Reminder that there's a discord server for Game Devs with official support from many Services including BC. Braincloud seems a bit inactive in that server. Would be great to have some extra staff in there for showcasing.

Yes, that solved the problem. Thanks for your input Chris. Although, i'm always "scared" of using statics so i ended up doing it in a kindly different way.

Since the forum is new, i'll post the solution here in case any future newbies like myself get stuck in the same problem. It's more of a Unity problem and less of a BrainCloud problem but thanks to BC support, i understood what i was doing wrong.

In order to use BrainCloud in multiple scenes you can either use a static variable like Chris said (it's easier doing it like that) or you need to create a GameObject and attach to it the script below.

using UnityEngine;

public class BCConfig : MonoBehaviour
{
    private BrainCloudWrapper _bc;

    public BrainCloudWrapper GetBrainCloud()
    {
        return _bc;
    }

    void Awake()
    {
        
        gameObject.name = "BrainCloud"; // I assign the name Braincloud to my game object to use it in the Find() function
        _bc = gameObject.AddComponent<BrainCloudWrapper>();
        _bc.WrapperName = "MyWrapper"; // optionally set a wrapper-name
        _bc.Init(); // extra data, such as: _appId, _secret and _appVersion, is taken from the brainCloud Unity Plugin. See Installation Guide above
        DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
    }

}

In some other scene where you need access to the _bc variable you just simply do the following on the start method:

 _bc = GameObject.Find("BrainCloud").GetComponent<BCConfig>().GetBrainCloud();

edit: small fix made to the example code, by a brainCloud mod (@Jonathan)

Hello,

Unity noob here, trying to understand how to properly use Braincloud in Unity for different scenes. So far i've attached the following script in an empty GameObject and it succesfully passes through scenes.

public class BCConfig : MonoBehaviour
{
    private BrainCloudWrapper _bc;

    public BrainCloudWrapper GetBrainCloud()
    {
        return _bc;
    }

    void Awake()
    {
        DontDestroyOnLoad(this.gameObject);
        _bc = this.gameObject.AddComponent<BrainCloudWrapper>();

        _bc.WrapperName = gameObject.name;    // Optional: Set a wrapper name
        _bc.Init();      // Init data is taken from the brainCloud Unity Plugin   
    }

}

Now in a different scene, in the start() function i use this: _bc = BCConfig.GetBrainCloud(); but i get an error (Object reference not set to an instance of an object).

What am i missing here? Would using a static BraincloudWrapper work aswell?
