    If asset A references asset B, A is addressable but B is not, now B will be packed with A automatically.
    Sometimes developers make a mistake, they may pack B repeatedly into different bundles if it is referenced by different assets.
    Hope unity provides a manual mode option, so when I mark an asset addressable unity marks every assets it referenced addressable too, so I can notice them in the addressables window.

    It could be not very consistent, because you may change your prefab / scriptable later. The system provides "analyze" tool helps you discover and fix issue like that.

    e.g. put two prefabs reference same texture into two groups, which leads to two bundles both included the same texture.

    Run the analyze rules, report the dups for you.

    "Fix Select Rules", will solve the issue for you by creating a new group for shared assets.

    Run the analyze again, the issue is gone.

    Happy packing!

    Thanks! It's useful!

    If unity provides a manual mode option would be better, drag one asset to addressables window and multi-assets are added...
