Close| type | The type of object or asset to find. |
Object[] The array of objects and assets found matching the type specified.
Returns a list of all active and inactive loaded objects of Type type, including assets.
In addition to all active and inactive scene objects, this function also returns assets that match the type specified (meshes, textures, prefabs, etc.)
Be aware that when running in the editor, this function will also return hidden objects used by Unity itself such as the scene view camera and preview camera.
Please note that this function is very slow. It is not recommended to use this function every frame.
In most cases you can use the singleton pattern instead.
