UI Buttons Stop Working After I Load Another Scene And Then Come Back.

Question

Hi,

so i have a game over scene and i have 2 buttons (which i created using the new UI menu, i did't create them using script), a restart button and an end game button.

When i create the buttons and i add the OnClick function they work fine, but if i load a different scene and then come back to the game over scene they stop working, they don't even change colors when i hover over them or i press them.

I might know what is wrong. add at Start() { Time.timeScale = 1; }

your game might have been paused to zero, and I don't know why Unity keeps the timescales... sometimes...

I had to do this, but also the event system game object was not in a persistent game object in the hiearchy, so it didn't have DontDestroyOnLoad. I just made it part of another GameObject that had DontDestoryOnLoad AND followed Ironcross's advice for "Force Module Active" and all was well again. :)

Tried all of these and didn't fix it. Finally found my problem:

I'm using the standard 1st person controller asset, and it locks the cursor. Need to unlock the cursor when going back to the main menu.

In the past I have had: 1. UI textbox/image is on top of button so it isn't clickable 2. DontDestroyOnLoad doing wonky things

Cheers
