Ok, I've watched this tutorial because I wanted to know how to save in flash. But I need to know something.
Say, I'm creating a game, which automatically saves progress between levels (if somebody can tell me how to do this please do) and before starting, you need to enter your (nick)name, as shown in the tut. Now, I did this, and play a few levels, quit, and come back later. When I load, will I return to the level where I was last time?

I'm asking because that's not really clear in the tutorial...

Using Flush(); will save there and then. If you don't use it the game will save when the window is closed.

When I load, will I return to the level where I was last time?

If you tell the game to go to the last level you were at using the saved data, it will.

But will the the code the tutorial gives me do that?

Of course not, it doesn't tell you anything that is going on. I say, screw tutorials and just read the manual.
