[SOLVED] Even FileAcces..WRITE file equals to nil???

MurdexStudio

I have this:


extends Node

const SAVE_PATH = "user://Save/GameSave.save"

var SaveData = [
	Global.Money
]

func SaveGame():
	var File = FileAccess.open( SAVE_PATH, FileAccess.WRITE )
	if File != null:
		File.store_var( SaveData )
		File.close()
	print( SaveData, " | ", File )

func LoadGame():
	if FileAccess.file_exists( SAVE_PATH ):
		var File = FileAccess.open( SAVE_PATH, FileAccess.READ )
		SaveData = File.get_var( SaveData )
		File.close()
	print( SaveData )

And LoadGame() runs perfectly ( As it seems atleast ) with no errors. But SaveGame()'s File is nil... Even tho it uses the same path... Why?

MurdexStudio Call FileAccess::get_open_error() or FileAccess::get_error() after opening and check the returned error code to get some clue about what might have gone wrong.

xyz It's says "7"

The error codes are here:
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/4.2/classes/class_%40globalscope.html#enum-globalscope-error

7 is ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

user://Save/GameSave.save

Did you create the directory user://Save ?

I recommend adding this after calling file = FileAccess.open():

err = OK if file != null else FileAccess.get_open_error()
if err != OK:
	print_debug("Failed to open file, error=%d" % err)

		Global.Money = SaveData[0]

Here is the finished version thanks to you and @xyz
