Is this save/load function more complicated than it needs to be?
Code:
case 10:
ofstream save;
ifstream load;
int choice;
int weapon_id=0; //for save function
int scroll1_id=0;
int scroll2_id=0;
int scroll3_id=0;
int room_id=0;
ROOM* search_room;
SCROLL* ptemp_room;
WEAPON* ptemp_room1;
int room_scroll_id;
cout<<"1. Save"<<endl;
cout<<"2. Load"<<endl;
cout<<"3. Back"<<endl;
cout<<"Selection: ";
cin>>choice;
if(choice==1)
{
cout<<endl<<"Saving"<<flush;

I am not able to save the addresses for pointers, or something like that. I forgot. But I ended up having to search for the id/flag numbers.
