Is there some kind of extension i can use to save a game and later. When get back on to the game it will have loaded the last place i saved. Is it in the settings extension because i now that when I’m playing a game that i want to be able to save the game instead of playing the game and having to restart if i have to exit my game. (for either school or chores)

> Hey Folks, Today, @jwunderl, @richard, @shakao and I continued working on a game about pirates sailing the high seas! In this stream we illustrated how to use the settings blocks to save strings, arrays, and how to reset your game appropriately when you win or lose. Also we went on a tangent about math and trigonometry. Watch the full stream here: [https://youtu.be/ogpAcdx2pZY](https://youtu.be/ogpAcdx2pZY) And the code can be found below The MakeCode Arcade Advanced stream happens every weekday at 1:00pm PST on [mixer.co…](http://mixer.com/makecode)

This should hopefully help^^
