Prevent DoNotDestroy

[cheezorg]

Quick question on DoNotDestroy.

Ticking/Unticking "DontDestoryOnLoad" in the Dialogue Manager Other Settings doesn't seem to do anything. Whether it's checked or uncheck, as soon as I hit Play in the Editor, the Dialogue Manager is placed into a new DoNotDestroy scene. How can I prevent this from happening?

Thanks!

Hi,

The Input Device Manager component also has a similar checkbox, Singleton, that acts as a combined checkbox for Dont Destroy On Load and Allow Only One Instance. If it's ticked, untick it.

If your Dialogue Manager has a Save System component, move it to a separate GameObject because it, too, wants to be DontDestroyOnLoad so it can handle scene transitions and scene loading.

Thanks! That did it.

Great! In the next release, if Dont Destroy On Load is unticked, the Dialogue Manager will log a warning if it also has an Input Device Manager whose Singleton checkbox is ticked.
