Persist LoadLevel()'s "levelName" variable across scenes

[onpocket]

Hello!

Lately, i have been working on scene transitions in my project and i need to have a "main scene" that connects to a "loading scene" (for that using the LoadLevel() sequencer command), which by its turn (being a "lighter" scene) will start loading the "next level scene" with (UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager.LoadSceneAsync). To do this i need to be able to keep the LoadLevel()'s sequencer command "levelName" variable when i call this function from the "main scene", so that i can refer to it in my custom scene loader, which is essentially this line: "LoadSceneAsync(levelName)".

In my project i have one important limitation which is that i cannot rely on UI to fade in or fade out of scenes, i am saying this since i know there are some UI based alternatives to deal with scene transitions.

Hi,

You might want to use a Scene Transition Manager component as described here:


(At 4:40 if the video doesn't automatically jump there.)

The Scene Transition Manager can load a lightweight loading scene and then load the next level scene. You don't have to use on UI fades like the video does. Just specify the loading scene name.

That seems to have solved it, i do not know how i missed that...

Thank you so much!
