	Super::BeginPlay();
	
	UOneSaveGame* sg = Cast<UOneSaveGame>(UGameplayStatics::CreateSaveGameObject(UOneSaveGame::StaticClass()));
	sg->SetCurrentLevel(25);
	UGameplayStatics::SaveGameToSlot(sg, "saveGameOne", 0);

	sg = nullptr;
	
	UOneSaveGame* currentSave = (UOneSaveGame*)UGameplayStatics::LoadGameFromSlot("saveGameOne", 0);
	int lvl = currentSave->GetCurrentLevel();

}
