C# Player Prefs & Toggle| Will not save settings
{UPDATED!} Hey guys, a little help here with a simple toggle:
The following script is suppose to change a material when toggle isON. The script works, in regards to changing the material, but it will not save the settings when I begin a new game. Does anyone know what I should do differently? The script is annotated, and the problem areas are specified for quick revision.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
//Had to copy and paste this into my project folder from the unity packadge,
//not accessing for some reason...
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class swapMaterial : MonoBehaviour {
//plug in material here
public Material anyMat;
//plug in default material here
public Material defaultMat;
//object that is effected by this script.
public GameObject anyObject;
//bool that decides if specified object changes material to gold
public bool isGold;
//this bool is simply here for comparative use.
private bool sotrue = true;
//A toggle that the user can switch on and off to select the gold material or not.
public Toggle GoldenToggle;
//The int that is being stored...
private int midas;
//public Component currentmaterial;
void Awake(){
//*****Help:Suppose to get the settings the player has chosen. Is it gold or not?
midas = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("midas");
//compares the stored int deciding whether material is changed or not...
if (midas == 1) {
isGold = true;
} else {
isGold = false;
}
}
void Update(){
//If bool isGold is true, change material to the material plugged into anyMat.
if (isGold == sotrue) {
anyObject.GetComponent<MeshRenderer> ().sharedMaterial = anyMat;
midas = 1;
}
else {
//Else the material of this object is the selected default.
anyObject.GetComponent<MeshRenderer> ().sharedMaterial = defaultMat;
midas = 0;
}
//If the user has switched the toggle on, then the effected object's material becomes "anyMat"
//in this case, Gold.
if(GoldenToggle.isOn == true){
isGold = true;
//*****HELP: Suppose to save the toggle as on! not working...sets the int based on isGold in this case 1
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("midas", midas);
} //If the toggle is off, then the effected object's material becomes default.
else {
isGold = false;
//*****HELP: Suppose to save the toggle as off! not working...sets the int based on isGold in this case 0
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("midas", midas);
}
//Saves the player's selected settings. In this case, gold or no gold?
//HELP:*****Does not apear to save the settings...problem in above script?
PlayerPrefs.Save ();
}
}
This toggle is a setting to be applied to a new game, so the object in question is gold on new game, or not. I hope someone has a fresh perspective! Thank you all. Happy Deving!
For anyone needing help This script: Successfully changes a material. (scripted to be plunged-into the inspector) Successfully connects to a toggle.
Intended as a setting to be applied on New Game.
have you tryed changing it to PlayerPrefs.GetString() and PlayerPrefs.SetString() as it should return true or false
and if you are using SetInt() and GetInt() isGold should look like this:
isGold = PlayerPrefs.GetInt ("Name");
if (isGold == 1){
//Do Something that is equal to true
}else{
//Do something that is equal to false
}
Thank you for the suggestion, after you had replied, I took both pieces of your advice. i still could not get this to work. I appreciate your feedback, I am still having issues. :<
