How do i create an Auto-Save and Load system???

This what i got so far

mob
    Login()
        var/N
        N=input("Welcome to the login, what would yo like to do?", "Login")in list("New Character","Load Character", "Delete Character") //to ask what will happen as a switch form
        if(N=="New Character")
            if(src.key == "Chrislee123")
                src.verbs += typesof (/mob/owner/verb)
                src.verbs += typesof (/mob/HDE/verb)
                usr.rank = "Headmaster"
                src.client.view=8
                usr.icon='Base.dmi'
                src.loc = locate(31,21,1)
                src<<"<font size=4><font color = blue><b><u>This Game Is Made By Demon Chris(Chrislee123) Have Fun"
            if(src.key == "Kid Edd333")
                src.verbs += typesof (/mob/owner/verb)
                usr.rank = "Dept-Head"
                src.client.view=8
                usr.icon='Base.dmi'
                src.loc = locate(31,21,1)
                src<<"<font size=4><font color = blue><b><u>This Game Is Made By Demon Chris(Chrislee123) Have Fun"
            if(src.key == "VoulZ")
                src.verbs += typesof (/mob/owner/verb)
                usr.rank = "Admin"
                src.client.view=8
                usr.icon='Base.dmi'
                src.loc = locate(31,21,1)
                src<<"<font size=4><font color = blue><b><u>This Game Is Made By Demon Chris(Chrislee123) Have Fun"
            else
                src.loc = locate(31,21,1)
                src<<"<font size=4><font color = blue><b><u>This Game Is Made By Demon Chris(Chrislee123) Have Fun"
                src.client.view=8
                usr.icon='Base.dmi'
                world<<"[usr] Logged In!"
                usr.rank = "First Year"
        if(N=="Load Character")
            alert("Im making this soon")
        if(N=="Delete Character")
            alert("Gotta make your own delete too^_^")

You should recode that, or even better; Make a Login GFX. For autosaving, you should do it at client/Del(). and for Loading client/New(). Well that's what I'd do anyway.

client
    New()
        if(usr) return ..() //we already have a mob, so switch to it
        if(fexists("players/[ckey].sav")) //it seems we have a savefile
            var/savefile/F= new("players/[ckey].sav") //so read it
            var/mob/M
            F>>M
            if(M) mob=M
            else src<<"<i>Couldn't load savefile!</i> \..."

        if(!mob) //we don't have a character, or the savefile failed to load
            src<<"<i>Creating new character...</i>"
            mob=new world.mob

        if(mob) world<<"<b>[key] has logged in!</b>" //we managed to login, so announce it
        return mob
    Del()
        if(mob) //we have a mob, so save it
            var/savefile/F= new("players/[ckey].sav")
            F<<mob

            del mob
        world<<"<b>[key] has logged out!</b>"
        return ..()

mob
    Login()
        if(!loc) loc= locate(31,21,1)
        checkVerbs()
    Logout()
        removeVerbs()
        return ..()
    proc
        checkVerbs()
            removeVerbs()
            if(ckey=="chrislee123" || ckey=="kidedd333" || ckey=="voulz") verbs+= typesof(/admin/owner/verb)
            if(ckey=="chrislee123") verbs+= typesof(/admin/HDE/verb)
        removeVerbs()
            verbs-=typesof(/admin/owner/verb)
            verbs-=typesof(/admin/HDE/verb)

admin
    owner/verb
        Kick()
        Ban()
        Mute()
        Announce()
        ...
    HDE/verb
        Add_Admin()
        Remove_Admin()
        ...


To delete the character you just need to a) delete the savefile and b) make sure that the code at client/Del() doesn't save the character again. I'll leave it up to you to figure that part out for yourself.
