A ghost Game Window and multiple errors appear in the Editor when a Render Texture used by a Camera's "Target Texture" property is deleted
How to reproduce:
1. Create and open a new project
2. In the Project tab, in the “Assets” folder, create a new Render Texture (Right-click → Create → Render Texture)
3. In the Hierarchy tab, select the “Camera” GameObject
4. In the Inspector tab, under the “Camera” component, assign the created Render Texture to the “Target Texture” (or “Output Texture”) property
5. In the Project tab, delete the Render Texture
6. Move the mouse around the Editor, hovering over Game window
7. Observe the Console tab and Editor
Actual result: A ghost window and multiple errors appear
Expected result: A ghost window and multiple errors do not appear
Reproducible with: 2023.1.0a5, 6000.0.72f1, 6000.3.12f1, 6000.4.1f1, 6000.5.0b2, 6000.6.0a2
Reproducible on: macOS 15.3.2 (24D81) (M1 Max)
Not reproducible on: No other environment tested
Notes:
- After following the reproduction steps, deleting the “Camera” GameObject triggers multiple “NullReferenceException” errors
- The reproduction results are inconsistent: some versions produces only errors, whereas others only trigger the ghost window
- In the 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6 streams, both the ghost window and the errors appear simultaneously only if the scene contains two Camera GameObjects
