Question How to store changes in AudioSettings from Editor Script

Hi There

I want to change the Spatializer Plugin from a Editor Script and have this Code that works:

Code (CSharp):

1. public static void SetSpatializerPlugin()
2. {
3.     if (SpatializerIsAvailable())
4.     {
5.         AudioSettings.SetSpatializerPluginName("My_Spatializer");
6.         Debug.Log($"Set Spatializer Plugin to {AudioSettings.GetSpatializerPluginName()}");
7.     }
8.     else
9.     {
10.         Debug.LogError($"Spatializer Plugin could not be set to {AudioSettings.GetSpatializerPluginName()}! It was not found in the Project.");
11.     }
12. }

This works fine, however the change is not stored to disk and will be gone when i start the project the next time.
The ususal solution to this like marking the Component as Dirty with EditorUtility.SetDirty() or using Undo.RecordObject() do not work, since there is no UnityEngine.Object that can be passed to these methods.

How am i supposed to make my change persist over a Restart?

Thanks for your help!

 

I'm thinking it might be this???

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AssetDatabase.SaveAssets.html

Read some of those other links too... I'm just guessing here, haven't played with this in a while.

 

Unfortunatly this also does not work. I assume it is because the AudioSettings are never dirtied.

However i found this workaround: https://forum.unity.com/threads/changing-audio-settings-through-code.480828/#post-3134875

It works, but is super ugly. If this really is necessary, why does AudioSettings.SetSpatializerPluginName even exists?
