SceneManager is turning my brains inside out!

So I just made my first game and during the process I used SceneManager to reload a scene. BUT, it only worked when I put it into an object called "GameManager" and a script of the same name, it didn't when I just put it somewhere into the "Player" object's code. Why is that?

btw, when I was doing the thing with the player object, I got an error called something like "could not find source at assets/scripts/SceneManager.cs".

 

Maybe the scene isn't added to your build settings?

Without seeing your code, it's hard to say what you are doing.

 

What is 'GameManager', what is 'Player'?

These are not unity types, we did not write your code, you must define these things for us to understand them.

See my signature:

 

Damn, you got me... But, I did say what "Player" and "GameManager" are, they are object names.

 

Yes, posting the code you're actually using would make it much easier to try to help you. Best guess I have from what you've said so far is that the

GameManager

is loaded, so it can call

SceneManager

methods, but the

Player

is not loaded, so it can't.

 

Damn, you got me.

I have the answer to your problem sitting right here, I'm just not giving it to you because I want you to jump through hoops.

 

You've provided no useful context. Post some code or we're all just guessing whats wrong which is a waste of our time since you can easily provide code.
