float and int on player prefs
Hello ı aim to save the highscore to player prefs when the score is higher than current highscore here is my codeand the errors i get. Thanks in advance
Assets/Scripts/Score.cs(43,45): error CS1502: The best overloaded method match for UnityEngine.PlayerPrefs.SetInt(string, int)' has some invalid arguments Assets/Scripts/Score.cs(43,45): error CS1503: Argument #2' cannot convert float' expression to type int'
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using System.Collections;
public class Score : MonoBehaviour
{
public Text scoreText;
public Text endGame;
public Text saniye;
public float myTimer = 0.0f;
public float life;
public Text highScoreText;
public float highScore = 0;
string highScoreKey = "HighScore";
void Start()
{
scoreText = GetComponent<Text>();
endGame.text = "";
saniye.text = "";
highScore = PlayerPrefs.GetInt(highScoreKey,0);
}
void Update()
{
life = healthBar.cur_health;
if (life > 0) {
myTimer += Time.deltaTime;
Debug.Log("life < 0");
scoreText.text = Mathf.Round(myTimer).ToString();
}
if (life < 0) {
Debug.Log("life < 0");
endGame.text = Mathf.Round(myTimer).ToString();
scoreText.text = "";
saniye.text ="Secs Alive";
if(myTimer>highScore){
PlayerPrefs.SetInt(highScoreKey, myTimer);
PlayerPrefs.Save();
}
}}
}
You are setting int to float . You have to convert float to int.
PlayerPrefs.SetInt(highScoreKey, (int) myTimer);
Also , Why not using PlayerPrefs.SetFloat to save a float value like time? This way you don't need to cast your type:
PlayerPrefs.SetFloat(highScoreKey, myTimer);
var timer = PlayerPrefs.GetFloat(highScoreKey);
Hello mujpir,
"PlayerPrefs.SetInt(highScore$$anonymous$$ey, (int) myTimer);" this worked well thanks alot.
Of course it "works" with a cast, but you should keep in $$anonymous$$d that when casting a float to an int you loose precision. For example a value of "5.78" would become simply "5" as an int can only hold integer numbers (whole numbers). So it would be better to use "PlayerPrefs.SetFloat" like mujpir said.
