Please start your own topic.

However you're currently still New to Scratch so can't use cloud variables which only leaves the option of creating a save code which can be cut and saved for reentry later.

Stop correcting people GEEZ!!!!!

Creating a save code is super easy to do I would suggest doing that. The only down-side is that people can hack it, but if you want people to be able to use cheat codes they can just hack the load code.

Ok so i'm making a game where stick figures fight and I want there to be a button to save your progress in the game (without losing it). There are going to be some new fighters in the game as well and I want it to be able to save when you get coins, gems, and new fighters. How do I do it?

First, create your own new topic rather than necroposting. You're unlikely to get an answer to a question tucked away at the end of an old topic.

A scratcher called Bubbles166 used saving progress to his popular game called “Lucky's World”. You could ask him.

You have to change the variable to Cloud by right clicking on it and clicking edit. You should see a check box for a cloud variable and check that. You will also need an account with scratch. The cloud variable saves the data to your scratch name. Hope I could help. Good Luck and Happy Programming!

P.S You can make a block for saving the game so you can just call upon it when ever you want.

STEP 1 - Try adding a “Save” button, that adds all your info to a single item in a list.

for example, it would add: 52 (the amount of coins you have) 2 (the amount of pets you have) backdrop1 (the current backdrop)
the result of this added data would be: 52_2_backdrop1

STEP 2 - Tell the player to select and copy the item off the list (they can copy it by using “ctrl + c” or by right clicking)

STEP 3 - Add a “Load” button that pops up a question where the player can paste (ctrl + p) the save code.

STEP 4 - Once the player clicks “enter”, the code will be stored in the “answer” block (
(answer)
). you can use this answer with a decoding script that's reads, and applies all the info it was given to the game.

STEP 5 - Ask me for help if you get stuck

Please don't necropost. Reading through the topic would have shown you it is old.

You cannot save progress without using cloud data or save codes that the user cuts and pastes. Scratch does not remember data between reloads otherwise.

So basically you can do this:
when green flag clicked
forever
change [ I] by (50)
end
and then go:
when [ v] key pressed
set [ Code] to (pick random to ( I))
Done! Now just add the code to a list only accessible by a password or whatever and find a way to display it
