I heard that there was supposed to be some sort of way to store information on blizzard's servers using triggers, for example saved profiles for an RPG. Is there any way to use this with the current editor?

I have mostly left SEN except for the Temple Siege 2 forum (hidden to most of you). I am available via PM still, and Skype as JackRCDF.

If it is important to you, you will find a way. Otherwise, you will find an excuse. -Unknown
Magnificent!
Perhaps you shouldn't be on SEN as much, too...

I'm not entirely certain how it works, but something like that... It's the "Banks" within the editor.

From what I can tell, it stores the Bank locally, not on battle.net. This is highly annoying.

Q: Will there be a way to save your characters?

A: We do have support for what we’re calling banks. Basically you can store info on your local system, any kind of info you want to store.

Perhaps, in the future, Blizzard will be kind enough to allocate some server-side storage space for each user, allowing custom maps to use it for securely storing game data and characters. This will let players carry certain characters, achievements and items between games: imagine a DoTA-style long running game where players can resume playing, using their stored character – or even carry it to other, similar game worlds.

Yep, darn.
