Scene Surgeon

Scene Surgeon is an advanced editor toolset for Unity developers who demand clarity, precision, and control over their scene architecture. Whether you're debugging sprawling hierarchies, auditing transforms, or hunting elusive null references, Scene Surgeon delivers a visual-first workflow that transforms how you inspect and manage your game objects.

What It Does

Scene Surgeon combines intelligent scanners and an interactive graph to provide a complete breakdown of your scene:

• [NEW] Rendering Analyzer - Scans for static objects without static shadow casting, meshes with 0 triangles, transparent materials casting shadows, unassigned MeshRenderers in LODGroup's, decals that cast shadows.
• [NEW] Audio Scanner - Scans for inefficient audio compression, load types, and sample rates.
• [NEW] Animation Scanner - Scan for expensive animators, cull modes and incorrect configs.
• [NEW] Lighting Scanner - Scan for expesive lighting, reflection probes, and shadows
• [NEW] Physics Scanner - Scan for Rigidbody, Collider & Matrix errors and inefficiencies.
• [NEW] UI Analyzer - Scan for expensive UI configuration, raycast issues and scaling issues.
• Hierarchy Scanner – Scan for deep nested, empty or unnamed gameobjects clogging up your scene.
• Component Scanner – Audit every component type in your scene, highlighting missing fields, and dead components.
• Transform Scanner – Identify scale mismatches, broken parenting, and UI elements outside of a canvas.
• Material Scanner – Flag duplicate materials, find missing textures for materials.
• Prefab Scanner – Find unapplied overrides, detect unnamed duplicates, detect broken/missing monobehaviours.
• Reference Scanner - Flag unassigned/missing references, identify circular & self references.
• Reference Graph – Visualize how everything connects: fields, components, GameObjects, prefabs, materials, circular references and more through an intuitive node graph. Show/Hide Unity object/asset references vs managed code! You can also easily find references of assets in your scene with a single click.

Auto-Fix

This tool doesn't just show you the information, it can also automatically fix it for you too with a simple button click!

Explanation

Don't understand why a report is flagging in your project? Simply hover over it, and you can read and learn about it!

Null Reference Detection

Catch hidden bugs before they reach runtime. Scene Surgeon automatically scans for serialized fields with null links, marks them, and provides an error panel so you can find and fix them fast.

[NEW] Custom Reports

Not all projects are the same! You can make your own reports to accomodate for your own workflow. E.g. Need to check if 100's of prefabs are configured correctly with your own components? Custom reports can do that!

Summary

Whether you're deep into optimization or just trying to keep a clean project structure, Scene Surgeon gives you a surgeon’s scalpel for Unity internals. No more guessing. No more endless digging. Just instant insight.
