When Android is selected as the target platform, Compute Shaders cannot be used in editor on Windows
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project
2. Switch platform to Android
3. Open any scene in the project
4. Play the scene
5. Observe the error in Console Window
Note:
Also, not the error when using the Dispatch method
Platform does not support compute shaders
UnityEngine.ComputeShader:Dispatch(Int32, Int32, Int32, Int32)
ParticlesArea:Update() (at Assets/Cocuy/Scripts/ParticlesArea.cs:212)
Workaround:
Go to Edit -> Graphics Emulation and select "No emulation"
Actual results: Error is thrown
Expected results: Graphics emulator should run the compute shaders normally
Reproduced with: 5.5.4p4, 5.6.2p2, 2017.1.0f3, 2017.2.0b3

not resolved on Unity 2018.2.18f1. Still does not work in editor, while it runs fine on android device. Is this bug incorrectly marked as 'resolved', but not actually resolved? (was not able to select OpenGL ES 3.1 in emulation, nor Vulkan, while this is possible in player settings... confusing! Nothing about this in docs, as far as I can read under Compute Shaders, or what did I miss?)
