saving data into "storage" is not working for me (solved)

[CyberWizard2261]

Can someone help me find what's wrong with my code? it looks like I can't save complex objects in the storage variable

Code: Select all

function tesseract_game:save()
	if self.tesseracts ~= nil then
		storage.tesseracts = self.tesseracts
	end
	if self.pointers ~= nil then
		storage.pointers = self.pointers
	end
end

I use this save method every time I modify the data but it looks like storage is only saving tesseracts and pointers with empty tables

There you find information which objects can be saved

found the problem: I forgot to use script.register_metatable after setting the meta-table
