In my game I have the inventory which when saved links to the Datasaver which isn’t destroyed between scenes. The reason for this is because its a space game so the inventory script doesn’t work in the space scene between scenes. I’ve tried over and over to get it to work and I haven’t really gotten anywhere. Below is the script for the DataSaver which is called first at the start of each scene.
public void load()
{
if (File.Exists(Application.persistentDataPath + "/playerInfo.dat"))
{
print("load");
BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();
FileStream file = File.Open(Application.persistentDataPath + "/playerInfo.dat", FileMode.Open);
PlayerData data = (PlayerData)bf.Deserialize(file);
remist2 = data.remist;
relime2 = data.relime;
reolive2 = data.reolive;
reaqua2 = data.reaqua;
file.Close();
Inventory.control.loading(remist2, relime2, reolive2, reaqua2);
}
}
The Debugs are to help me figure out which part is working during play time. Then the information is sent to inventory to update the variables there.
public void loading(int remist2, int relime2, int reolive2, int reaqua2)
{
remist = remist2;
relime = relime2;
reolive = reolive2;
reaqua = reaqua2;
print("loading to inv");
}
Later on the variables are saved to datasaver by sending the variables across to it
public void save()
{
print("save");
DataFile.controldata.save(remist, relime, reolive, reaqua);
}
When they arrive datasaver saves them and then after that when the scene changes and changes back it reloads the data from the file except it isn’t come up with the values. But it is working because I noticed when I stopped the game and replayed it, the values were there but that’s the only instance that they have saved
public void save(int remist, int relime, int reolive, int reaqua)
{
BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();
FileStream file = File.Create(Application.persistentDataPath + "/playerInfo.dat");
PlayerData data = new PlayerData();
data.remist = remist;
data.relime = relime;
data.reolive = reolive;
data.reaqua = reaqua;
bf.Serialize(file, data);
file.Close();
}
Please ask if there is more information that is required
