Create Cloud Storage Block

Well, I don't really know how the Cloud storage will work, but I think that It would be good if you make a "Create Cloud Storage" block. With this block we could make a Cloud Storage what will only contains the things about ONE user. So we could make similar games like Grepolis, Dragon Story and some online card games.

I would need this block for a Horse Racing game, with online rankings, and store informations (wins, looses, digital coins, etc...) about all person, what will be saved after he/she quit the game.

Sorry for my english, but I'm from hungary.
(Did you Know that The creator of 21th Century Fox was came from hungary?(

Re: Create Cloud Storage Block

This is possible in the 2.0 alpha (which hasn't been released to the public yet) by using Cloud Variables. Cloud variables are normal variables but are the same for all instances of the project. Technically, this has already been implemented: for stuff like this you would use Cloud Lists.

Re: Create Cloud Storage Block

As said above, this can be done. Just create multiple cloud lists. Also, your English is almost perfect! Just one thing I noticed!

What I meant was that anyone who play with this game, and press an in-game button (like "Sign Up") would automaticly create a new cloud storage only for him/her informations. Will that be possible or not?

Re: Create Cloud Storage Block

Last I remembered, its not implemented, but you can emulate it with a system like this.
