Subject: [PATCH] Fixes string loading

Fixes https://github.com/rekterakathom/Overthrow/issues/132

Makes it so, when saving the player, checks the arrays for nested arrays, and ignores every variable that starts with "@"

Since the server also does not deal with this, I think it has no reason to save it inside the player. Also, currently its saving the values without quotes, as mentioned in the issue linked.
