So I’m a bit stumped here. I’ve been trying to make a blueprint for my item where if you collect this item, it’ll appear on the level results screen widget at the end. I can’t for the life of me figure this out and I feel like it’s super friggin simple yet I can’t wrap my head around it.
Why are you going through a save game cycle? Also, not sure how this relates to a “results” widget at all? Where is the widget? How are you displaying the items? The most straightforward way is just use the game instance. Unless you really need this to be “saved” as in remember the items when the game is off, the game instance will be fine for remembering items collected through multiple levels. Save the boolean in the game instance, when it is collected set it to true after grabbing a reference to your game instance. Then when you create your widget whenever that happens again reference the game instance and set the images of the collectibles in the widget based on the booleans from the game instance. If you need help understanding how to get references or using the game instance, or even save/load cycles check out videos #20, 21 and 25 in the link below. You may find them useful.
Ah okay dope, thanks! Yeah, so basicly what I was trying to do here is make the game save the fact that you got these collectables, so when you quit the game, you’ll still have them. I’ll go ahead and follow your instructions and check out those videos. Gonna see if I can get this system set up.
