Unity Ad only plays the first time

Alright, so here is what happens.

When the player finishes a match, they are sent to a scene that checks if there is an ad ready via the following script. If there is an available Ad it sends the player to the ads scene to watch the ad via the script after the following, otherwise the user is sent to the landing screen which redirects them to the main menu.

Theoretically the player should see an ad every time they finish a match unless one of the following is true: they have purchased a map, they are playing offline, or there is no available ad.

In situations where the player is both online and has not made a purchase, the ad will play fine after the first match, but no other ads will play after any other match unless the app is closed and reopened. The reason they don't play is because no further ads get readied. This is the problem. There should be an ad after every match.

I'm not sure if I am allowed to direct you to the game but, If you want to see this in action, the game is ZomPow2 and its on both the app store and google play.

Same problem, sorry for reviving this thread.

 

The problem we had has already been solved; it was that we were calling the "Load" function incorrectly at times when it didn't correspond.
