Get Easy Save from the Unity Asset Store
I've been struggling with this issue for a few hours now, I searched on the forum and noticed there are other "Auto Save prefab" issues but I think none of them is similar to what I'm experiencing.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I have a button in my scene that I use to instantiate a prefab, the prefab is composed of 4 children objects with various components, including TextMeshPro text. I click the button and said prefab is generated, and the TextMesgPro text shows its name, let's call it Room 1.
I can see Room 1 in my hierarchy, and I can see both ES3 Prefab and ES3 Auto Save scripts are attached to it, ES3 Auto Save scripts are also attached to its child gameobjects.
I then stop the game and restart it. All good this first run, Room 1 is still there, but ES3 Prefab script is missing now, which I guess is ok. I don't do anything else, I stop and start again and this time I have ~16 warnings and ES3 Auto Save script has disappeared too. Again I stop and restart, Room 1 is still there but this time I get this error:
Code: Select all
FormatException: Stream isn't positioned before a property.

Note, sometimes it takes 2 restarts, other times 3 restarts before Room 1 disappears.
As per your guide, I followed the correct setup (right-click on prefab-> Easy Save 3 -> Enable Easy Save Prefab) and then I went in the Auto Save tab and selected all the components I wanted to be kept saved.
I also tried the demo scene that you provided on this forum and my prefab works well with that scene. In my scene I'm not doing anything crazy with it, I just instantiate it with a button. Could you give me a hand please? I can't see where I'm doing wrong.
I'm happy to send you the invoice number and my scene too if you wish.
Many thanks
