Limitations and Workarounds:
While Fast Script Reload offers unparalleled speed and convenience, it's essential to keep a few limitations in mind:
- Generics: Generic methods and classes won't be hot-reloaded. Consider moving code to non-generic classes/methods to work around this limitation.
- New Methods: Hot-reload for new methods only works with private methods (those called by changed code).
- Adding New Fields: You can add new fields and tweak them in the editor, but there are minor limitations regarding their usage in runtime and build/device propagation.
- Nested Classes/Structs: Extensive use of nested classes/structs may result in more compilation errors.
- Mac Silicon Editor Version: Mac Silicon Editor version is not supported; only Intel Editor versions are compatible.
- IL2CPP Support: IL2CPP builds are not supported; consider building your APK with the Mono backend for compatibility.
