Cross-Scene Events: The Persistence Problem Nobody Talks About
Your AudioManager plays background music. It subscribes to OnLevelStart to change tracks when the player enters a new area. You put the AudioManager on a DontDestroyOnLoad object so it persists across scene loads. Everything works during development because you're always testing in the same scene.
Then someone loads Level 2 from Level 1 for the first time. The music stops changing. The AudioManager is still alive — DontDestroyOnLoad did its job — but the event subscription didn't survive the transition. Or worse: the OLD subscription is still there, pointing at the destroyed Level 1 version of the event raiser, and the next time something tries to invoke it you get a MissingReferenceException in the middle of gameplay.
This is the persistence problem, and every Unity project with more than one scene hits it eventually.
