Use it for: Optional scenes or content packs loaded when needed.

Start: 1) Match the package version. 2) Assign one prefab an address and group. 3) Load and release it, then make a target-platform content build.

Two packaging groups contain four synthetic assets. The night label selects Lantern and Torch in Group A and Owl in Group B, while Bird has the day label. — Groups affect bundle packaging; labels select assets and can span groups. Exact bundle layout depends on configuration. Original explanatory artwork prepared for GameSlash with AI assistance. Documentation is credited as the factual source only; no source imagery reused.

Try checking: Re-enter the scene in a player build and inspect dependency and memory behavior.

Limits: Groups affect bundle packaging; labels help select assets. Remote content needs hosting and correct paths. Automatic dependency loading does not remove your responsibility to release assets.
