PrefabUtility.InstantiatePrefab not preserving prefab connection
This simple Editor tool to instantiate Prefabs is doing so, but the instantiated objects are missing their connection to the prefab (aka not blue, updating prefab doesn't show changes in copies).
[ExecuteInEditMode]
public class FixMazePrefabConnections : MonoBehaviour
{
foreach (GameObject maze in mazes)
{
// Instantiate blank maze
GameObject newMaze = PrefabUtility.InstantiatePrefab(blankMazePrefab) as GameObject;
}
}
I've tried suggestions like using:
EditorSceneManager.MarkSceneDirty(EditorSceneManager.GetActiveScene());
and:
Undo.RecordObject(newMaze, "");
to no avail. Any clue what I can try to preserve the connections?
