    how to save game progress

  • What do you actually mean with game progress? Just a few variables or/and the current position?

    The easiest way would be the Save/Load SaveGame function. Otherwise use an array and save the array in the LocalStorage.

    Because your saving function is wrong.

    You must use

    LocalStorage - Set key 'playercoins_key' to playercoins

    instead.

  • but this is totally your file that i have download

    i have just added a bouncing ball and with every bouncing add 1 to player coin

    .

    i have done nothing with with this file

  • Yes, and the part you added is missing the fact of saving some informations.

    The default capx does check on start of execution of the game if a key exists.

    If it doesn't, it creates a default value and creates the key,

    Otherwise, it sets a global variable value to the value contained in the key.

    Then you added a modification of the global variable, but at no point did you save the value of this variable to the key.

    So the modification is lost each time you execute the game and only loads the "default value" which is contained in the key.

    ''but at no point did you save the value of this variable to the key.''

    .

  • This means that you have to save the variable after each change of it.

    I already mentioned above how you can save it. Jusr add this after you had updated the coins.
