Save system?

Hi @Hazsha,

Can you be more specific about what kind of game state you want to save? Game Foundation offers two officially supported data layer types right now: Memory Data Layer, and Persistence Data Layer. Persistence Data Layer allows you to save Game Foundation instance data locally to the player's device. There is additionally a sample scene that can be downloaded from Package Manager demonstrating how to use a provided ChilliConnect Data Layer to save data to ChilliConnect's servers for remote persistence. The intention is to add an officially supported data layer for saving game state to a server, though it likely will take a different form from the ChilliConnect one in the sample scene.

I hope that helps!

 

Hi Carrmichaelll,

Game Foundation doesn't have a provider for Easy Save built in, but a custom provider could be developed and used in place of Game Foundation's built-in LocalPersistence class. You would create a new class that implements Game Foundation's IDataPersistence interface, which has just Save and Load methods. In those methods you would write the conversion between a GameFoundationData object and the format that Easy Save can work with. Then when you're initializing Game Foundation, it would look like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. myEasySaveDataLayer = new PersistenceDataLayer(new EasySavePersistence());
2. GameFoundationSdk.Initialize(myEasySaveDataLayer);

 

Hi @DenariiGames,

Thanks for your question. I think your issue might be that you are casting the result of JsonConvert.DeserializeObject as an Action<GameFoundationData> instead of GameFoundationData. You are also assigning the resulting Action to onLoadCompleted. Instead, you should invoke onLoadCompleted with the resulting GameFoundationData from JsonConvert.DeserializeObject. I’m not sure what JsonConvert is, but using JsonUtility, you should be able to do the following:

Code (CSharp):

1.     public class SampleDataLayer : IDataPersistence
2.     {
3.         public void Save(GameFoundationData content, Action onSaveCompleted = null, Action<Exception> onSaveFailed = null)
4.         {
5.             string jsonString = JsonUtility.ToJson(content);
6.             Debug.Log(jsonString);
7.         }
8.  
9.         public void Load(Action<GameFoundationData> onLoadCompleted = null, Action<Exception> onLoadFailed = null)
10.         {
11.             string emptyInvJson = "{\"inventoryManagerData\":{\"items\":[],\"itemLists\":[],\"itemMaps\":[]},\"walletData\":{\"balances\":[]},\"rewardManagerData\":{\"rewards\":[]},\"version\":0}";
12.             GameFoundationData deserializedData = JsonUtility.FromJson<GameFoundationData>(emptyInvJson);
13.             onLoadCompleted?.Invoke(deserializedData);
14.         }
15.     }

Hope that answers your question! Let us know if you have any other questions.
