So to make it simple, I am working with ScriptableObject in my project, all of a sudden i tried to add one more and the editor became so laggy that I can't keep working on the project it's way too annoying to handle...
I have creating a lot of ScriptableObject in my Unity project by hand. My program is quite simple, I just load my ScriptableObject from my Assets folder then do things with them.
I have mainly 3 types of ScriptableObject :
- Extract (contains string, texture & audio)
- Theme (contains a enum value & a list of Extract)
- Oeuvre (contains a string & a list of Theme)
The data linked on the ScriptableObject are in another folder in Assets.
I tried to upgrade from Unity 2019.4.14f1 to 2020.3.4f1 and... nothing changed, too much lag to do anything correctly, it's like several seconds each time I click on a folder BUT the editor started to display a message while freezing (instead of not showing anything at all and just not responding) its says ProjectBrowser.OnGUI.repaint with a progress bar.
At this point I started to observe that the lags occured only while I was browsing some ScriptableObject in my project, when I want to edit some c# script or gameObject within the Scene the message never show up and the editor is smooth like before.
At this point I have around 200 ScriptableObject right now when the editor started to lag.
Maybe I am doing something wrong ? Is the problem coming from the ScriptableObject to reference each other ? Would be great if anyone could give me an hint :)
I am working with a project2D, if it can help...
Thanks in advance.
You can use Profiler to detect what causing problems and which object consumes how much time to render or calculate. You can find if ScriptableObject causing problems or not. You can look:
