RMMV Scene lifecycle? Where to do clean-up?

[ArbalestSD]

Hi everyone,
I was wondering, what is the lifecycle of a Scene like?

I wrote a plugin to draw some stuff on screen in Scene_Map. I did that by creating some sprites an adding them to the scene's children. Now menu windows are partially transparent in the game but I do not want the things I draw in the Scene_Map to be seen through the windows of my menus so I would like to remove those children I added to Scene_Map but I don't know where.

At first I tried to pass a reference to the Scene_Map instance into Scene_Menu but as soon as you change scenes the Scene_Map instance's children property turns into an empty array (but I need to modify this array). So I thought maybe there is some function in the scene lifecycle that gets called every time when the game changes out of one scene and into another, and there is such a function. It is called “terminate” but by the time terminate gets called the children array is already empty.

So is there some function that gets called once you change from one scene to another that gets called before the children array gets emptied?

Found my answer and for future generations here is the very simple solution:

I just have to make ma modifications to children in the terminate function before I call aliased reference to terminate.
