Remember takes a string, not a variable reference.

Ha ha, that totally worked. Awesome!

Thank ya much.

And actually, now that I can use it, I don't really need to save a whole lot (just my target, whether or not I had auto-bashing active, etc...) but would it be terribly straining on the system or bad practice if every time I changed a variable that I wanted saved I did the remember("such and such") ; saveVars() on it?

Only use remember once, it will get the values of stuff when it does saveVars(). and just do saveVars once in your quit trigger or something.

I have the impression remember is not recursive which means if your data contains a table of tables of tables you need to remember all childs individually, that or I am doing something wrong.

Personally I use table.save and table.load (http://mudlet.org/asciidoc/manual.html#tablesave) along with getMudletHomeDir (http://mudlet.org/asciidoc/manual.html#getMudletHomeDir) for data storage in scripts. See my name highlighter for an example.
