Provider lifecycle management

Learn how Adaptive Performance manages the lifecycle of its providers automatically by integrating with Unity’s standard eventStandard events are application-specific events that you dispatch in response to important player actions or milestones. Standard events have standardized names and defined parameter lists. More info
See in Glossary functions.

The AdaptivePerformanceManagerSettings ScriptableObject uses an AdaptivePerformanceLoader to automatically initialize, start, stop, and deinitialize provider subsystems. This process requires no manual intervention and operates in both scene-based and application-based contexts.

Scene-based lifecycle management

Scene-based automatic lifecycle management ties the provider to a specific MonoBehaviour in a sceneA Scene contains the environments and menus of your game. Think of each unique Scene file as a unique level. In each Scene, you place your environments, obstacles, and decorations, essentially designing and building your game in pieces. More info
See in Glossary, making it active only when that scene loads.
