I’m new to learning unity and I want to save highscore of 1st scene and carry it forward to 2nd scene an continue from there and also save it when i exit the game but it’s not happening rather than saving it’s starting from 0 for other scene. i have tried using playerprefs but its not working.
An excellent discussion of loading/saving in Unity3D by Xarbrough:
Loading/Saving ScriptableObjects by a proxy identifier such as name:
When loading, you can never re-create a MonoBehaviour or ScriptableObject instance directly from JSON. The reason is they are hybrid C# and native engine objects, and when the JSON package calls new to make one, it cannot make the native engine portion of the object.
Instead you must first create the MonoBehaviour using AddComponent() on a GameObject instance, or use ScriptableObject.CreateInstance() to make your SO, then use the appropriate JSON “populate object” call to fill in its public fields.
If you want to use PlayerPrefs to save your game, it’s always better to use a JSON-based wrapper such as this one I forked from a fellow named Brett M Johnson on github:
Do not use the binary formatter/serializer: it is insecure, it cannot be made secure, and it makes debugging very difficult, plus it actually will NOT prevent people from modifying your save data on their computers.
