Displaying PlayerPref As Text Using New Unity GUI

Questions & Answers
1

I just upgraded to unity 5 and i’m having trouble understanding how to use the new GUI. I’d like to use it instead of the legacy one but I’m not quite understanding how it works and the tutorials i’ve watched don’t seem to be helping.

basically i just want the new GUI Text to display how much money the player has which is taken from a playerpref called GoldAmount.

You would have to do some coding for that. Just create a simple script like this:

public Text goldText;

void Update()
{
    goldText.text = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("GoldAmount").ToString();
}

and place it on an object in your scene. Make sure to point the goldText variable to the UI Text gameObject.
