BuildPipeline.BuildContentDirectory

Parameters

Returns

BuildReport The BuildReport for this build.

Description

Builds a content directory (serialized assets and scenes plus a manifest) at a defined output path.

Register the folder at runtime with Unity.Loading.ContentLoadManager.RegisterContentDirectory. Each entry in BuildContentDirectoryParameters.rootAssetPaths must be a ScriptableObject; the build includes those roots and everything they reference (including Loading.LoadableObjectId, Unity.Loading.Loadable{T}, and Loading.LoadableSceneId). Creates an outputPath if missing, normalizes path separators, and defaults BuildContentDirectoryParameters.name to the output folder name.
