Save & Load System in Unity - Bug Fixes, Scriptable Objects, Deleting Data, Backup Files, and More
Uploaded by Trever MockShare: Twitter Facebook
This video wraps up the previous Save & Load System tutorials I've done by fixing some bugs, answering some frequently asked questions, and adding some extra polish and reliability to the system.
Topics include various bug fixes and improvements from the previous tutorials, saving data from scriptable objects, deleting profile data, adding a confirmation prompt, backing up save files, and more!
The video is separated by timestamps where each timestamp is mostly independent from the others in the video. So feel free to skip passed timestamps that don't interest you.
Thank you for watching and I hope you found something useful out of this video! ?
