Resolved How I can translate scene index to a different scene

Hello all!
Maybe my question is stupid but I can't find information about this.

I have a problem with my small game. In my game, I have some levels(Scenes) and if Player losing some level, load a scene(RestartScene) which contains a menu with a resume button. My plan Player clicks on button and load level which he lose. But I don't understand how I can translate lose level index to "RestartScene".

 

Store the current level somewhere.

 

@pareylook I would recommend getting away from using the scene index number, and here's why:

if anyone, you or any other team member you might work with, inserts or removes, or moved around a scene in the future, all scenes below that change their index, and there is no trivial easy way to even detect it happened.

Just use the string. It's 2020 already...

Personally I have a static class full of const strings:

Code (csharp):

1. public static class SceneNames
2. {
3.   public const string s_MainMenu = "mainmenu";
4.   public const string s_Options = "options";
5. }

That keeps me from typing something like

mainmemu

and wondering why my game fails.

 

Really makes you wonder why Scenes aren't able to be referenced seamlessly like other Unity objects.

 

This ^ ^ ^ They share so much in common with Prefabs.

Loading a scene additively is like loading a prefab and having to wait 1 frame to use it.

Partial scenes additively loaded are like the best thing EVER...
