I can't check right now, but try deleting the file at the start of your code. I think I had a problem with that before, and get rid of the file exists stuff, I'm pretty sure you don't need it.

no no no
u do not understand
when u open to write it creates a new file automatically
and if it cant create a new file(it already exists) then it wont do anything

here is what u should be using




they really need to update that part of the help file to where it says "The file should not exist" and it should return a runtime error if it does(it dont but it should)

formerly shadows of emptiness
