Unity 2021.2.b12+13: Script domain reload does not work

Hi,

After update to 2021.2.b12 and b13 I've found that no matter what setting is checked inside Editor Player Mode Settings, script domain is not reloaded.
For example all static instances in the script are not reset, even if Reload Domain is checked.

In Beta 11 it works.

Repro:

1. create new empty project with 2021.2.b13
2. create a new script, put a static variable inside it, assign for example value of 0, inside Awake() do a check if value is 1, if it is you know it failed, otherwise assign 1
   
3. run, stop, run
   
4. after second run notice that check failed, static variable is not reset even if Domain Reload is checked inside Editor settings

Best,
Stefan

 

Currently a known issue in the Alpha and they have mentioned here about back porting the fix to the beta.
