18.  
19.     var ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);
20.     if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
21.     {
22.         if (Physics.Raycast (ray, hit , Mathf.Infinity))
23.         {
24.        
25.             if (hit.collider.tag == "breakable")
26.

37.         }
38.         }

Hello,
if you want to save the coin int to playerPrefs insert following line at line 29 in your code above:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. PlayerPrefs.SetInt("Coin", coin);
3.  

(Where "Coin" is the Name of the Field, where the int (coin) will be saved.)

To load the int value in the next scene, you can add following line in Start() of a gameObject of the next scene:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  coin = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Coin");
3.  

But you can do another way, without playerPrefs, if you not really need to store the "coin" for use in another game-session.

You can make a gameObject named "Coin" and add following script to it:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. static var coin : int = 0;
4.  
5. function Awake () {
6.  
7. // prevent this gameObject (and it´s children) to be destroyed after loading another scene.
8. // This gameObject will be there, if the new scene is loaded and you can use values from previous scenes.
9.  
10.     DontDestroyOnLoad (transform.gameObject);
11. }
12. function Update () {
13.   // your code....
14. }
15.  

 

You're already using a static variable - that will do what you want, to keep the value of "coin" through to the next scene. (Though not between sessions) If that does not already work, then something else is going wrong.

 

Also, if you want to save the PlayerPrefs to save the coins permamently you must call PlayerPrefs.Save() to save them to disk.

 

okay i took your advice but have no errors but still there is a problem nothing will show as far as the string of the score is concerened any help.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. #pragma strict
4.  
5. static var coin : int = 0;
6. private var hit : RaycastHit;
7.  
8.  
9. function Start () {
10.  
11.      
12.  
13. }
14.  
15. function Update () {
16.  
17.     //touch input control
18.  
19.     var ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);
20.     if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
21.     {
22.         if (Physics.Raycast (ray, hit , Mathf.Infinity))
23.         {
24.        
25.             if (hit.collider.tag == "breakable")
26.            
27.             {
28.    
29.                 audio.Play();
30.                 coin+=1;
31.                   PlayerPrefs.SetInt ("Coin", coin);
32.            
33.         }
34.        
35.    
36.    
37.         }
38.         }
39.         }

and heres my next level Gameover

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. #pragma strict
4. public var textStyle: GUIStyle;
5. static var coin:int=0;;
6. function Start () {
7.  coin = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Coin");
8. }
9.  
10. function Update () {
11.  
12.  
13.  
14. GUI.Label( Rect(250,75,25,25), String.Format("{0}", coin),textStyle);
15.  
16.  
17.  
18. }

 

Use your gui code in OnGUI(), not in Update() and it works.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.    function OnGUI() {
3.         GUI.Label( Rect(250,75,25,25), String.Format("{0}", coin),textStyle);
4.     }
5.
