I want to pass variable values between scenes in unity, I've tried using static variables but it gives me an error when I try to edit it.

Use PlayerPrefs to store values. For example, If I wanted to a variable, I would go into the script then enter:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class SceneSwitch : MonoBehaviour {

//Declare variable
int var1 = 2f;

//Go into where you would move then use PlayerPrefs to store values
void SwitchScene() {
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("var", var1);
PlayerPrefs.Save();
}

//Load the values from another scene (put this into another script)
int LoadThing() {
return PlayerPrefs.GetInt("var");
}



}
  • I would not update the player prefs in any `Update` function. You can determine when a scene is loading/unloading. Setting and saving player prefs that frequently is not performant at all. – TEEBQNE Oct 14 '21 at 23:47
  • Correct, I'm just showing an example of how to use it, that's all. –  Oct 14 '21 at 23:51
