Variables Across Scenes

Unity Engine
1

I’m actually really starting to learn how to make some of this scripting stuff work and in Javascript mostly. I’m mostly an artist so it’s like learning Chinese to me, I get the logic mostly though. While I’m trying to figure out how to implement shooting and AI constrained to 2 axises something occurred to me…

How does one keep a variable across scenes? Let’s say that I want to be able to pick a load-out for a vehicle during intermission stages or from say, a menu. Is there some core location to store these or am I missing the boat?

There is a method called DontDestroyOnLoad(). You can implement it by creating a script in your first scene and put the following in the Awake function:

function Awake (){
	DontDestroyOnLoad (this);
}

You can then place all you global variables in this file as static (java) or public(c#)

That looks perfect, thanks that should help a lot.
