Pocket Editor Coroutines for Unity3D

May 7, 2026 · View on GitHub

Simplified (50 lines of code) implementation of the Editor Coroutines from Unity. Use it if you need some compact solution and / or do not want to handle this kind of issues.

Features

To skip a frame use standard:

yield return 0;
yield return null;

To wait for seconds use:

yield return 2f; // this will wait for 2 seconds

There is no support for WaitOperation etc. There is no support for nested coroutines.

But it covers most cases of what is usually needed in Editor.

Start Coroutine that way:

PocketEditorCoroutine.Start(enumerator);

or that way

PocketEditorCoroutine.Start(enumerator, this); // where 'this' might be EditorWindow which is used to detect when to stop the coroutine upon shutdown

you can also later stop coroutine by calling

coroutine.Stop();

You can just copy-paste PocketEditorCoroutine.cs to your project to any Editor folder.
