I have a text file which is a game save for my java game (cookie clickers) so the stuff in the file will be numbers without spaces. Like so:
10 20 30 40 50 I need to read the lines and save each one to its string.
So the strings should be like this, so I can use them a lot easier:
lives = 10 kills = 20 score = 30 ... The saving code will be in its class file (Save.class). I only need the code, other stuff should not be a problem.
Is there some kind of easy way to make it work as I want?
You can use a Scanner as follows:
Scanner s = new Scanner(new File("your file")); String lives = s.nextLine(); String kills = s.nextLine(); String score = s.nextLine(); ... s.close(); 
Scanner is good here.
List<String> list = new LinkedList<>(); Scanner scan = new Scanner(new File("the_file")); while (scan.hasNextLine()) list.add(scan.nextLine()); I recommend you to use an ArrayList. Like this:
Scanner s = new Scanner(new File(//Here the path of your file)); ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(); while (s.hasNext()) { list.add(s.nextLine()); } Now you will have stored all the lines of your file so you can access each of them like this:
for(int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) { System.out.println("The content of the line " + i + " it's " + list.get(i); } I expect it will be helpful for you!
System.out.println you can store there all the variables (in an array or whatever you want).BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(FILE_PATH)); String line = null; int index = 0; while((line = reader.readLine()) != null) { if(index == 0) { line1 = line; } else if(index == 1) { line2 = line; } else if(index == 2) { line3 = line; } index++; } or you could read the text and save it as string array
also you might would like to use this http://ini4j.sourceforge.net
line1 = reader.readLine(); line2 = reader.readLine();...?
Use readAllLines:
File data = new File("textfile.txt"); List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(data.toPath()); 
line1, line2, ... were placeholders for his actual variables, such as livesLeft, kills, score, ...This way of saving game state smells. It seems that you're on your way on reinventing the wheel. Why don't you use a properties file where you can save the key(lives, kills, score) and the value ? It would make the code a lot more readable.
String gameStateFile = "gameState.properties"; Properties gameProperties = new Properties(); gameProperties.load(input); String lives = gameProperties.get("lives");
