How do I use the LocalStorage Plugin?

Great!

And as a bonus, I learn to use function object!

It would work to very well for katzin's tests, because it works for multi layout project...

Thank you very much AndreasR !

Thanks a lot Death and Andreas for your support

You're welcome, I'm glad to help

I'm trying to use this to make a high score system, here's what i have so far.

On start of layout: Check item "HighScore_Key" exists

On item "HighScore_Key" exists: Get item "HighScore_Key"

On item "HighScore_Key" get: Set HighScore to LocalValue.ItemValue

On item "HighScore_Key" missing: Set item "HighScore_Key" to TotalDistance (which is the current score value)

Every tick: highscoretext: Set text to HighScore (which is the global variable)

It starts out like usual but then when the game ends, the number goes right back to 0. Do you know how to fix this?

Thanks for any help!

I am actually using the Local Storage, but i just called it WebStorage. I forgot to add a reset button so if you do, i'm pretty sure it takes the high score back to 0 too.

Please save as 'Single File' instead of saving as a project. I can't open the uploaded file. It must end with .capx

Oh, sorry. Here's the single file. https://www.dropbox.com/s/296as2rrrem6z ... .capx?dl=0

I altered the way how to update the current score.

You just forget to 'Set Item '...' to HighScore' to save it. Now it works.

Thank you!

Okay, so i tested it and it worked fine. I got the score to 8,000 just to make sure it works. Then i copied the events into my game, and i tested it, the high score was going up fine as i played, but when the game was over, the high score went to 8,000. I went back to the one you made and i changed the score to 50. Then i tested my game again and the high score went to 50 when the game ended. So the high score was saving the project you made even though it was a whole another project. I even deleted the project and it still did the same thing. Do you know how to fix this? Sorry, i'm still a beginner. Thanks!

It's hard to say what the problem of your code is, whithout seeing your code.

I only can check it if you drop me a mail with your project file.
