2,610 PointsInteractive Story Lesson: how to save your game progress?
I finished this lesson a few days ago and decided to mess around with the project a bit. I added pages, texts, more buttons, etc just to get really familiar with the code but ran into a problem. How do I save my progress in the app? I figured out how to use onResume to recall the current view I was in if I come out of the project BUT, if I force close it / turn off the phone etc, I have to start all over again. How do I save my progress?
PS. I am assuming this might be covered in future projects/lessons and if that is the case, where?
(I googled several things that might do it but have no idea what applies to this specific type of app.)
