Methods
Initialize

Editor only method, that is called when an instance of this provider is assigned to a network entry. If Validate returns false, the UI will show a button that will call Initialize again.

LoadAsset

Called from CoherenceSyncConfig when CoherenceSyncConfig.Instantiate is called, the object is loaded forcing synchronicity. If the provider is naturally asynchronous (Addressables/Asset Bundles), using this method can incur in heavy performance penalties because the main thread will be blocked while the object is loaded.

OnApplicationQuit

Called when the application exits.

Release

Called when coherence needs to destroy a prefab instance, when the related network entity is destroyed.

Validate

Editor only method, that is called by the UI to validate the serialized data of this Provider.
