Unity Crashes on Run

[RishMa_STV_GameDev]

When I added this script;

 void Awake()
    {
        SceneManager.LoadScene(0);
    }

every time I run the game, Unity fails to respond and crashes. Others have also had this issue.

Unity crashes on play

In the SavingWrapper.cs script the line: StartCoroutine(LoadLastScene()); in the awake function keeps crashing Unity whenever I hit play. Anyone have any idea why? I assumed it was because I didn’t have a default save file yet, but even after commenting the line out, playing the game, and making a save, I still get crashes after uncommenting the line in Awake.

Hi,

Did you see the solution in the other thread? In case you missed it, I’m copying and pasting in here.

Figured out my problem, my scenes still had the PersistedObjects prefab so when the scene loaded it automatically called LoadLastScene which caused the loop. Deleted the prefab from my scenes and everything loaded correctly.

I don’t know in which course and lecture you are but check if there is a game object which calls SceneManager.LoadScene(0); in the scene at buildIndex 0. See the scenes list in File > Build Settings.

I didn’t really understand what the solution was in that thread, but the index in build settings did match the code.

In that case, you have an endless loop. If there is an object in scene 0 with an Awake method which loads scene 0, scene 0 gets loaded, said Awake method gets called, scene 0 gets loaded again, and so on. I don’t know in which course and lecture you are but if you followed one of our video, there is very likely a difference between your project and the instructor’s.

Ohh, okay. So do you think there is a fix because I need the Awake() method in both scripts.

The problem is not the Awake method but the fact that scene 0 gets loaded in scene 0 without any restriction. To solve the problem, you will have to rethink your concept. In what case is scene 0 supposed to load scene 0? (Always = endless loop.)
