Setting a quest field in code doesn't save

[bluebuttongames]

Hi guys,

So I have this somewhere in my code:

questName (string)
dayToSetCompleted (int)

DialogueLua.SetQuestField(questName,"DayCompleted",dayToSetCompleted);

That get's called, and locally when I report that value it returns correctly, however that doesn't seem to save like variables do. When I change scene that field hasn't been saved.

I'm saving on level exit like this:

string dbData = PersistentDataManager.GetSaveData();
PlayerPrefs.SetString(currentDBSaveSlot,dbData);

Where am I going wrong here?

Thanks,

BB

Hi,

To minimize saved game sizes, by default only quest states and quest entry states are saved. To save other fields, inspect the Dialogue Manager and tick Persistent Data Settings > Include All Item & Quest Data. Alternatively, you can assign a delegate method to PersistentDataManager.GetCustomSaveData(), but that's a more involved process.
