Start coroutine on an inactive/de-activated GameObject

Question

I have the following code:

void Start()
{
    gameObject.SetActive(false);
    StartCoroutine(Load());
}

IEnumerator Load()
{
    yield return new WaitForSe         


        

Answer 1

What I do to avoid stopping coroutine is have a game object that does not get deactivated.

public class CoroutineHandler : MonoBehaviour
{
    private static CoroutineHandler instance = null;
    public static CoroutineHandler Instance
    {
        get
        {
            if(instance == null)
            {
                GameObject inst = new GameObject("CoroutineHandler");
                DontDestroyOnLoad(inst);
                instance = inst.AddComponent();
            }
            return instance;
        }
    }
}

Then use this for such coroutines by using CoroutineHandler.Instance.StartCoroutine(RoutineMethodHere());.

If you do not want something like this, since it can go wrong or cause leaks if not handled correctly, you can try using Invoke("MethodName", delay);
