    Hi everyone, wondering if you could help me restart my game. I want the game to restart as it would if you pressed the play button again. I saw a couple examples online try SceneManager.LoadScene(), but when I tried this I got the error mentioned: "Destroying assets is not permitted to avoid data loss". My scene shows all the assets in the hierarchy, but my scripts don't run. I looked over the documentation for loadScene, but couldn't find any clues. I would appreciate your help!

    Are you trying to call Destroy() on prefabs rather than instantiated instances?
