[Trouble creating/writing to file.]

UPDATE: I finally got it to work. It seems that I had "Sandboxing" enabled in the editor's options and that was preventing it from working. Thanks for all your help.

Your second code shows a "/" is inserted, and the first one does not.

The path being in the proper format was the first thing I looked into when I started having trouble. That doesn't seem to be the issue. 

Furthermore, I tried using the FileSystem:CreateFile() and FileSystem:OpenFile() commands that Marcousik suggested, but that doesn't work for me either. My local "stream" variable continues to return a nil value.

Greetings!

I'm hitting a wall trying to create a game state file that can be opened and read back. Here is my code.
 

filePath = FileSystem:GetAppDataPath() .. "gamestate.txt"


function Script:UpdatePhysics()
	
	if window:KeyHit(Key.S) then
		local stream = FileSystem:WriteFile(filePath) 
		if (stream==nil) then Debug:Error("Failed to write file.") end

		stream:WriteInt(GameData)
		stream:Release()
	end

end

When I run the program and press the key to create and save the file, the debug error is fired and the program ends. I can't tell if the problem lies in my code or somewhere else. 

[What does CallOutputs() do?]

Thank you!

[What does CallOutputs() do?]

Hello, all.

I'm new to coding in Leadwerks and I'm looking over some of the included scripts to get a feel for how they work. I can interpret most of it, but I keep coming across function calls like, "self:CallOutputs(string)" or "self.component:CallOutputs(string)" and I have no idea what the function does, nor can I find anything about it in the documentation. Could someone please explain to me what it does, or direct me to where it is discussed in the documentation?

Thank you!
