  • [SOLVED]Totally Lost - How To Properly Load And Save Game's Data In Code Only(HTML5 And Android)?

Hi,

Development is going well, we have made great progress. With that said, our next programming task is rather difficult:

How do we properly load and save game's data on both HTML5 and Android? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Full project is on GitHub below: https://github.com/FallenAngelSoftware/Godot-SpaceSwap2

We read below: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/io/saving_games.html but am confused on how to implement using only script code...

Need help with loading/saving high scores table based on GameMode(0-5) Below is the code we have:

# "DataCore.gd"
extends Node


var HighScoreName = []
var HighScoreLevel = []
var HighScoreScore = []

const FILE_NAME = "user://game-data.json"


func ClearHighScores():
	for mode in range(0, 6):
		HighScoreName[mode][0] = "JeZxLee"
		HighScoreName[mode][1] = "Daotheman"
		HighScoreName[mode][2] = "theweirdn8"
		HighScoreName[mode][3] = "mattmatteh"
		HighScoreName[mode][4] = "Oshi Bobo"
		HighScoreName[mode][5] = "D.J. Fading Twilight"
		HighScoreName[mode][6] = "Godot Engine"
		HighScoreName[mode][7] = "You"
		HighScoreName[mode][8] = "Them"
		HighScoreName[mode][9] = "Us"

		HighScoreLevel[mode][7] = 3
		HighScoreLevel[mode][8] = 2
		HighScoreLevel[mode][9] = 1

		HighScoreScore[mode][0] = 10000
		HighScoreScore[mode][1] = 9000
		HighScoreScore[mode][2] = 8000
		HighScoreScore[mode][3] = 7000

	pass

Hi,

Is it possible to save/load an array? Please look at above script code. We need to save/load the following:

    for mode in range(0, 6):
        HighScoreName[mode][0] = "JeZxLee"
        HighScoreName[mode][1] = "Daotheman"
        HighScoreName[mode][2] = "theweirdn8"
        HighScoreName[mode][3] = "mattmatteh"
        HighScoreName[mode][4] = "Oshi Bobo"
        HighScoreName[mode][5] = "D.J. Fading Twilight"
        HighScoreName[mode][6] = "Godot Engine"
        HighScoreName[mode][7] = "You"
        HighScoreName[mode][8] = "Them"
        HighScoreName[mode][9] = "Us"
        HighScoreLevel[mode][0] = 10
        HighScoreLevel[mode][1] = 9
        HighScoreLevel[mode][2] = 8
        HighScoreLevel[mode][3] = 7
        HighScoreLevel[mode][4] = 6
        HighScoreLevel[mode][5] = 5
        HighScoreLevel[mode][6] = 4
        HighScoreLevel[mode][7] = 3
        HighScoreLevel[mode][8] = 2
        HighScoreLevel[mode][9] = 1
        HighScoreScore[mode][0] = 10000
        HighScoreScore[mode][1] = 9000
        HighScoreScore[mode][2] = 8000
        HighScoreScore[mode][3] = 7000
        HighScoreScore[mode][4] = 6000
        HighScoreScore[mode][5] = 5000
        HighScoreScore[mode][6] = 4000
        HighScoreScore[mode][7] = 3000
        HighScoreScore[mode][8] = 2000
        HighScoreScore[mode][9] = 1000

Let us know, thanks!

I think below works:

var HighScoreName = []
var HighScoreLevel = []
var HighScoreScore = []

const FILE_NAME = "user://game-data.json"

		HighScoreName[mode][3] = "mattmatteh"
		HighScoreName[mode][4] = "Oshi Bobo"
		HighScoreName[mode][5] = "D.J. Fading Twilight"
		HighScoreName[mode][6] = "Godot Engine"
		HighScoreName[mode][7] = "You"
		HighScoreName[mode][8] = "Them"
		HighScoreName[mode][9] = "Us"

		HighScoreLevel[mode][0] = 10
		HighScoreLevel[mode][1] = 9
		HighScoreLevel[mode][2] = 8
		HighScoreLevel[mode][3] = 7

		HighScoreLevel[mode][5] = 5
		HighScoreLevel[mode][6] = 4
		HighScoreLevel[mode][7] = 3

		HighScoreLevel[mode][9] = 1

		HighScoreScore[mode][0] = 10000
		HighScoreScore[mode][1] = 9000

I'm looking for an answer too, there is a lack of acknowledgement. As of the time being, save and load for html and android is little to no existence.
