How to Send Variables Between Scenes in Unity

In this video we will be taking a look at how to send variables between scenes in Unity. Ultimately, sending variables between scenes isn't too different from sending variables between scripts in Unity.

Ultimately, what we want to do is make sure we have a centralized location where we can send those variables to temporarily stay while the new scene loads. Once that new scene loads, we can send variables between scenes by calling them back.

There are a few ways to accomplish sending variables between scenes. In this case, we'll be using a static string to transfer a difficulty setting. However, you can accomplish this same thing with enums or private non-static variables.

THANK YOU! Total beginner here and I was getting very frustrated. It felt like everything I tried to do ran into the issue of a script or scene not being able to access the information that it needed. This is going to make things so much easier.

Thanks for this, all of the other tutorials are the same copy paste setting of quality, resolution etc and don't handle making variables available for game objects, this is really useful.

Thanks for his video. Very simple and very helpful!

thanks bro, this was better and more performance than DontDestroyOnLoad methods.

And what about int, float and other because using static it will not allow you to change anymore so you need to manually assign it for example public static int coinsStatic;
public int coins;

void Start()
{
coinsStatic = coins;
}

But the problem is that how we can pass variables through scriptable object after using a singleton through other Mono behaviour scripts without attach them after scene change

used this tutorial to make a basic options screen for my game, thank you! it finally works.
however, i have one question: how can i make the variables carry over when the player goes back to the main menu? (check boxes and sliders have the same values as set by the player)

What's the use to inherit StateNameController from MonoBehaviour if you dont attach it to any gameObjects?

[hengpisey]

thanks for this. I'm just looking for how to get user input and display in next scene but i saw your video and give me some hint.

[NLPIsrael]

[qqq]

Great video man, glad I subbed. Can I ask, can this method also be applied to collected coins shown in a level and in the main menu?

[bigmancozmo]
