I am trying to add in a shared object so that I can save and load the game from a local computer. I have followed a tutorial on Kirupa tutorials section but my expierence with this is limited. Can anyone help me out with this night mare of a problem.
I have added in the action script so you can get a better understanding of what i am trying to accomplish.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I am willing to pay to get this working as I have been trying for 3 or 4 months now.

I have also added a link to the SWF so you can see how the game works. Click Here
The FLA is also available on request.
