Getting Started

Follow this guide to run your first scan and clean up your project.

1. Open the Dashboard

Go to Tools > Missing Reference Killer > Scan Project. The main dashboard will open.

2. Run a Scan

Click the large SCAN PROJECT button. The tool will iterate through:

  • 📂 Scenes: All scenes in Build Settings + currently open scenes.
  • 📦 Prefabs: All prefabs in your Assets folder.
  • 📄 ScriptableObjects: All configuration references.

[!TIP] scanning large projects (100GB+) may take a minute. The progress bar will show you the exact status.

3. Analyze Results

Issues are displayed in a clean list with color-coded severity:

  • â–ˆ Red (Critical): Missing Script. The component itself is broken.
  • â–ˆ Yellow (Warning): Null Reference. A variable field is empty but the component is valid.

4. Fix Issues

You have three ways to fix issues:

  1. Auto-Fix Safe: Click the FIX SAFE button to automatically resolve all non-critical warnings (e.g., clearing null fields).
  2. Manual Fix: Click the Select button next to an issue to ping the object in the Hierarchy/Project window.
  3. Smart Suggest: Click Suggest to let the AI find the missing asset for you.
