About this asset
PlayFromInit – Scene Start Manager is a lightweight Unity Editor utility that simplifies multi-scene workflows.
When you press Play, it automatically loads your chosen Init (Bootstrap) scene, then restores your previous scenes and selections when Play Mode stops — no manual switching or lost work.
It’s fully customizable through Project Settings, letting you:
- Choose a Start Scene
- Enable or disable Auto Save before Play
- Manage Scene Sets for additive workflows
- Restore open scenes and active selections automatically
This tool is ideal for any Unity project with multiple scenes — from mobile and console games to complex UI or live-ops systems.
Compatible with Unity 2017.x – 6.x LTS, it’s editor-only, safe, and performance-friendly.
Focus on development, not scene juggling — PlayFromInit keeps your Play Mode workflow clean, fast, and reliable.
