Screenshot capture behavior and crash handling in Unity SDK

[hwangJi-dev]

Hi Sentry team,

I have a couple of questions regarding how screenshot capture works in the Unity SDK.

1. Screenshot capture mechanism
   Based on the documentation and SDK code (e.g., ScreenshotEventProcessor), it seems that screenshots are captured when an event is processed, using a coroutine after EndOfFrame.

   • Is it correct to understand that screenshots are captured only when triggered from the Unity (C#) layer, rather than automatically for every crash or error?
   • In other words, is there no automatic “last-frame” capture unless explicitly triggered by an event?

2. Crash events (native crashes)
   For hard crashes (e.g., EXC_BAD_ACCESS) on iOS/macOS:

   • Since these occur at the native level, is it correct that the Unity screenshot mechanism (C# side) cannot run at crash time?
   • In such cases, is screenshot capture entirely dependent on the native SDK (sentry-cocoa), and therefore subject to its limitations or supports?

Thank you for your clarification!
