Setting event image to previous CanvasSnapshot

Hello again fellow nerds!

I have made some real progress on my current games project and by jove it's really taking shape!

I am here again to ask for your help!

Todays problem involves the CanvasSnapshot feature.

Scenario

I am creating a save feature that allows the player to to see their progress from the previous save.

Once the game has been saved it creates a CanvasSnapshot and then sets an event to that CanvasSnapshot (see images below)

pasteboard.co/1PDNrFm0.png - menu after saving (shows current level state)

pasteboard.co/1PDRjygm.png - menu after closing browser and relaunching game (no image)

pasteboard.co/1PDUQtfG.png - loading the game after closing browser (Loads the game state correctly but does not show image)

Edit - pasteboard.co/1PE9bu93.png - event sheet for save and load.

So my question is: what would be the optimal way to save the CanvasSnapshot and load CanvasSnapshot after the player has closed the browser and re-launches it?

Thanks in advance <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" />

Hello again fellow Nerds!

Ok so I feel I may have not explained my goal as clearly as possible first time round.

So here goes for round 2

I would like to create a save menu that takes a snapshot of the games current state and displays this image in an event.

I have achieved this thus far. see image : pasteboard.co/1SCJZEhg.png

My issue comes when I try to reload/refresh the game client.

The load file is available but the image is not saved, dispite having the sprite be saved along with most other entities/events etc.

When you load the game up again (or even refresh the browser) the snapshot disappears and so the sprite that shows the snapshot returns to a white sprite. See Image : pasteboard.co/1SCYrbQx.png

I have tried a couple of things but don't feel I have gotten anywhere close to the desired function of this.

I am looking for a way to use the snapshot, created when saving, as a way to show the player they have saved even after closing the browser.

I would love to include the CapX but unfortunately it is not possible.

If anyone has any Ideas/suggestions however, please feel free to let me know.

If there is any other information required by yourself then also, let me know

I will respond ASAP.

Thanks in advance

Chris
