You're so underrated. I love your tutorials, thank you so much.

ty for the tips for each video, very helpful

Concise information as always. Someday could you cover how to code a combo system with precise inputs I.E. Marvel Vs. Capcom, Tekken, Skull Girls etc except in a top down format? Thanks for these CM! you're the best.

So nice ! Thanks ! :)

hey man nice videos tyou have there. I have a question: is there any isometric real time arpg and mouse movement controlled (diablo-clone) with freeflow combat mechanics? (like shadow of war , assassins creed etc) Im looking for nice and many animations, counter attacks and that smooth cinematic/acrobatic feeling . ty in advance.

Love the video!

hey CM I have one more question why did you return an Enemy when creating an enemy . I found out that it is also possible to create an object without retuning anything in some cases , can you please explain it to me it would be very helpful for me. thanks And also why did you instantiate a transform and not a gameobject ??

What if you wanted to scroll the combat text on a panel?

Hi code monkey, great tutorial. I got a question. Why do we use this approach over using 2D colliders on the individual enemies? I understand this current game where there are lots of enemies this approach is objectively better but say for a game with 1v1 fights would it be better or worse to use 2D colliders instead?

@CodeMonkeyUnity

Sure you can place a collider in the attack position and look for what it hits, or even better just do Physics2D.CircleCast();

It uses the old input system but you can easily convert it, the melee logic is the same

Hey there, I am rather new to unity and was hoping to find a better way(then with timers) to let the attack animation finish before returning to idle. I don't want to manage timers for every attack(if possible). Appreciate your guidance thanks!

@CodeMonkeyUnity

You could just make a proper timer class with some simple exposed functions to start a timer and get a callback. Something like: public void StartTimer(float time, Action onTimerElapsed);

Can you make a video on weapon system as part of player attack? Maybe how equipment can be accounted for into the player attack and animation system? For example, melee attack verse ranged attack versed caster magic? One uses a sword, the other a bow, and the last magic which may or may not have a weapon equiped?

Hi, how do i go about making the character face the attack direction after an attack instead of snapping back to its last moveDirection. I've been stuck at it for hours and can't seem to figure it out. Thanks :)

That depends heavily on what animation system you're using, but you would just basically store a Vector3 for the lastAttackDirection and default to that animation while not moving.

On 16:00 when I try to spawn enemies, the object being instantiated is null. Which I think is because of GameAssets.i.pfEnemy. I have the GameAssets script, do I put it on the enemy or spawner object? Both don't work for me when I assign the prefab to pfEnemy.

@CodeMonkeyUnity

Make sure you're assigning the reference on the GameAssets prefab, not the object on the scene. Or assign it to the object on the scene but then also save the prefab Depending on the script order execution it might use the object in the scene or it might instantiate a new GameAssets prefab.

About 70, the number itself doesn't matter, it's all relative to the size of your objects.

Isnt it bad practice to just allow the player to spam the mouse to attack, wouldnt it be better to have a timer to limit the number of attacks, like attacks per second or some such mechanism.

@CodeMonkeyUnity

Depends on what type of game you're making. If it's meant to be like Dark Souls then you should let the animation play fully, if it's meant to be fast paced you can let the player attack at every click.

This is the only video on the internet I can find that explains how to targeted melee attacks, yet, if you follow this tutorial, you'd have to write an entire library of other utilities and animation scripts. Each one with leads back to previous videos. At this point, trying to get my character to have targeted melee becomes useless because I might as well just pretend my game is your game. Solution: is there a simpler way of rotation an animation from the animator?

The logic for finding the target is what matters, calculating the direction and identifying nearby objects, that logic can work with any animation system you want.
