What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of navigating multiple opened scenes, allowing users to mark a specific scene as the active one easily.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Set Active Scene: Mark any opened scene as the Editor's active scene, where new GameObjects are added.
  • Use 'scene-list-opened': Use the accompanying tool to enumerate all opened scenes first.
  • Scenario: When you need to focus on one specific scene for object addition or editing, and you want to ensure it's active for further operations.

Quick Start

Set the scene named 'GameplayScene' as active with the command 'unity-mcp-cli run-tool scene-set-active --input-file scene_info.json'

Frequently Asked Questions about scene-set-active

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set an active scene in the Unity Editor for adding new GameObjects?▼

You can change the active scene in Unity by providing the target scene name to a scene management tool. This designates the specific opened scene as active, allowing new GameObjects to be added directly to it.

What is the process for switching active scenes when multiple scenes are opened in Unity?▼

Switching active scenes with multiple opened scenes requires identifying the target scene name first. You then run a scene activation command to switch the editor's focus and enable object editing within that specific scene.

Can I automate Unity scene activation through script execution instead of the UI?▼

Yes, Unity scene activation supports script execution modes. You can trigger the active scene switch programmatically by passing a scene info file to the command line tool, bypassing the UI.

Why do I need to set an active scene before adding objects in Unity?▼

Setting an active scene before adding objects ensures new GameObjects are instantiated in the correct environment. It explicitly marks the target scene as the destination for further editing and object addition operations.

How do I list opened scenes in Unity before switching the active one?▼

You can list opened scenes in Unity by running a scene-list-opened tool to enumerate all active contexts. This outputs the available scene names required to target and activate the correct scene.
