Hi everyone, I have been working on a modified version of the Save and Load from XML U3 Collections. I made it so it saved values and load values. I managed to get the save part done but the load part I’m not sure how to setup. I want to make it so when I click on the load button that it loads the XML file and the values from the XML file are assigned to the values within the script.
