When you save a game, also set a PlayerPrefs key to the slot # of the save. Example:
Code: Select all
SaveSystem.SaveToSlot(slotNumber);
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("Last Slot", slotNumber);
You can add a script with a Start() or OnEnable() method to the button that checks the PlayerPrefs value:
Code: Select all
bool hasLastSave = PlayerPrefs.HasKey("Last Slot") && SaveSystem.HasSavedGameInSlot(PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Last Slot"));
gameObject.SetActive(hasLastSave);

Yes. UNtick the DestructibleSaver's "Save Across Scene Changes" checkbox. It will only save the enemy's destruction status if the player saves and loads in the same scene. If the player moves to another scene and then returns, it will not use the DestructibleSaver's destruction status.

Okay thank you but that not what i mean.
What i try to implement is:
Enemy destruction Status should saved between scenes. Also wen i save and load.
I whant reset This Status in a specyfic case. In my case every time wen i save. Wen i save / on a specific trigger all enemys destroction status should be reseted. After This reset wen I loading a scene the emenys in This scene should spawn again

Hi,
If you want a trigger to reset saver data, you can delete the saver's data. For example:
Code: Select all
public List<Saver> saversToReset; // <- SET IN INSPECTOR
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag("Player"))
{
saversToReset.ForEach(saver => SaveSystem.currentSavedGameData.DeleteData(saver.key));
}
}

Yes, you could do this:
Code: Select all
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag("Player"))
{
foreach (DestructibleSaver saver in FindObjectsOfType<DestructibleSaver>())
{
SaveSystem.currentSavedGameData.DeleteData(saver.key));
}
}
}
[EDIT: Don't use this. See below for working solution.]
