[GM6] Won't Declare a Variable

I'm trying, to load a sprite from a .sav file.  But the variable won't declare:

Code: [Select]

{

   
    ini_open('1.sav');
    box_color = ini_read_string('Character','sprite','1');
   
    ini_close();
   

   
}

and then under create for the object:

Code: [Select]

{

    if( box_color == "1" )
    {
    sprite_index = sprite_red;
    }

   
}

but it says unknown variable.

What variable is unknown? Where does the first script you posted exist in? Is it a separate script? Is it in the step event?

Try using "global.box_color" in both codes.
(EDIT: Or refer from which object you're getting this variable.)
