<h1>game_id</h1>
<p>This <b>read only</b> variable returns the unique identifier for the game you have created. You can use this if you need a unique file name, or anything else that needs something to identify your game only. This can be set in the <a href="../../../Settings/Game_Options.htm">Game Options</a>.</p>
<p> </p>
<h4>Syntax:</h4>
<p class="code">game_id</p>
<p> </p>
<h4>Returns:</h4>
<p class="code">Real</p>
<p> </p>
<h4>Example:</h4>
<p class="code">ini_open("Score.ini");<br/> ini_write_real("Scores","0",score + game_id);<br/> ini_close();
</p>
<p>The above code performs a very basic encryption on the score by adding the game_id to it before saving. On reading it back into the game you would deduct the game_id to get the correct value again.</p>
