Hi all!
I don't know how to get some unikal ID of the game. How to get the date of today or date of game starting?

There is no ID of a game and no way to get any kind of date/time in mods.
Additionally there's nothing unique about any save file. You could have 2 save files generated at 2 completely different dates that end up binary identical if you happen to save at the same tick.

And when I want it use only like:
Code: Select all
game.write_file(os.date('%Y%m%d') ..".txt", data)
Then, it must be every day a new log-file, not overwriting an old one.
