Load a score from one scene to another scene

Hello, I have a score manager script that is attached to my score text in my hierarchy.
In my first scene the score works fine by killing enemies. how to i send the score from the first scene to the second scene to continue to increase my score. i tried DontDestroyOnLoad but didn’t work. How do i use it to update my score.

here is my score script.

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using System.Collections;

public class ScoreManager : MonoBehaviour
{
public static int score;

Text text;

void Awake ()
{
    text = GetComponent <Text> ();
    score = 0;
}

void Update ()
{
    text.text = "Score: " + score;
}

}

Making it static should make it persist through scenes. PlayerPrefs is a usual method but it is insecure.

 –

how do i add PlayerPrefs method to the script? Can you assist me with some bonding. Thanks

This should help you, Unity - Scripting API: PlayerPrefs you can use the player prefs to save the score and then make a script to load it when you load the next scene.

I read about the PlayerPrefs. But how do i use that in my score script.

 –

Text text; void Awake () { text = GetComponent <Text> (); score = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Score"); } void Update () { text.text = "Score: " + score; PlayerPrefs.SetInt("Score", score); } That "Should" work to set the value of the player pref to the same value of your score, if that does not work then try changing Awake to Start

 –

That was just perfect. it worked thanks a lot.

 –

How do i rest the score back to 0 when its gameover and i want to start again.

 –

just put this in your script where you want to delete the score public static void DeleteKey(int Score); that should work if i recall correctly.
