reK ReplayKit Plugin for iOS and Unity 5.3.x

If you are experiencing problems with version 1.0 of reK ReplayKit Plugin for iOS running in Unity 5.3, here are some technical details and a quick fix while we re-submit a fixed package to the AssetStore for review.

The problem is that Unity 5.3 introduced some changes to how [ExecuteInEditMode] and DontDestroyOnLoad() works, which results in the destruction of the reK prefab instance whenever you open a test scene in the editor or drag the prefab into your own scene.

In order to fix this, just locate the Awake() call in UnityReplayKit.cs and change this

if (dontDestroyOnLoad == true) {
  DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
}

into

if (Application.isPlaying == true && dontDestroyOnLoad == true) {
  DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
}

and you are done.

The fix will ship with the next update of reK.
