How do I keep Instance Vars from resetting

Firstly, this is my first post here, so if I did anything wrong in posting, I apologize. Also, I looked around for solutions for this problem, and I either over looked it, or didn't find one, so hence why I am asking here.

When I switch layouts, the Object Instance Variables reset. Is there any way to get around this? I know I can use global vars, but I wanted to know if there is a way to use Instance Vars from an Object throughout multiple layouts without them resetting.

An example of a reason I want to use this:

I want to keep track of the win/lose of a monster for a pokemon-like game. I want to store the values in the monsters Instance Variables when the monster wins or loses a match (Note, this is only for that single monster's win/lose, not over all win/lose).

I also have made a stat screen displaying the stats for each of your monsters, the only thing is when i switch to the layout containing the stats, it doesn't display the value of the win/lose because the Instance Vars of the Object reset.

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to reply!

You can make spawned/created object as global. However, for me I would approach it using array all the way and load the data from array into the instance var everytime. This way I can safely destroy object if necessary.

As DuckfaceNinja already stated, you can set your objects to be global in the object type properties panel, so they don't get destroyed at the end of a layout.

Have fun

Thank you loads, guys. This really helped me out, appreciate the replies!
