"New Game" - "Delete All Data" (Playmaker)

Hi Joel.
Great asset! Thank you for making and supporting it.

When I click on "Clear Persistent Data Path" on Unity editor, as expected everything is reset and the game starts with no saved data.

How would you approach that in-game as a "Clear Persistent Data Path" action does not exist.

I'm using Playmaker.
So, say that you click an UI element, what should the following actions be?
Delete Directory and reload the scene for example?

Sorry, I'm just missing the concept. Any info will be highly appreciated.

(I'm not using or planning to use auto save)

Hi there,

The best way to do this is to use the ES3 Delete File action to delete your save data.

All the best,
Joel

I'm reworking an old project (Unity 5.6.3) with Playmaker (1.8.4) and using Easy Save 2. It was working fine the last time I opened it, but now I'm seeing a missing action "DeleteDataPool." Any idea what could have happened and how I can fix it? Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

Easy Save has never had a DeleteDataPool action, so this issue would be unrelated to us.

All the best,
Joel

Sorry about that. Always difficult to remember everything when revisiting a project after years. Know that is helpful.
