# Save it to a file (overwrite if already exists).
config.save("user://scores.cfg")
[/codeblock]
This example shows how the above file could be loaded:
[codeblock]
var score_data = {}
var config = ConfigFile.new()
# Load data from a file.
var err = config.load("user://scores.cfg")
# If the file didn't load, ignore it.
if err != OK:
return
# Iterate over all sections.
for player in config.get_sections():
# Fetch the data for each section.
var player_name = config.get_value(player, "player_name")
var player_score = config.get_value(player, "best_score")
score_data[player_name] = player_score
[/codeblock]
Keep in mind that section and property names can't contain spaces. Anything after a space will be ignored on save and on load.
ConfigFiles can also contain manually written comment lines starting with a semicolon ([code];[/code]). Those lines will be ignored when parsing the file. Note that comments will be lost when saving the ConfigFile. This can still be useful for dedicated server configuration files, which are typically never overwritten without explicit user action.
