Technical Note on Timeline and Play Mode

If you are using the Timeline system and want to preview animations exactly as configured in the Timeline during Play Mode, please pay attention to the Enter Play Mode settings in Unity.

---

• Navigate to Edit > Project Settings > Editor.

---

• In the Enter Play Mode Settings section, make sure the Reload Scene option is disabled (select either Do not reload Domain or Scene or Reload Domain only).

---

Disabling scene reload prevents Unity from reloading the scene when entering Play Mode, ensuring your Timeline setup remains intact without resetting animations or objects.

---

Important

Adjust the playback speed to review the animation in slow motion or fast forward, depending on your analysis or presentation needs.

If you re enable Reload Scene, or exit and re-enter Play Mode, everything will reset to the initial state, and the scene will reload completely.

Use the frame byframe navigation to closely inspect animation details, especially when fine tuning animation timing or syncing audio.

Any changes or previews made during Play Mode will not be saved automatically after exiting Play Mode.
