    Hi,

    When using a sprite from a sprite sheet it works as long as I keep the project opened. But as soon as I change project or just reopen the current one, the sprite is missing from the Sprite Renderer component. It only happens with sprite sheets. Single sprites are remembered. Is this a known issue, or is there just something I'm not understanding?

    We have a recorded bug about this but it seemed like a very specific problem. What Unity and Tiny package versions are you using?

    I have a gut feeling it is related to where this file is stored.

    I was using 2019.1.0f2 and Tiny 0.14.5.
    I also tested with the latest Unity version 2019.1.1f1 with the same result.
    I've created projects both in C: and a different drive. No spaces in the path or project names.

    1. Created a new project.
    2. Downgraded TextMesh Pro to 1.3.0.
    3. Installed Tiny Mode 0.14.5.
    4. Created a new Tiny project (no spaces).
    5. Created a folder called Textures, dropped a png with 5 32x32 sprites and set it up as shown in the image above.
    6. Dragged the first sprite of the sprite sheet into the default entity group "NewEntityGroup" in the hierarchy.
    7. The sprite is rendered as expected.
    8. Reloaded the Tiny project.
    9. The sprite field of the Sprite Renderer component is now empty.

    Is there a save step between steps 7 and 8?

    Yeah, that works. With 2018.3.14, the sprite is still there after reloading.

    Thanks for the information @Frickinlaser. Unfortunately, Tiny does not support 2019 officially right now so I recommend using Tiny in 2018.3.

    No problem! I'll work with 2018.3 in the meantime. Really enjoying Tiny Mode so far!
