(Failed To Unpersist: Monobehaviour ID: number FileID: number) and Destroying My Work!?!
Hello
 I need an answer
 Occasionally I get an error saying: 
 failed To Unpersist: Monobehaviour ID: number FileID: number
 and the infuriating part:
 The Gameobject i presume to be related to it gets deleted!!!
 This is setting me back and soon it might delete something I spent weeks on!
 I have no idea what causes this. The only thing I know is that Prefabs aren't affected 
 I would like an informative reply please, Thanks.
I've been having this issue a lot lately as well. It's pretty frustrating and scary!

It turn's out that selecting before going into play mode is a one-way sentence to the Trash.
 That's annoying but I can also unload and reload the scene of the removed game object to recover it.
 I don't know why this works but that okay with me. 
Damn, I've got the exact same thing happening! DId you work out a way round this or what exactly causes it?
Nice trick. It seems like deselecting everything in the scene before entering play mode prevents this from happening.
