Changelog

Version 1.2.0

• Added: code string reference detection - Resources.Load / LoadAsync / LoadAll, Shader.Find and Addressables keys (addresses and labels) resolved to project assets; comment-aware, literal-only, updated incrementally on script save
• Added: "Loaded by code" section in the detail panel with click-to-line
• Added: delete dialog warnings when code loads an asset being deleted, and when a selected asset still has inbound references
• Added: case-mismatch warnings for Resources.Load paths
• Added: Find Path mode (toolbar toggle or P; Esc cancels) - shortest chain plus up to four alternatives, wrong-order queries answered in the true direction
• Added: Options menu with a persisted toggle for code detection
• Fixed: backups could silently skip files after a file dialog changed the process working directory - paths now resolve against the project root, every backup copy is verified on disk before deletion is allowed, and an empty backup aborts the delete with an explicit error
• Fixed: removed GraphView's built-in unguarded Cut / Copy / Delete / Duplicate from the node right-click menu - the only delete path is the confirmed, backed-up one
• Fixed: the confirm button rendered as "Delete _Backup" on Windows; it now reads "Backup + Delete"
• Fixed: deleted assets no longer linger in the graph - the view rebuilds after a delete
• Improved: duplicate detection is opt-in per session via the Find Duplicates button - it never runs automatically on editor start, script compile, Play mode, or after a rescan
• Improved: deleting duplicates updates the list in place instead of re-hashing the project
• Improved: orphan detection excludes assets with detected code references
• Improved: dynamic (unresolvable) load calls are detected and listed rather than ignored

Version 1.1.1

• Fixed: event handler lifecycle bug in the dependency graph window
• Improved: allocation and GC reductions across the sync scanner, async scanner, Addressables probe and window code - roughly 5–15% faster scans on large projects with smoother frame timing

Version 1.1.0

• Asynchronous scanning
• Duplicate file detection (Dupes tab)
• Keyboard shortcuts for common actions
• Settings persistence (filter, depth, panel widths)
• Post-delete cache updates - deleting assets is instant, no full rescan

Version 1.0.0 - Initial release

• Interactive node-based dependency graph (pan, zoom, minimap, layered layout)
• Conservative orphan detection with exclusions
• Heaviest-assets view, recents, and type filtering
• Safe delete with timestamped backup and restore
• Graphviz DOT export and Markdown/CSV reports
