[HELP] External File Problem

[RaptrStudios]

So i have a .love file that has code that requires a external file named 'money.lua' and it says it does not exist. Oddly enough this doesn't happen when its not in a .love file. I am running the newest version of love.
Heres the stuffs

The problem may be because the file "money.lua" is not being created on line 85.

I don't think love.filesystem.newFile() actually writes a physical file to the hard drive. love.filesystem.write() will create a file if it does not exist. You can try changing that line to:

Code: Select all

if not love.filesystem.exists("money.lua") then
    coins = love.filesystem.write("money.lua", "File contents")
end

So i have a .love file that has code that requires a external file...

If you mean a file that's not in the .love file, then you can use the game's save folder to load in files, and to save them there.

Also, i have encountered an error, i fixed the problem with a .love file but when i export it to a .exe it says that the file could not be found!
How could i fix this??
