I have got the persistence using static variables from a class created in a new root scene that is not used for anything else, simply a loading screen. This is the change in the script which is mostly adding the class name along with a new static variable envsa which updates on exiting the scene and is checked on entering the scene. I will also probably set up the dictionary in an autoload script as it won’t be altered and there will be others.
