Just say, refactor this code.

Make it clean

Understandable

Easily changeable

In short, according to the SOLID principle.

It seems like adding the Coroutine made it worst, as prior to adding it, the Mainscene would unload if the tracked image for the CharacterTour scene was detected (it only did not work the other way around), but now either way doesn’t work

Doing this requires some code knowledge and Unity knowledge.

Maybe you changed something or implemented it wrong.

When I test it the same way, it works fine.

I don’t know your project.

Do you or someone at Convai have samples where the ar scene is an additive scene?

Did ChatGPT write this code or did you write it?

How can we provide a sample of this?

This is a normal Unity scene. It only requires a coroutine and the UnloadSceneASYNC method.

I wrote it

Well, for whatever reason, the Convai AR scene doesn’t unload properly, but all my other scenes unload fine

For future reference for anyone also encountering the same issue, I figured it out. In the CoRoutine, before unloading the additive scene, I made sure to use Game.Object.FindGameObejctsWithTag
(“Tag the NPC”) to explicitly destroy the NPC and any related game objects before unloading the scene that it is in.

Example:
GameObject objectsToDestroy = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag(“CharacterTour”);
foreach (GameObject obj in objectsToDestroy)
{
Debug.Log(“Destroying object tagged CharacterTour”);
Destroy(obj);
Debug.Log(“Destroyed an object tagged CharacterTour.”);
yield return new WaitUntil(() => obj == null);
}
