Delete saved game - updating onClick listeners dynamically

Hi, I've implemented Save / load / delete in my game using playerprefs.

I've got a problem when it comes to the delete function on each saved object. When I fire my delete function, everything works correctly and as expected. However I'm not really sure what's the best way to update the onClick listeners. When I remove an element from my List<SavedGame>, this updates the list and the relevant index for each item. However my listener is still pointing towards a specific index that is no longer correct for some elements. I know I could remove all listeners and then add listeners again to every saved object but is there any other method for saving these files that would suit better? Thanks

My code looks like this.

Code (CSharp):

1. //the saved games i grab from playerprefs that are parsed to list in my start function
2. public List<SavedGame> savedList;
3.  
4. //Vertical layout element to house saveobject prefabs
5. public GameObject savedGameContainer
6.  
7. //Savegame ui prefab
8. public GameObject savePrefab;
9.  
10. private void SetupButtonListeners (){
11.     for(int i = 0; i < savedList.count; i++){
12.         int index = i;
13.         GameObject prefab = Instantiate(savedPrefab, false);
14.         prefab.GetComponent<Button>().onClick.AddListener(() => {
15.             DeleteSavedGame(index);
16.             Destroy(prefab);
17.       })
18.    }
19. }
20.  
21. public void DeleteSavedGame(int index){
22.      savedList.RemoveAt(index);
23.      //parse list and save to playerprefs below
24. }

 

Have you considered serializing your saved files?

At minute 32, this video talks about using BinaryFormatter of the System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary namespace.

 

Hi Ismael, So using this solution, I would save each file individually. I suppose this would probably be a better alternative. I'll look into this, thankyou
