  • Im currently developing for android and ios, that happens also on mobile?

    The localstorage is unique for each game, at least on android.

    On a website the share the same LocalStorage, so it's recommended to use a prefix.

    But to be absolutely sure, just always use a prefix like the game name "GAME_highscore"

  • I figured it out. The problem was with the line you mentioned but not for the reason you mentioned. I had it so it only set a highscore when the highscore was already less than 0. since I already had a highscore in my debugger local storage it worked fine, but when I transferred over to a new environment the highscore was set to zero so it wouldn't set a new one. when I ran your capx it set my local highscore to a positive number and my games highscore stopped working in the debugger. Thanks for the help!

    Great news You're welcome!

  • I wish that were the case, but my entire scoring system is based in negative. The score is less than 0

    Sorry I didn't know that you are working with negative scores. I rebuild your case but with positive scores and it works fine on my end.

    You can check out the capx over here.

    LocalStorage - HighScore Capx

    Maybe you can find the issue with my example. Otherwise add the Browser plugin and Alert the current value saved in the local storage and so on (for debugging).

  • can't give links, but will a picture of the relevant code do?

    it works fine when I test it, just not when I upload it.

    Hi,

    that's fine. You made a simple mistake.

    See following part

    Score < HighScore (fine)

    HighScore < 0 (this is only true if the score is less than 0 --> Set it to HighScore > 0).

    That's why your HighScore will never be saved.

  • I seem to have a problem. I have a fairly simple localStorage high score function that works fun when I run the layout from C2, but when I exported it and uploaded it to chromestore and scirra arcade, it just returns 0, any ideas on how i could fix this? thanks.

    Hi,

    it would help us a lot if you could provide a capx example

    Otherwise it's nearly impossible to say what the issue causes.

  • Hi,

    I recently have published my first ebook in the scirra store about "How to make a mobile game using CocoonIO". You can learn more from it here.

    https://www.scirra.com/store/ebooks/qui ... ebook-1893

    This book starts from the very beginning and ends with a compiled Android game using AdMob to monetize it.

    Just download the preview pdfs <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

    Any feedback is appreciated.

    Regards

  • Back button works and there are two options to quit app. If you use Canvas+ you can use Exit app. If not you can use also Browser-Close function. Both of them works with the new Cocoon, however after exiting the app, it gives "app has stopped" error. First I was thinking this may be from my game (memory or not destroying some processes well), then I have tried it with empty project and get the same error. I am now very unhappy with the new Cocoon system and it will be activated at the end of this month with deprecating the previous CocoonJs platform. If these kind of problems not solved properly we will get many complaints from users.

    I'm using Cocoon.io since the beginning and I never have had such issues.

    I'm only using the official Cocoon Atomic plugins for Ads and so on, made a third-party plugin / behavior is causing the crash.

    Use the developer app to see why your game had crashed.
