PlayerPrefs actions let you save and load variables in the game.
Unity natively supports Float, Int, and String values in PlayerPrefs. PlayMaker extends this so you can save any variable in a PlayerPref:
A couple of notes on Load/Save Variable:
- You cannot save references to Scene Objects in PlayerPrefs!
- Load/Save Variable actions are a little more expensive than native actions, so when saving Float, Int, or String variables use the Get/Set actions instead.
If you use PlayerPrefs a lot, check out the PlayerPref viewers in the Asset Store:
- Advanced PlayerPrefs Window: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#/content/7070
- Player Prefs Plugin: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#/content/6613
These viewers let you see exactly what is saved, making it easier to debug save/load features.
