Application.Quit needs to be called twice?

I have a simple Quit button in my game that calls Application.Quit. And it works. Except you have to hit it twice. I can log and see that the button is being pressed twice, and it appears application.quit is called twice.

I do have a couple of game objects with OnApplicationQuit() methods; they are used to save the game and to save the user's preferences when they quit the game. They are successfully invoked (twice).

I've searched around a lot and can't seem to find anyone having a similar problem.

I'm not doing this from the editor either :)

Hi, do you call Application.CancelQuit() on the body of any Monobehaviour.OnApplicationQuit() ??? This might explain why it has to call Application.Quit() twice in order to really finish the process.

No gameobjects should exist at the point that OnApplicationQuit is called, I do believe, as OnDestroy runs before it, which marks the destruction of all the objects. Do you have some gameobject being created in OnDestroy?

@meat5000: do you know any reference for the order in which these events take place ??

I'm trying to open a confirm quit dialog using Application.CancelQuit() at the body of Monobehaviour.OnApplicationQuit. It turned out badly.

Found it yesterday, thanks a lot! Will try native OS functions and a lot of workarounds for my case.
