Wait for SubScene to finish loading via LoadSceneAsync

Hey everyone,

so one annoying thing I run into while slowly switching more and more things to subscenes is that when I switch scenes via

UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager.LoadSceneAsync

is that it doesn't wait for subscenes to be loaded as well.

I.e. it looks pretty funky if you have all the environment in a subscene and some characters in the root scene, the characters will float in the void for a few milliseconds before the subscene is done loading.

I'm wondering what the recommended approach for this is beyond just waiting a few extra frames ?

I was imagining

LoadSceneAsync

would take some parameter so one can decide to have subscenes loaded synchronously as well before returning.

Regards,

How you solved it? I have seen in SceneSystem.cs that LoadSceneAsync returns "An entity representing the loading state of the scene". So we could write little simple async method that will return yield until we can ensure that scene is loaded. But what component is representing subscene loading state on that entity? I see no such component being added during method.

UPD: there is method SceneSystem.IsLoaded(Entity) which using mentioned entity to return loading state
