Hey Tony, got it to work by using the script methods! Confirmed that it is saving them to the slots, I also have data from other scripts outside of the Dialogue Manager that I would like to save to the same slot. Is there a direct spot where I can store those variables as well?

If you play either of the scene above individually, directly in play mode, they'll work fine. However, say you start in Scene A. Then you move to Scene B. Now these GameObjects exist: Active Runtime Scene(s): Dialogue Manager A Button B: points to Dialogue Manager B Since Button B was configured to...

Hey Tony, pretty much got this working now, only one last hangup. I have the Dialogue Manager as a prefab now that survives scene changes, but when the scenes change it looks like my buttons lose reference to the scripts on the Dialogue Manager. I have the prefab in all scenes, and it has the same s...

Awesome, just put it together on how it could work.

Thanks Tony, I'll probably be back with more questions eventually!

Yes, although I recommend writing some kind of dedicated MusicManager script. You can put this script on the Dialogue Manager or some other GameObject that survives scene changes. It could have methods such as PlayMainMenuTheme(), PlayIntroTheme(), PlayDefaultGameplayTheme(), etc. Then you can writ...

Hi, Putting a Dialogue Manager in each scene is optional. It makes it easier to playtest since you can enter play mode directly from any scene. I recommend making a single Dialogue Manager prefab (for example, a prefab variant of the base Dialogue Manager prefab) and dropping that prefab into your ...

Thanks Tony, I think I'll do that. I was looking over the DemoScenes, so I should still have a dialogue manager in each scene right? Then it will replace them as you said before. Should I also have a separate canvas for my UI in that case? Right now, I had it all under the Dialogue Manager Canvas so...

Hi, DemoScene1 and DemoScene2 demonstrate saving data across scene changes. At runtime, the Dialogue Manager MainMenuScene will survive scene changes and replace the Dialogue Manager that was in MainScene at design time. (Unless you've intentionally unticked its Don't Destroy On Load and Only Allow...

Hey Tony, hope you're having a good day, I was having some issues setting up the Save system to work between scenes. I was wondering if you had an example project like you do for a couple other systems? The setup I have now is that I have a dialogue manager in each scene. I'm trying to set up a &quo...

Yes. Switch to TextMesh Pro (see TextMesh Pro Support) and use <sprite> tags.

Perfect, thanks a bunch Tony!
