Method UnloadSceneAsync

UnloadSceneAsync(SceneInstance, UnloadSceneOptions, Boolean)

Release scene

Declaration

public static AsyncOperationHandle<SceneInstance> UnloadSceneAsync(SceneInstance scene, UnloadSceneOptions unloadOptions, bool autoReleaseHandle = true)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
SceneInstance	scene	The SceneInstance to release.
UnloadSceneOptions	unloadOptions	Specify behavior for unloading embedded scene objecs
Boolean	autoReleaseHandle	If true, the handle will be released automatically when complete.

Returns

Type	Description
AsyncOperationHandle<SceneInstance>	The operation handle for the scene unload.

Remarks

UnloadSceneAsync releases a previously loaded scene. The scene must have been activated to be unloaded.

Passing UnloadSceneOptions.UnloadAllEmbeddedSceneObjects will unload assets embedded in the scene. The default is UploadSceneOptions.None which will only unload the scene's GameObjects.

Examples

        // The idea with this sample is to show a simple streaming world. This has 3 events
   // that work to load and unload scenes as required. Load would be triggered when
   // the player gets close to the entrypoint. Activate would be called by doing
   // something like "opening a door". And then unload could be called when the player
   // crosses the entrypoint again in the other direction.
   public class SceneGatewayManager {

       // the Addressables key for the scene to load
       [SerializeField]
       public string sceneKey;

       private AsyncOperationHandle<SceneInstance> sceneHandle;

       public void EnterBoundary()
       {
           if (sceneHandle.IsValid() && sceneHandle.IsDone)
           {
               // do not reload if they have already passed the load boundary
               return;
           }

           // load, but do not activate
           var activateOnLoad = false;

           // the scene is additive to keep our base scene and simply add a new area to it
           sceneHandle = Addressables.LoadSceneAsync(sceneKey, LoadSceneMode.Additive, activateOnLoad);
       }

       public IEnumerator<AsyncOperationHandle<SceneInstance>> EnterScene()
       {
           // at this point we have to finish waiting for the scene to load if it
           // hasn't already
           yield return sceneHandle;

           // this will activate the scene
           sceneHandle.Result.ActivateAsync();
       }

       // exist boundary takes an optional cleanup callback that could be
       // used to cleanup Assets after scene unload
       public void ExitBoundary(Action cleanupCallback = null)
       {

           if (!sceneHandle.Result.Scene.isLoaded)
           {
               // scene has not been activated and cannot be unloaded
               return;
           }
           var unloadHandle = Addressables.UnloadSceneAsync(sceneHandle, UnloadSceneOptions.None);
           unloadHandle.Completed += (s) =>
           {                    
               if (cleanupCallback != null)
               {
                   cleanupCallback();
               }
           };
       }


   }
