You need to delete the file if it exists before you open it for writing.

save:
if file exist("savegame.txt") then delete file "savegame.txt"
open to write 1, "savegame.txt"
write string 1,str$(x#)
write string 1,str$(y#)
write string 1,str$(z#)
close file 1

i won't see you in the pit

alrightee then?
um
well now when it saves it works...
but when it loads it starts then it says
"Runtime error at line 104. Image does not exist."
question: am i being dumb and missing the obvious, our is it a noobish mistake, or did i just not know something?

but thanks to the_winch, for you got me to the next step!
