Known Issues in 2018.4.29f1

  • AI: A NavMeshAgent GameObject teleports to a near NavMeshSurface when collided with a moving NavMeshObstacle (1072945)

  • Audio: Crash on AudioSource::Stop when exiting Play mode (1079263)

  • Linux: Focus cannot be properly gained on play mode, making keyboard input switch screens (1109908)

  • Mobile: [Android][IL2CPP] App crashes during launch with "Using memoryadresses from more than 16GB of memory" messages on Android 11 (1284525)

  • Package Manager: Immutable packages altered by the API Updater are reverted to their original state when packages are resolved, which can lead to slower import performance in that context.

  • Vulkan: Right-clicking panels turns them black when Vulkan is the selected Graphics API (1283290)

  • macOS: If the Android Tools are not installed through the Hub, macOS 10.15 (Catalina) default security settings will prevent the Android NDK binaries being executed. These settings have to be changed or a signed Android NDK (r16b) will be needed to build Android. More information here: https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/older_releases.
