Multiple User Accounts

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

Been browsing around for a few hours with no luck to a solution. Most questions deal with web based log ins.

My question is: Is it possible in Unity to have it save out a user name and password for multiple accounts so any number of people could use the same computer to log in (locally) and have their data stored for only them to use?

PlayerPrefs doesn’t seem to be the way to go for this as I need to save not only name and password info per account, but also data from every log in to check progress - such as over all accuracy as well as play time accuracy.

I’m thinking I need to have a user account creation menu where it saves a file unique to the name/password combo, then saves all the data in there based on date/time. Don’t know how exactly to go about doing it.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi, im new to most of this portion myself as I have been tackling issues as I get to them. This is one of the ones that im on right now. I do believe there is an account creation script (tool) in the asset store. I do not remember if it was free or not, but there is one for online, and there is one for standalone single player games.

I would also venture to say that checking into the multi-player account creations would act in the same manner, however instead of directing everything to a database on the servers, have it look locally.

I hope that helped at least a little.

Good Luck!
