hello,
I’m using the ogt level manager to unlock my levels, but it only unlocks one level at a time even when i play multiple levels. It also only happens when i relaunch the corona simulator and not when I go back to the main menu. I have every level in a different lua file.
Does anybody know what the problem can be?
Thanks!
What is the OGT level manager?
Are you saving your settings after completing a level?

Rob I didn’t answer this because it was a tool that I thought died a long time ago. I am not sure it even works with the latest version but I just searched and the old website is still up. Looks like it was last updated in 2015.
If this method is outdated then what is a better way to Kock and unlock levels when using multiple lua files for every level? Ive searched a lot for this bit couldnt find a good solution, thats Why i went with the ogt level manager
I don’t know if a packaged version exists. It shouldn’t be very hard to create one for your needs. I have one that I created when I was building out my internal library. I don’t have a level game at the moment and since I have not really worked with this portion of my library I don’t know how useful it would be, what bugs it might have and what problems you might encounter, but it might give you a head start.
This is what it looks like when I run my demo app and specify in the config that I want a level subpage:
And attached you will find the subPage library that produced the level portion of that image. Hope it gives you ideas.
Thanks a lot! I Will take a look at it
We did a tutorial once upon a time: https://coronalabs.com/blog/2014/08/12/tutorial-building-a-level-selection-scene/
Unfortunately, the complete downloadable code link no longer exists, but all of the code is in the tutorial.
It’s not a canned solution, but it should help you understand the process a bit.

PS - My early hunch is that if you build for device and try it there, things will work fine. Because of how it saves levels you’ve already played, there’s a work-around needed during development. If you go to the tutorial section where you downloaded it, look for the FAQ and Troubleshooting section and see if that answers your question.
