Need help with continuing method..

[Brandeno]

Hi Everyone!

I’m having a little trouble

Using PlayMaker I'm invoking method which calls a coroutine when I hit a button. Once the coroutine is called a timer appears and counts down.

Now My question is; when I run the method and save the game if the timer is still running it when I load back up it doesn’t save the state and just ends the coroutine. Is it possible to continue where the coroutine left off and have the timer keep on going when the game is loaded back up?

The same thing happens when I try run the method through an OnClick() without playmaker. I'm so lost

Thanks!

Hi there,

It wouldn't be possible to save the state of a coroutine because it's not serialisable at runtime. Instead you would need to save the elapsed time of the timer and then use this to restart the coroutine at that specific time.

All the best,
Joel
