    my mana image doesnt show the mana decreasing after i transition to a different scene. IT will deplete in scene 1 but when i go to scene 2 my mana meter image will reset and won’t go down. However when i go back to scene 1, my mana meter will show the amount it should be.

    Ive assigned the mana prefab to my player character in all 3 scenes and have a canvas with mana in each scene. Did i miss something in the inspecotr?

    also to be noted: when i load straight from scene 2, my mana image will deplete – only after transitioning from scene 1 to 2

    another wierd thing:

    when i start from scene 2 and transition to scene 1, then try to take damage, i wont take damage – an error occurs where it says im missing a game object which has been destroyed but im trying to access it — also if i try to use my up mana spell (the only mana spell i used) i will get stuck in the animation after my explosion effect occurs

    when i transition from scene 1 to scene 2 and back to scene 1, taking damage will cause all my hearts to dissapear and set my health instantly to zero

    rlly weird glitches

    also idk if this helps but my heart containers will carry over scene transitions – just not the mana

    good news – i fixed the issue with the hearts by adding if(HeartContainers != null){} to the entire void start function and void updateheartsHUD of the heart container script

    just so you know those errors i showed for my scene transition script arent happening anymore – still have a broken mana meter though

    For your scene transition, it seems like this is the line that is the problem:

    StartCoroutine(UIManager.Instance.sceneFader.FadeAndLoadScene(SceneFader.FadeDirection.In, transitionTo));

    You can do a debug log of UIManager.Instance and UIManager.Instance.sceneFader to see which is null.

    For your mana issue, check your character’s mana stat on the Inspector when playing. Does it decrease? If it does, then it means the mana stat is not properly linked to the UI on the new scene.

    OK im not sure if its right but it fixed the issue:

    in scenes 2 and 3 i deleted the mana images from the canvas

    now when i go from scene 1 to 2 it stays

    i think the mana images were overlapping

    just wondering – when i load from scene 2 or 3 my mana wont appear and hearts are set to 0 – is there an easier method of doing what i did without making everything reset unless i start from scene 1
