How to share data across levels?

[Shifty Geezer]

If I have a player joining a setup screen and needing details on the current in-game state (drop-in coop), how do I call an RFC from the host in a level the new player isn't in yet? I've tried creating a universal GameManager object and class that doesn't get destroyed between levels (a GameObject with Don'tDestroyOnLoad and a static TNObject number) but that doesn't work.

Host > Load level "Intro", create server. Load level "Prepare", set up game. Load level "Level1", play.
Client > Load level "Intro", join server. Load level "Prepare", set up game. Needs info from host.

Hmm, maybe that works. RFCs aren't working, full stop.

You can be in several channels at once. One channel for the game, another for chat, a third one for settings if you want, etc.

TNManager.SetChannelData is the most robust way to associate permanent data with a specific channel that all players have access to as long as they are in that channel. No RFCs required.

TNManager.SetServerData is another option -- it's server-wide, so use it accordingly. Information about the entire world, list of player factions/guilds, etc would go there.
