In the Main Menu scene, I attached the below code on an empty gameobject, and it successfully requests for ads and shows it during the entire duration of the Main Menu scene. Though, I want to the ads to not show while the game is in progress. For this, I need to call the bannerView.Hide(); function from the Main Menu empty game object, DURING the Game level is on. How do I achieve this ? How do I add a check, that whenever my Game level plays, the banner gets hidden ?
PS: Adding a check inside the Update function doesn’t work.
The code:
using System;
using UnityEngine;
using GoogleMobileAds;
using GoogleMobileAds.Api;
// Example script showing how to invoke the Google Mobile Ads Unity plugin.
public class GoogleMobileAdsDemoScript : MonoBehaviour
{
private BannerView bannerView;
private InterstitialAd interstitial;
void Start()
{
DontDestroyOnLoad(this);
RequestBanner ();
RequestInterstitial ();
bannerView.Show ();
if (Application.loadedLevelName == "Game") {
bannerView.Hide ();
}
}
private void RequestBanner()
{

#endif
// Create a 320x50 banner at the top of the screen.
bannerView = new BannerView(adUnitId, AdSize.SmartBanner, AdPosition.Bottom);
// Register for ad events.
