[Unity] Addressables

Addressables

The Addressables system provides tools and scripts to organize and package content for your application and an API to load and release assets at runtime.

When you make an asset "Addressable," you can use that asset's address to load it from anywhere. Whether that asset resides in the local application or on a content delivery network, the Addressable system locates and returns it.

Adopt the Addressables system to help improve your project in the following areas:

• Flexibility: Addressables give you the flexibility to adjust where you host your assets. You can install assets with your application or download them on demand. You can change where you access a specific asset at any stage in your project without rewriting any game code.
• Dependency management: The system automatically loads all dependencies of any assets you load, so that all meshes, shaders, animations, and other assets load before the system returns the content to you.
• Memory management: The system unloads assets as well as loads them, counting references automatically and providing a robust profiler to help you spot potential memory problems.
• Content packing: Because the system maps and understands complex dependency chains, it package AssetBundles efficiently, even when you move or rename assets. You can prepare assets for both local and remote deployment, to support downloadable content and reduced application size.

어드레서블이 에셋을 원격으로 로드할 수 있으므로 개발 머신에 로컬 에셋 서버를 설정하고 에셋을 기기에 직접 제공할 수 있습니다. 다시 말해 에셋을 수정한 후 어드레서블을 빌드하고 기기의 앱을 다시 시작하면 됩니다. 기기에 앱을 다시 배포할 필요가 없습니다.
