AssetBundle - cancelling a AssetBundleCreateRequest

Hi,

I'm creating a AssetBundleCreateRequest using AssetBundle.LoadFromMemoryAsync(path);

This is to load the music for the current part of the map. However, there is a chance that the user may go to another part of the map, or die, before the assetbundle is fully loaded. In which case, is there a way to cancel the load request? Or somehow just tell it to destroy itself when it's ready?

Or should I be keeping hold of the AssetBundleCreateRequest and then destroying it if it's no longer needed?

Thank you!

 

It does not seem to have anything to do that:

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AssetBundleCreateRequest.html

The parent object doesn't either:

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AsyncOperation.html

That said, I think if you just forget about it nothing bad will happen, and I imagine as soon as it is eligible for garbage collection, it's all gone. I seem to recall it only uses a little bit of actual RAM to load an AssetBundle. It is only once you start pulling things out of the AssetBundle that real memory starts being used.

 

Im trying to cancel the AssetBundle.LoadFileAsync request and thats working fine, but if i then try to load the same bundle it says its already loaded, but if I try to unload the bundle that loaded before cancelling the request it freezes unity
