How do you make "something" go into a folder (logs)??

[Switch]

Ok I have this script I'm working on and I need some help.
I'm trying to log who does what and I know how, but I don't know how to put it in a text file.
If someone could tell me how I'd be really appreciative.

PHP Code:

temp.log = "Bob used a tool around 9 o'clock";
temp.file2 = 0;

temp.file.loadstring("path/to/file/name_here.txt");
if (file.length() > 0) {
  file2 = file, file2 @= "," @ log;
  file2.savestring("path/to/file/name_here.txt", 0);
}else log.savestring("path/to/file/name_here.txt", 0); 


didn't test it, but I think it should work

I think there are some in-built ones, will edit post when I find them
E:

PHP Code:

savelog(str)
savelog2(str, str)

filename (relative to the logs/ directory), and the text to save to log. Text is automatically timestamped.
ex: savelog2("stafftool.txt", "zomg h4x");

PHP Code:

savelog("omg, someone hacked");
// serverside -> logs/ folder
// clientside -> F2 (Dunno if that has changed with V5)

savelog2("banklog.txt", "Someone stole all the gralats from the nation bank of Graal.");
// Something like that, serverside only  will save to logs/gralats.txt 


and

not levels/logs/*
but logs/*

Ok but for the serverside, what file in the logs/ would it save as?
Also, it's the same with v5, just maybe in the Scripts section.

I know it's logs/* silly

savelog() serverside, hmm, not sure, try it? It saves it into 1 file all the time, logs.txt or something like that

Don't mean to hijack your thread or anything... but is there a way to save a log locally to the player's computer?

you can use loadstring and savestring on clientside and it will save inside graal/scriptfiles/SERVERNAME/
