Saving game state in greenfoot?
The easiest way to 'hold' the game while processing shop action is to create a new world for the shop. You will need to call the new world with a reference to the old world so you can return to it. Check out my Crayon Babies scenario which demonstrates changing worlds.
Yes, I know how to change worlds, but when either reloading the page, or starting the game again, and then all is gone. I want to save what items you have bought, and to save which levels you have done, so you dont need to start over again.
you could just save all your variables/data to a file and then re read them with some encryption to avoid them haxors
Everything will be saved in the variable that holds the original world while the shop is up.
In the original world class when going to the shop world
In the ShopWorld world
Everything will be just as it was when you called ShopWorld.
Greenfoot.setWorld(new ShopWorld(this));
// instance variable
private World mainWorld;
// constructor
public ShopWorld(World world)
{
super(600, 400, 1); // whatever
mainWorld = world;
// other code
}
// when conditions are right to return
Greenfoot.setWorld(mainWorld);
