Hi,
onActivityResult is giving me major headaches. My little game has a title / menu screen. Upon clicking "new game" an Activity is launched which creates a SurfaceView for my game world.
When playing, the player can enter buildings in the game world. Upon entering a building I launch the activity for that particular building from my SurfaveView. Here is an example:
Intent storeIntent = new Intent(mMinerClass, GeneralStore.class);
storeIntent.putExtra("player", mPlayer.save());
((Activity) mContext).startActivityForResult(storeIntent, Miner.REQUEST_STORE);
mMinerClass is defined in the game Activity onCreate:
mMap .mMinerClass = Miner.this;
mMap is the SurfaceView. I'm passing a bundle containing the state of the player. In onActivityResult I grab the bundle returned by the store activity and update the player state.
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
Bundle player = intent.getExtras();
mMap.mSavedPlayer = player;
}
mSavedPlayer is later used to set the new player state.
All the above works generally
I can enter stores, buy stuff, leave and the player is updated correctly.
The problem manifests when I press the Home button (or someyimes back button) and onDestroy gets called. My onDestroy method does nothing besides call super.onDestroy();
After onDestroy() gets called onActivityResult no longer gets called.
So:
1) I play the game, everthing works great.
2) I press home and ondestroy is called
3) relaunch my game via launcher icon
4) Resume game. I can still enter and leave stores but onActivityResult is no longer called.
Here is some logcat output. I'm logging each time I enter a relevant method.
App start. Resuming a saved game

I'm posting this from my phone so excuse any dumb typos.
I appreciate any insight y'all can provide regarding this. Thanks!
