Start new Trial after switching Scenes

[brizzen]

Hi Everyone,

how can I ensure that a new Trial starts after switching scenes via SceneManager.LoadScene?

I have a "TaskScene" where UXF is used and a "QuestionnaireScene" from which I then want to switch back to the "TaskScene" and continue the task. UXF is "Set as Main Instance" and "Don't Destroy on Load New Scene" which already avoided starting the UI after switching scenes.

However, the script/function that was dragged into "On Trial Begin (Trial)" does not start automatically when switching scenes. I imagined some call to the task in OnEnable() might help to trigger Trial Begin. But, first, I could not find a way to call the "TaskFunction", and second, I am not sure whether calling the task via OnEnable() might disrupt the settings under UXF_Rig/Session (Script)/Events/... .

Best,
Brais

Hi, I found the solution in the multiscene-experiment example, see:

unity-experiment-framework/Assets/UXF/Examples/3_MultiScene_FootballAndRT/Scripts/Example_MultiSceneExperimentGenerator.cs

Line 9 in fbeeb77

public class Example_MultiSceneExperimentGenerator : MonoBehaviour

Basically, UXF does the job of switching scenes and starting/ending trials using some extra functions that are defined in the example, i.e. SetupTrial (UXF/Events/On Trial Begin) , SceneSpecificSetup (calls what needs to be done in the task) and CleanupTrial (UXF/Events/On Trial End).
