How to change a scene from a button
It sounds simple, but ever since Unity 5 rolled in everyone's been giving me false information about
Application.LoadLevel WHICH IS OUTDATED
And now I'm stuck here with a half developed game, frusterated out of my mind thinking about scrapping this entire game because it's entirely based on buttons!
Please.. All I want is some clarification. All the tutorials are outdated. All the forums are too. I just want to change scenes on a button tap. All I require out of the veterans of Unity.
Alright, I've figured this out. Because I'm not very well versed in program$$anonymous$$g, I didn't know that the "Class" had to be the same name as my script. Or something like that. Because as soon as I changed the class name to my script's name.
Thanks for all who responded to this thread and helping this cat out.
What errors are you getting and your current implementation? From what I found across the interwebs is making sure you add the 'using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;' for Unity 5+. You can call the scene by name in the first example, or just increment your current buildindex if you have your flow sequentially.
Examples pulled from http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/unityengine-application-loadlevel-int-is-obsolete.372915/
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
using System.Collections;
public void GoToSceneThree()
{
SceneManager.LoadScene("scene_three");
}
public void NextScene()
{
Scenemanager.GetActiveScene ().buildIndex + 1;
}
@Pillowfighter9 Look at the documentation: http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Application.LoadLevel.html
You can see on the top of the page information that you are looking for: "Use SceneManager.LoadScene"
I hope that I helped :)
You have to use https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/SceneManagement.SceneManager.html now
Something like this:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
public class YourClass: MonoBehaviour{
public void OnButtonClick(){
SceneManager.LoadScene("scenename");
}
}
Yeah, it doesn't work. I've tried everything in my own knowledge and the knowledge of the community.
I've attached this script as it's own component and as a trigger with the "Button Press" window in the default button's properties.
No matter what I do, I cannot work this out.
I think I found what might be your issue.
When I got home tonight I spun up 2 quick scenes and tried out what I posted above. I named them 'first' and 'second'. Now I didn't use a button, just a keydown, but it should still work with your button.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.Scene$$anonymous$$anagement;
public class controlme : $$anonymous$$onoBehaviour {
void Update () {
if (Input.Get$$anonymous$$eyDown($$anonymous$$eyCode.R))
{
Scene$$anonymous$$anager.LoadScene("second");
}
}
}
I put a red cube in my second scene so I knew I had moved to the next one. Just having that in my code it wasn't working. I checked console and saw:
Scene 'second' (-1) couldn't be loaded because it has not been added to the build settings or the AssetBundle has not been loaded.
To add a scene to the build settings use the menu File->Build Settings...
UnityEngine.Scene$$anonymous$$anagement.Scene$$anonymous$$anager:LoadScene(String)
controlme:Update() (at Assets/controlme.cs:17)
So I opened up my build settings, added my two scenes to the build settings and then closed the build settings window and tried again, voila! worked like a charm. $$anonymous$$ake sure the scene you are moving to and from are added to the scenes that will be built when you choose to do so ( you don't have to build, just add them and close the build window)
