Lost camera movement when loading saved game state, AC 1.74.2, Unity 2020.3.23f1

Chris,

I'm running AC 1.74.2 and Unity 2020.3.23f1. If I save a game state and load from the same scene, saved state loads fine and runs fine. However, if I quit to title screen and load saved state, saved state loads find and player moves, though, camera no longer works. If I quit the game, relaunch and load from save, again the camera appears not to work, though, I can move player. This used to work in the prior version of AC. Also, I've upgraded Unity to 2020.3.23f1 from 2020.3.16f1. I had a prior issue with player movement which turned out to be my terrain lost is layer setting of NavMesh. I'm sure it's some lost setting, any ideas? Tom

What kind of camera is it, and in what way does it not work? Is it in the wrong position / frozen?

You will need to attach a Constant ID component to any Camera that can be active while saving is possible. The Console should report a missing component if you save the game when the active camera doesn't have one. Do you have such a component added?

See the Manual's "Saving scene objects" chapter for details.

New 3rd person cam, frozen. I'll check the console and ID component, thank you!

As you suggested, I had neglected to add back the constant ID to the new 3rd person cam. Thank you, Chris!
