Deep Scanner Module

The Scanner is the engine responsible for traversing the Unity project structure and identifying anomalies.

Architecture

The scanner is built on MRK_Scanner.cs and operates in three distinct phases:

Phase 1: Active Scene Analysis

• Iterates over SceneManager.GetActiveScene() and any loaded additive scenes.
• Uses GameObject.GetComponents to check for null entries (Missing Scripts).
• Uses SerializedObject iteration to check every property for objectReferenceValue == null where the objectReferenceInstanceIDValue != 0.

Phase 2: Background Scene Traversal

To ensure comprehensive coverage without requiring manuals actions:

1. The scanner identifies all .unity files in the project.
2. It uses EditorSceneManager.OpenScene(path, OpenSceneMode.Additive) to verify content.
3. Post-scan, it ensures the scene is closed to maintain a clean workspace.

Phase 3: Asset Analysis

• Prefabs: Loads assets via AssetDatabase.LoadAssetAtPath<GameObject> and checks recursively.
• ScriptableObjects: Scans serialized data for configuration assets.

Performance

The scanner reports progress via EditorUtility.DisplayCancelableProgressBar. For large projects, garbage collection (Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets) is triggered periodically to prevent memory spikes during the scan.
