i have created a simple slime game to demonstrate how to use the Save plugin, tho only 1 level but expandable. here’s the code with SaveSystem implemented:
on main_script.gd:
extends Node2D
@onready var save_slime_button:Button=$SaveSlimeButton
const A_SLIME=preload("res://slime.tscn")
var slime_node_ref:Array=[]
var is_spawning:bool=false
var current_level_id:int=1
func _ready():
print(SaveSystem.current_state_dictionary)
randomize()
spawn_slimes()
func spawn_slimes():
if is_spawning:
return
is_spawning=true
for slime in slime_node_ref:
remove_child(slime)
slime.queue_free()
slime_node_ref.clear()
if SaveSystem.has(str(current_level_id)):
generate_slime()
else:
SaveSystem.set_var(str(current_level_id),[])
print(SaveSystem.current_state_dictionary)
generate_default_slimes(3)
is_spawning=false
func generate_slime():
var slimes=SaveSystem.get_var(str(current_level_id),[])
for i in range(slimes.size()):
create_slime(slimes[i].duplicate(true))
func generate_default_slimes(count:int):
for i in range(count):
var display_size=DisplayServer.screen_get_size()
var data={"health":10,"max_health":10,"x":0,"y":0}
data["x"]=randi()%display_size.x/2
data["y"]=randi()%display_size.y/2
create_slime(data)
save_current_slime_state()
func create_slime(data):
var slime=A_SLIME.instantiate()
slime.global_position=Vector2(data["x"],data["y"])
add_child(slime)
slime.set_health_display(data["health"],data["max_health"])
slime_node_ref.append(slime)
func save_current_slime_state():
var temp_array:Array=[]
for slime in slime_node_ref:
var temp_data
temp_data={"health":slime.health,"max_health":slime.max_health,"x":slime.global_position.x,"y":slime.global_position.y}
print(temp_data)
temp_array.append(temp_data)
SaveSystem.set_var(str(current_level_id),temp_array)
SaveSystem.save()
func _on_save_slime_button_pressed():
save_current_slime_state()
func _on_reload_slime_button_pressed():
spawn_slimes()
func _on_delete_save_data_button_pressed():
SaveSystem.delete_all()
SaveSystem.save()
on the slime script (which will be instantiated and add child to this main scene):
extends Sprite2D
@onready var health_label=$Health
var health
var max_health
var custom_id
const MOVEMENT_SPEED:float=10
const R_MOVE:Array=[-MOVEMENT_SPEED,0,0,0,0,0,MOVEMENT_SPEED]
func _physics_process(delta):
random_move()
func random_move():
global_position+=Vector2(R_MOVE.pick_random(),R_MOVE.pick_random())
func set_health_display(_health,_max_health=10):
health=_health
max_health=_max_health
health_label.text=str(health)+"/"+str(max_health)
func _on_button_pressed():
set_health_display(health-1)
Here is the GIF:
Hopefully this give you an insight on how to save and load (at the very least) with this plugin
