Instantiate Unity

Initiative  While developing Treva's Adventure I had to figure out a way to handle multiple music tracks and sound effects in a clean manner or suffer horribly.  What was going to help me achieve a simple solution was taking all the different sounds and centralizing them in a single class in order to black box them.   Any other code trying to play a sound wouldn't even know the sound file's name.   All code trying to play a music track would reference a enum that defines all the track names. Defining The Class Creating The Enum When I first started defining types in my enumeration,  I was naming the types to be exactly like the file name.  For a scary sound effect I had found a file named "ghost breath".  So around my code would be scattered lines like SoundManager.Play(SoundEffectType.GhostBreath);  This was fine until I found a sound that better fit the situation it was being used in,  and decided to use "ghost breath" for a...

So if you want to keep an object or script that keeps up variables (or for any other reason) when you go from scene to scene, you need to attach a don't destroy on load static function, which goes something like this: function Awake () {     DontDestroyOnLoad (transform.gameObject); } The Awake function is call only once, when all the objects in the scene have been created. Read more about it here . DontDestroyOnLoad  has what ever is in the ( ) to not be destroyed when creating a new scene. (transform.gameObject) is what will not be destroyed when the new scene is loaded, in this case, it will be the game object and all it's children the script is attached to.
