Alright so here is my code and I am getting errors. I need help guys. Below is my code.

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

public class ScoreManager : MonoBehaviour
{

	public static int score = 0;
	public Text scoreText;
	public Text bestText;

	void Start ()
	{
		DontDestroyOnLoad (gameObject);
		DontDestroyOnLoad (scoreText);
		DontDestroyOnLoad (bestText);
		DontDestroyOnLoad (score);
		if (score > PlayerPrefs.GetInt (Application.loadedLevel + "Best")) 
		{
			PlayerPrefs.SetInt (Application.loadedLevel + "Best", score);
			//Play new high score animation
			scoreText.text = "" + score;
			bestText.text = "" + PlayerPrefs.GetInt (Application.loadedLevel + "Best");
		}
	}

	void Update ()
{
		scoreText.text = "" + score;
		bestText.text = "" + PlayerPrefs.GetInt (Application.loadedLevel + "Best");
}
}

Here are the errors:

MissingReferenceException: The object of type ‘Text’ has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it.
Your script should either check if it is null or you should not destroy the object.
UnityEngine.EventSystems.UIBehaviour.IsActive () (at C:/buildslave/unity/build/Extensions/guisystem/UnityEngine.UI/EventSystem/UIBehaviour.cs:22)

DontDestroyOnLoad only works on root gameobjects or on components that are located on a root object. If you use it on a child object but not on the parent it have no effect at all.

That means if you load a new level the object is destroyed anyways.

If you use DontDestroyOnLoad on the root object that object and all of it’s child objects won’t be destroyed when you load a new level.

You have not referenced your ‘scoreText’ and ‘bestText’ in you Inspector panel. Just drag n drop the respective Text file in the Inspector.
