_read(fhandle);
		if(killed_e[i] == 1)
	   	 {
	    	ent_remove("what should i add here?!");
	    	 }
	   }
	file_close(fhandle);
        return;}
}

and here I save it to a file,But I use this function for all of my enemies.

Code:

function AI_die() 
{

	proc_kill(1);
	/////////save kardan enemyhaye morde dar file
	killed_e[my._ENEMY_ID] = 1;
	var fhandle=file_open_write("bighome_level.txt");
	var i;
	for(i=0; i<50; i++)
	{
		file_var_write(fhandle, killed_e[i]);
	}
	file_close(fhandle);
	[...]

also i dont create the enemies during levels.

The saving code needs to be set before loading a new level.. not after killing something. after level_load, you need to set a wait of 2 frames. for ent_remove, you need to make a loop, including ent_next to scan all entities of the level, and ask for their id. try replacing your ent_remove with this: Code: for(you = ent_next(NULL); you; you = ent_next(you)) if(killed_e[you._ENEMY_ID] == 1) // scan for ids and for the stat { ent_remove(you); } } Be careful.. the array (killed_e) needs to be big enough to store ALL Level Entities. When there are 3000 Enemies on your greatest map.. the killed_e needs to be var killed_e[3001]; //global to be sure theres enough space for the ids.
