ringkeep
What is ringkeep?
This is a lua script that allows you to keep rings in-between levels. Not only that, but you don't lose all your rings upon taking damage. When the player takes damage, depending on when they were last hit they will have a certain percentage of their rings drop. Getting hit multiple times within a short time frame means you lose more rings! If you die via drowning, falling into a pit, etc., half your rings are taken away.
On top of that, this script utilizes lua IO to save your highest score at the end of a level, meaning you can come back at a later time to try to beat that score you just set for yourself! The files are stored in a folder named "ringkeep" in the usual luafiles folder.
Do note this script should be netplay compatible, but I haven't tested that just yet.
