GameManager issue on level load

Hello everyone,

So basically i am having a couple of issues with the levels of the game. So here is what's happening:

I have a main menu of the game, it has the play, levels, and quit buttons.

Play: takes me to the first level of the scene.

Levels: takes me to the "Levels select" scene.

But here is the big problem. So when i start the first level from the "Play", it begins level 1 and goes on to the other levels when 1 is completed.

But when i select a level from the "Levels Select" scene, let's say level 5, and then i finish level five, it doesn't take me to level 6 as it should, but rather takes me to level 2. I know the problem is from the GameManager, but i can't seem to know the right function to fix this.

This is the GameManager:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class GameManager : MonoBehaviour {
5.     public static int currentScore;
6.     public static int highScore;
7.  
8.     public static int currentLevel = 0;
9.  
10.  
11.     public float startTime;
12.     private string currentTime;
13.  
14.     void Start()
15.     {
16.         DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
17.     }
18.  
19.     public static void CompleteLevel()
20.     {
21.         if (currentLevel < 7)
22.         {
23.             currentLevel += 1;
24.             Application.LoadLevel(currentLevel);              
25.         } else {
26.             print ("Well done for completing the game, more levels coming soon ;)");
27.         }  
28.     }
29.  
30.  
31. }

And this is the LevelsSelect Scene:

Code (CSharp):

1. var isLevelone=false;
2. var isLeveltwo=false;
3. var isLevelthree=false;
4. var isLevelfour=false;
5. var isLevelfive=false;
6. var isLevelsix=false;
7. var isLevelseven=false;
8. var isBack=false;
9.  
10. function OnMouseEnter(){
11.     //change text color
12.     renderer.material.color=Color.red;
13. }
14.  
15. function OnMouseExit(){
16.     //change text color
17.     renderer.material.color=Color.white;
18. }
19.  
20. function OnMouseUp(){
21.     //is this quit
22.     if (isLevelone==true) {
23.         Application.LoadLevel(0);
24.     }
25.    
26.     else if (isLeveltwo==true) {
27.         Application.LoadLevel(1);
28.     }
29.    
30.     else if (isLevelthree==true) {
31.         Application.LoadLevel(2);
32.     }
33.    
34.     else if (isLevelfour==true) {
35.         Application.LoadLevel(3);
36.     }
37.    
38.     else if (isLevelfive==true) {
39.         Application.LoadLevel(4);
40.     }
41.    
42.     else if (isLevelsix==true) {
43.         Application.LoadLevel(5);
44.     }
45.    
46.     else if(isLevelseven==true){
47.         Application.LoadLevel(6);
48.        
49.     }
50.    
51.     else if(isBack==true) {
52.         Application.LoadLevel(7);
53.     }
54. }
55.  
56. function Update(){
57.     //quit game if escape key is pressed
58.     if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Escape)){
59.              Application.Quit();
60.     }
61. }

 

Everytime you call ApplicationLoadLevel() you have to also update GameManager.currentLevel.
I think you could also get rid of all that boolean and if(isLevelxxx==true) just by setting currentLevel and calling Application.LoadLevel(GameManager.currentLevel).

 

I set up my GameManare class to have a function to load the level, and it calls Application.LoadLevel. This way it know when a level changes and it sets the current level, because it did the loading of it.

 

Yes i do understand, but the problem is that i have different scenes, and the level select scene has its own script, while the GameManager has it's own script, so how would Application.LoadLevel work if i have both scripts setup differently?

Thanks for the reply.

 

You pass in to the method what's need for that specific scene.
