  • The start of the data that is read is determined by a file pointer. This file pointer is automatically set to the end of data that is read by your Sphere game. The file pointer can be controlled using RawFile.getPosition() and RawFile.setPosition().
  • Any attempt to read more than what is stored in the file will simply return the remainder of the file.
