    UnityEngine.XR.WSA.WorldManager.GetNativeISpatialCoordinateSystemPtr() is obsolete.

    What is the up to date alternative for this

    or where does WorldManager reside now?

    From a Microsoft dev on stack overflow:

    Support for built-in XR is removed in the latest Unity version. The WinRT API, such as Windows.Perception.Spatial.SpatialLocator is the alternative for it. For your case, you can use var spatialCoordinateSystem = SpatialLocator.GetDefault().CreateStationaryFrameOfReferenceAtCurrentLocation().CoordinateSystem; to create a coordinate system with the origin placed at the device's position as the app is launched.

    That's great, thanks! But how do I work with files that require the Windows namespace - it all just shows up as red in Rider or VS? How do you teach them what's going on in that namespace?

    Wrap it in
    ```
    #if ENABLE_WINMD_SUPPORT // Necessary since the Windows Types are only valid through WinMD projection.
    ...
    #end```
