Local storage in mobile games

Has anyone tried setting up a save system for a CocoonJS export yet. Do the mobile phones remember the save settings on reopening? Do you need to use local storage or is web storage remembered?

Cheers

Local storage should work in CocoonJS, at least in r99.

Nice one Ash, great to have you active in the forums!

I just noticed this thread - and even though it's over six months old, this topic is pretty up to date to me ;o) Is there any guide out there explaining how LOCAL storage works? Couldn't find any tutorials on that... And there is only the web storage object, no local storage!? How do you use local storage to get a CocoonJS-compatible export??? ;o)

WebStorage = local storage.

ramones: Thanks for your response. First of all, that sounds good. However, why is it stated in the "Export to CocoonJS"-Tutorial that "The WebStorage plugin's session storage is not available. Use local storage or global variables instead." - That doesn't make sense to me if WebStorage and local storage are both the same, does it!?

How is this passage of the tutorial to be understood?

The Webstorage object itself supports two types of storage: "Session" and "Local".

"Session" is just for the scope of that web page / session.

"Local" is saved on the device until cache is cleared. This is the one you must use for CocoonJS.

Thanks a lot for clarification!
