Hm...

Memory save and load program for DOS: Possible, good idea, bad idea, etc?

Preferrably saving specific segments of memory that apply to certain programs: possible?

Would make certain games a lot more fun, with such a load feature. [*cough*] TerraScape [/*cough*]
You can save at the checkpoints dude...
Actually not.
The save puts you in the beginning of the level, but your weapons ammo in save game is your current ammo. With a little (more) patience you can achieve infinite ammo. (or 999 which is the maximum)
.....hmm
imagine:

Code:
start the first level
FOR index=0 to 3
get to the two nearest bunkers
blast them
collect 2 IONs
save
load
NEXT index

as a result, you'll have 800 rounds of ION at the beginning of a first level. yeah I know, it's lazy design

An it's not that hard that you should save everywhere.
The latest levels are short but hectic.
I was on the Mars level yesterday. Still am. Sad Takes me eons to kill all the buggers! Already have 999 for the first two, 999 snd would be sweet.
