One of my lecturers pointed out the Debug option in the inspector and I had a whole moment of going "OH MY GOD THAT MAKES LIFE SO MUCH EASIER AAAAAAA!"

Get well soon. And no, I did not know Start can be a coroutine, that's cool, and very useful. Good video!

man, there were so many great little tips packed into this! great work Taro, hope you feel better soon!!

Your videos are so condensed and packed with useful information, it really helps me get started with programming and I know I will return to your channel a lot when I get better and finally understand the more advanced concepts. And get well soon!

I did know about debug inspector option (I love it), the other tips were all new to me. Big thanks Taro and get well soon!

I did not know any of these tips... but now I do! Love the efficiency, Taro! Also, sorry to hear about the sickness. Hopefully the symptoms pass soon!

Those are some really good tips, I knew about the RuntimeInitializeOnLoadMethod but had no ideea about the BeforeSceneLoad attribute. Good job in selecting the tips, usually videos will present very common and basic tips but you presented some that can be new to even intermediate or experienced developers. You've earned yourself a sub :D

Great format, looks good visually too

Simple but Effective and yet, Cool 😎 Tips👍🏻 Thank you 🙏🏻

Oh Taro! Love the ice cream pointer!

This is one of these "WTF HOW IS IT POSSIBLE I DON'T KNOW THIS" moments.. thanks for sharing!

OMG the animation tip was very useful for me T_T THANSKK!!

Fantastic video! I hope you will get better soon! Also cannot wait for the video about quaternions :D

Nice, Solid and short !!

I wish I had this video when I was starting out, would have saved me a lot of time

Get well soon! You have no idea how helpful these kinds of videos are! RunTimeInitializeOnLoadMethod..... Where were you so long? Thank you so much.

The animation fix thing is amazing.

Knew about the 2nd two. The first two were mind blowing though!!

Okay I am so hyped for this video about quaternions now. God bless you if u actually manage to explain it to me (which I have no doupt about)

Get well soon. Make sure to get enough rest.

great video!

Great video! Also, if you use UniTask package, you can make the Start method return a UniTaskVoid (similar to async void but cooler to use in MonoBehaviours!).

Get well soon and for good!

For 0:19 I have there two versions. 1. I use scriptableobjects. You can put prefabs there all will be instantiate whenever you press play. I had a game with over 1 million downloads around 2013-2015 and this was a 1000% dev boost hehe, because it had singlestons and needed to start first scene always. With this method I could start from everywhere. 2. In our large scaled mmo game we use scene with all needed stuff. This will always get loaded at first with RuntimeInitializeOnloadMethod. You can also combine with DontDestroyOnLoad then switch to other scenes like you want instead of using additive.

This is soo good.

That animation fix tip! 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Another great video and visualization! I wasn't aware about the AnimationClip missing property warnings and the easy re-setup. Hope you'll get well soon! For RuntimeInitializeOnLoad, one time I forgot that I had a scene that sets up stuff there and I got weird behaviour. That's hard to debug if there is no logging going on and you have a script somewhere you forgot about. I've also been using it recently to set up my project for Disabled Domain Reloading, and I love it! Instead of having my project compile for like 5-10 seconds every time, I can no hope into playmode in around 1 second.

@@Tarodev Yep! I also had a generic base class for singletons that held a static variable, and Unity doesn't call RuntimeInitializeOnLoad on generic classes, so I had to the types inheriting it with reflection and reset the static value that way. ... later I rechecked the whole thing and decided I could just get rid of that static variable without issue, which was a much better approach.

Just keep in mind that async functions in Unity might keep waiting after exiting play mode. You can try to cancel the awaited function on destroy() to avoid ending with spawned objets on edit mode like me lol.

Sure, you're an incredible resource to the Unity world. Yeah, you teach like you were born to it (and I'm a teacher, trust me, you have talent), but even if all of those *very true things* were not so, you've always been a friendly, funny, guy that brightens our day (we look forward to your videos) and inspires us to go make amazing things. Take care of youself, Brother. See you soon.

Many people don't know about the "new" C# feature where you can put a attribute on a property backend field with they field keyword, Unity also supports it, so you can now (finally) make serializable auto properties with the following syntax: [field:SerializableField] public int MyIntProperty {get; private set;}

@GiraPrimal

2 жыл бұрын

Keep in mind this only works with auto properties. If you want to use specific behaviour in get or set (i.e. validation, firing events), you'll need a backing field and put the property in it. [SerializableField] private int _backingField; public int Property { get => _backingField; set { _backingField = value; OnFieldChange?.Invoke(value); }

You can also have 2+ inspector windows. So you can have 1 locked and the other for the selected object! (Also, had no clue start could be a coroutine, but mostly use async lately)

Hey, I've been working with unity for a bit now and wanted to say thanks for all the great tutorials. Would it be possible to make a tutorial about e.g. an updater? So for example with Bloons TD6 when you start the game it downloads the latest version and does not reinstall this, would this be possible at all? Or via a Unity Launcher Updater? Thanks in advance many greetings DevNost

All of these were a surprise to me :v

get well

I have to admit, I have been using Unity for years.... and how dumb I felt when I recently (like a month ago) figured out you can just make certain Unity methods return "IEnumerator" and they will automatically be called as a coroutine by Unity.

Good on ya for soldiering on despite.

Does async Start() stall the scene loading? If so it seems like a bad practice to do heavy stuff there?

The debug menu does not show unserialized values. It does show private values, but only ilwhen they are marked with the serialize field attribute.

Long COVID?

The animation one goes even further: if your hierarchy differs entirely from what the animation expects (say you have nested your animation target somewhere else), you can pass it the exact location within the hierarchy by instead passing 'parentObject.otherParents.animationTarget' (I think it was '.' to separate parents from child objects, you might want to check). No need to rework the entire animation or your hierarchy at all!

You destroyed me with these, developing for years and half of them I didn't know! (Right the first one shocked me: IEnumerator Start() ) BOOM! Achievment unlocked: game dev tutorial of the month on youtube!

That IEnumerator Start Method is pretty cool, it probably works on Awake also right? Covid is really a ball busting one, get well soon
