Does anyone know what produces these build outputs? I’m trying to figure out why resources.assets.resS is 1.1 GB. I use Addressables exclusively, and my Resources folder is empty. My scenes are marked as Addressable…

I used an asset ripper to open up the large resources.assets.resS file, and it has game objects that I do not reference in my game’s scenes.

Wow…

Any directory hierarchy which contains \Resources in the path will cause it to be included in the build output. So if you have \harvesting\resources, it will be included. I don’t agree with this design, but this is apparently how it works.
