I have spent a day working on a replacement for playerprefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Playerprefs make is very easy to store data persistently, but they store data in the systems registry, not in the game folder, which would cause problems if a game project needed to be moved from one drive to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Playerprefs are also not really designed to store large amounts of data, and they are stored in plaintext, so they can be easily edited by players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have implemented simple JSON saving and loading now, with similiar functionality to player prefs. I have also added simple encryption to the JSON files so that they cannot be easily modified by players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
