Resolution Note (2021.2.X):
The user calls LoadScene from Awake and this generates infinite loop.
private void Awake()
{
if (Instance != null)
{
Destroy(gameObject);
}
else
{
Instance = this;
DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
RestartGame();
}
}
...
private void RestartGame()
{
Lives = 3;
coins = 0;
SceneManager.LoadScene(0);
if (OnLivesChanged != null)
OnLivesChanged(Lives);
if (OnCoinsChanged != null)
OnCoinsChanged(coins);
}
When "[GameManager]" is a child of any other object DontDestroyOnLoad doesn't work if its parent chain is not marked as DontDestroyOnLoad
I will update the documentation for DontDestroyOnLoad to reflect this requirement.
