How to instantiate objects upon scene load?
Hello, I have one GameObject that basically holds everything the game needs to run in a scene. This includes:
Scripts
Camera
UI
I've gotten the mod system to work perfectly, but there's one issue that is a bit confusing. When a person creates a map mod, I don't want them to have access to this GameObject, I don't even want to deal with it when I'm making a new map.
So I need a way to Instantiate this when the Scene loads. Is this possible? :)
Yes, this is quite easy to do. The best approach would be to have a static class (called SceneManager or something similar) which instantiates the prefab upon loading a new scene.
The script would look something like:
public static class SceneManager {
private static bool initialized = false;
// ensure you call this method from a script in your first loaded scene
public static void Initialize () {
if (initialized == false) {
initialized = true;
// adds this to the 'activeSceneChanged' callbacks if not already initialized.
UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager.activeSceneChanged += OnSceneWasLoaded;
}
}
private static void OnSceneWasLoaded (UnityEngine.SceneManagement.Scene from, UnityEngine.SceneManagement.Scene to) {
// do instantiate work here
}
}
