Hello!

I have an android game and I use a JSON file to store the info.

This is the system

This is how it looks inside

I'm working on an update and I need to expland the json with more items, imagine I want to add "Unlock5, 6, 7..." etc.

But I'm not sure on how to do do it, since people who has already a saved state, has the old variable. How could I expand it for users who udpate the app?

Thank you!

You will have to cook up a system that checks for that. Something like: Go through all keys that should be there and if it isn't, add it.

Sorry for the delay! Yes, I thought it was it, however I cannot make it work :( I canno t find the way to add a new key while keeping the existing ones.

I've tried with new object, set path, set json...

I was trying stuff like this but it doesn't work -.-
