    I have some tests that are breaking because of the presence of an unexpected gameobject/component. It seems com.unity.visualscripting automatically creates a gameobject with the component even if you aren't using visual scripting. Is this the expected behavior?

    This is a normal behavior coming from Bolt.
    It will create a new scene called DontDestroyOnLoad and add the Variable Saver and [Debug Updater] GameObject. Even in an empty scene as long as Bolt or VisualScripting is installed in your project.

    I'm getting an error with the VariablesSaver game object even though I'm not using visual scripting.
    "UnityException: Trying to destroy invalid instance of 'Unity.VisualScripting.VariablesSaver' singleton."
    It's happening every time I stop playing my game.
    Do you know why?
    I'm just trying to set up a super simple platformer.

    You should be able to remove Visual Scripting package in the Package Manager if you're not using it.
