    I've tried everything I can think of related to GeoFence. I've simplified my scene down to nothing but a plane visualizer and a plane proxy which works fine. When I add a GeoFence condition with a nearby location I just get my visualizer and no proxy popping up. What am I doing wrong? If there's documentation I'm missing please link me to it, as there's nothing that helps. I've even read the 1 forum question that was actually answered (kind of) Question - Geo Fencing not working on physical device - Unity Forum and it doesn't help at all. I can't even get it working in simulation view, so clearly I'm missing something, but there's no documentation for me to check. (at least I haven't found anything.)

    I get the location data permission request when I start the app, so at least I know that's working.

    If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it.
    Thank you

    Try making the extents larger. 0.0001 is very small (and a bad default). If that doesn't work let us know and we can dig deeper.

    Thank you! That did work. A very simple solution I should have tried. I just assumed defaults worked out of the box, and tweaking is for granular control. Default is actually smaller at 0.00001.
