Question about Resources.Load

Does Resources.Load load all dependencies of an asset? For example, if I use Resources.Load to load a prefab which references some meshes, textures, particle systems etc, do these assets will be loaded simultaneously?

 

If you only have one set of textures everything should load up including the children of the gameobject you are loading from the resources folder, however when you need to change the texture during runtime and load that in you'll have to use seperate code so the game engine knows that a change has been made.

Just make sure that you've got everything you need in the resources folder as a prefab and it should all work. However if you're studying saving and loading something I learned was that if even the slightest thing changes in a gameobject you have to make sure that the game engine knows about it through code but if you're just purely loading up some prefabs from the resources folder you shouldn't have to worry too much about that.

 

Huh?

Yes, the prefab is loaded in its entirety.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. Huh?

Well that is if you're trying to get the game to remember everything about a gameobject in runtime just a simple resource.load is different though obviously, sorry should have been clearer.
