    Is it possible to load an addressable asset by passing a list of AssetLabelReferences?

    This is the line i'm having issues with:
    Code (CSharp):
    1. AsyncOperationHandle<IList<GameObject>> LoadingHandler = Addressables.LoadAssetsAsync<GameObject>(Label, null);

    I've got addressables loading via one assetlabelreference perfectly for what I want.
    Now, however i'd like to extend the system to allow selection of objects that only have all the labels I'm searching for.

    Instead of just 1 label I'd like to provide a list, I was hoping that this would be a built in feature as I think you can provide a list of keys that can return a list of assets?

    Everything I've tried so far hasn't worked, I tried my own repeating addressable load, sorting through which assets matched which labels but it's very slow and not very efficient.

    Can anyone suggest any solutions here?


    Cheers, Joe

    Hey @JoWi_Uniform,

    Unfortunately this isn't something currently supported. It has come up a few times though so it's definitely something I'm sure we'll get added in before too long. That said, I can't promise anything even resembling the idea of a release date for something like this.

    If anyone has implemented a solution I hope they'll post it here for you to use.
