I created a new empty scene with the default camera and a sphere with my shader (HDR) and in that scene both scene and game view are not bright. :/

[nova brook]

Oh man ....in these channels there are lot of devs related to that stuff

[deft rock]

and #💻┃code-beginner gets questions not related to code what-so-ever, people don't read channel names or topics.. posting in the wrong places all over

[deft rock]

I'm afraid I gave the suggestion to the only thing I can think of, got no other ideas. You may stop pinging me now, I cannot help further (:

[stiff niche]

🟢 Found the issue ℹ️

Cinemachine Volume Setting was overriding the default volume and removing the Bloom since its intensity is 0 by default.

[rancid lintel]

From those of you that are using unity with git
And have set up the UnityYAML merge tool in the git settings like the documentation suggests...

Did you know you actually have to run the command git mergetool after a conflict for the tool to do anything!?

Once you get a conflict, you run git mergetool and that's when the tool actually does something 😐

Did y'all know? Was I the only one to not know this? 😐

[dusk dock]

my unity does not seem to save preferences anymore, anyone know what could cause that?

on linux

[sly lake]

Permissions issue?

[dusk dock]

how do I check?

oh derp I got it

~/.local/share/unity3d/ did not exist so I had to create it by hand and now everything saves again

unity really should warn about that

[spiral moth]

how does unity run c# code

[potent geyser]

In what sense?

[dusk dock]

.net

[gray frigate]

it uses the Mono runtime by default

CoreCLR soon™

[slow steeple]

i updtated unity hub and now i cant run it, i deleted the "old" one but now i cant open it...

[spiral moth]

how does it call c++ functions from engine

[storm patio]

unity doesn't care about this stuff, the runtime (mono) can link native functions marked by extern in c#

not too confident about this stuff, but afaik, this is done with dylibs on windows and sos on *nix

if you'd like to learn more you could probably just research "c# extern c++ function" or something like that

[lapis escarp]

Where can I learn to use the Programming Language? These tutorials only help with 3d models... -_-

[spiral moth]

youtube

blender is for 3d modelling

[storm patio]

look for programming tutorials instead of 3d model tutorials

there are some pinned in #💻┃code-beginner

[lapis escarp]

The built in Unity tutorials.

[mental plank]

hi, everyone
I need some advice.
I am planning to make a 2d turn based strategy game with Unity.
but I am wondering that the app built for android will be too big.
if it's just 2d game, is that not too big ?

[lapis escarp]

Will check that out.

[potent geyser]

Being a 2D or 3D game has no bearing on whether it will be "too big". Have you never played any game on the app store? What you have seen is literally what has been possible.

[mental plank]

yeah, I have ever played some games but they were usually 200mb or so
I think 50~60mb would be good for mobile

[potent geyser]

Okay, so aim for that if that's a requirement for you.

I'm sure lots of very successful mobile games that aren't would love to hear the advice that if they were 50-60mb, they would have made magnitudes more money.

[mental plank]

you mean, is that possible for sure ?

[storm patio]

there are some programming tutorials and some 3d modelling tutorials

[honest stirrup]

Hi guys do you know if Bonecracker Games (dev of RCCP) is here in this server?

[potent geyser]

Using Unity has overhead by default, but it's not 200mb by default. So yes, technically you could.

[mental plank]

thank you for your advice

[dusk dock]

the size mostly depends on the content, ie. graphics and music etc

[pure igloo]

does anyone know how to make aoe attacks work?

[potent geyser]

That's way too vague.

"Make code do AoE" is the best answer you'll get.

[pure igloo]

I have an enemy with dynamic rb , trigger on , simulated and a box collider on it. I want to use a particle system to detect when the particle and the enemy overlap with each other.

[fair cove]

Why dont you check the search feature? But if you have a specific question about a specific asset by a specific developer, chances are they might have their own server or at the very least contact info provided on the asset store (as its a requirement for publishing), maybe you can contact that dev through that way

[pure igloo]

i have been stuck on this for the last 2 days

i can't find guides on youtube which explain this precisely

[potent geyser]

I don't know why you'd want the particle system to check each particle for the collision? AoE is an area, just check within a given area and align your particle system to be the size of that area.

[pure igloo]

it's like a fart attack. it increases in size overtime

[potent geyser]

But if you feel like particles is how you need to do it, then there are particle collision callbacks:
https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/Manual/particle-collisions.html

[pure igloo]

i have reffered to that doc over and over, i am too braindead to be able to use it to resolve my issue

[potent geyser]

Your collisions don't need to be pixel/particle perfect.

Just use a collider that scales with the particles.

[fair cove]

Depending on the shape, you can even use multiple colliders (or physics casting) or a custom mesh like a cone

[pure igloo]

so...attach another collider onto the gameobject which has the particle system component, and increase its size along with the particle system through code?

[potent geyser]

Yes

Also, depending on how fast the actual attack is, you probably don't even have to scale it. Just have it at the actual size and call it a day. The visuals don't have to necessarily align perfectly.

[pure igloo]

ok, and are there alternative ways to do it?

[potent geyser]

Yes 🫴 #💻┃unity-talk message

[pure igloo]

another thing, i did say, it's meant for collision, but i rly just want it to trigger, i don't want to move the enemy away...does the link address that?

[potent geyser]

OnParticleCollision will just tell you that a particle in the system collided with something. It doesn't actually move push things around unless you apply that force yourself.

https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/MonoBehaviour.OnParticleCollision.html

[pure igloo]

yeah, this isn't working in my case, i don't rly know why

ideally, i could have just used this with trigger on, to detect the collisions but that doesn't work for some reason

[storm patio]

couldn't you just use a trigger volume

[pure igloo]

i don't know what that is

[storm patio]

a collider with "Is Trigger" set to true

trigger volume = trigger collider

[pure igloo]

oh, the enemy has that on, and when i have this

using Unity.VisualScripting;
using UnityEngine;

public class ParticleCollisionScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    // Start is called once before the first execution of Update after the MonoBehaviour is created
    void OnParticleTrigger()
    {
        Debug.Log("Particle Collision Detected.");
    }
}

on the gameobject having particle system, it doesn't rly work

[storm patio]

i'm referring to the AoE, not the enemy.

[pure igloo]

this is my aoe rn

said Duck gameobjects are the enemies

[storm patio]

absolutely no clue what that is tbh

[storm patio]

so that's the vfx for your aoe

[pure igloo]

i think so

[storm patio]

did you read what i said at all though

[pure igloo]

you told me to use trigger volume, ie have trigger set to ON, i have it set to ON, and I have script which uses OnParticleTrigger(), if this is not what you meant, then i am def misunderstanding something

[storm patio]

ie have trigger set to ON
a trigger collider, not a particle that interacts with trigger colliders

[pure igloo]

OH WAIT

[storm patio]

the particle system is not a trigger volume

[pure igloo]

no shot

[storm patio]

the "Trigger" module means it interacts with triggers, not that it is a trigger

[pure igloo]

what kind of a collider should i use?

[storm patio]

.... a trigger

what exactly is your question

[proven obsidian]

hello, can someone tell me how to redirect the vector to another. move direction to camera forward for example

[storm patio]

if you mean the shape, well, whatever shape you want the aoe to be

[storm patio]

you would multiply the movement amount by the direction vector (aka magnitude * direction)

[pure igloo]

didn't you mean that i need to attach a collider and set the trigger to ON, for it to work?

[storm patio]

yes, the trigger field on the collider

[proven obsidian]

ok lemme try

ty

[pseudo cargo]

all I did was adjust rate over time on a few particle systems

have to undo, looks bad

[pure igloo]

so, in a nutshell, i need to attach a collider with trigger, adjust its radius using code with the particle system, and if this collider triggers a collision, it tells me that i detected it. There's no way for just the particle system to tell me whether a particle collision has been detected unless i am attaching another box or whatever collider to it

[storm patio]

i'm not familiar with particle system at all, to me it seems like an easier option would be to control both from a shared code system

There's no way for just the particle system to tell me whether a particle collision has been detected
idk about this at all, it seems to me like the Collision/Trigger modules are for just that

i just think a trigger collider just makes more sense for AoE

is there some specific reason you wanted to bind the AoE effect to a particle system?

[pure igloo]

because the aoe itself is the particle system.

its not like the colliders and vfx are separate or something or maybe i dunno

[storm patio]

what, you want each individual particle to deal damage?

[pure igloo]

it's just one particle, which is increasing in size

the whole cloud is one particle

[storm patio]

i was thinking it was something like dragon's breath or fire, sure ig

[pure igloo]

it's a fart by poop to be precise

[storm patio]

why wouldn't they be separate though, just in general

visuals and simulated reality very often don't align

[pure igloo]

cus the particle system itself comes with collisions and triggers, seems kinda counterintuitive to use other colliders, like why would they bother giving particle systems these properties if noone could use them

[storm patio]

it doesn't come with those

it comes with the capability of detecting those

[pure igloo]

look at this and tell me they don't look like colliders

my brain intuitively thought these were actual colliders

[storm patio]

ah, that was for the trigger module
for the collider module it seems like phsyics colliders are generated for the particles

[storm patio]

ah.

[pure igloo]

it has an in built collider in it then?

[storm patio]

sure, i guess

[pure igloo]

then why the hell ain't it doing poop

nvm, i will just start reading the documents

something should pop up i guess

[storm patio]

afaik particles usually come in groups though, this isn't wholly overlapping functionality with just having a separate collider

[pure igloo]

[storm patio]

weren't you using triggers

[pseudo cargo]

I love squeezing unity's VFX into a 3 minute animation
loud and epilepsy warning

[pure igloo]

particle trigger, not circle collider trigger.

[pseudo cargo]

sorry man

[storm patio]

also make sure to set it to use callbacks

[pure igloo]

BRO that looks amazing, i can't even begin to imagine how complex the colliders for that thing would be

[pseudo cargo]

not using colliders

bigger than it looks

Is anyone able to help me with the inspector panel? It doesn't work for me 🙁

[pearl oyster]

In what way does it not work?

[storm patio]

you haven't selected any object

[charred turret]

I'm new to Unity but when I click NetWork manager I should see Transform or at least an add componet right?

[pearl oyster]

It's a scene. Scenes don't have those things. Are you sure you weren't supposed to make a GameObject instead?

MMO might be a bit too ambitious for a first project

[charred turret]

I have a scene selected.

[pearl oyster]

Yes, a scene called "NetworkManager"

[charred turret]

Okay. Thanks for trying.

[potent geyser]

Scene objects aren't actual game objects, there's nothing to show in the inspector.

[frozen bridge]

What would be better for building large worlds in Unity. A dual 2.50 ghz cpu setup or a single 3.70 cpu? The workstation I am looking is either dual or single cpu setup.

[plain dagger]

Is the cpu from the last 10 years 😆 ? doesnt sound like it

[fleet canopy]

most things are single threaded so you’d want a setup that can focus on that well

#1249155543264657408 might also be a good resource

[frozen bridge]

Ok so unity is still mostly single threaded, that's what I needed to know, thanks.

[plain dagger]

I disagree but most "user code" will be single threaded
Anyway if your two choices are this bad i think both are going to be shit

If the cpus are very old they will be slowed down even more by the spectre and meltdown bug patches too

[placid yew]

Hey guys, I’m trying to make a tool that shows recently opened prefabs in a neat way for quick access and was wondering how I would go about doing so… I’m struggling to find a way to find what the most recently opened prefab in editor is; i assume this will have to involve reflection of some sort?

[plain dagger]

Its actually easy, there is an event for when a prefab stage is opened!
https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/SceneManagement.PrefabStage-prefabStageOpened.html

that is the name of the special prefab editing mode btw

[placid yew]

Thank you! Also, im trying to figure out a way to open prefabs via aliases on mac/shortcuts on windows, basically, opening the same prefab but have them in a separate directory(quick access)

[frozen bridge]

I never said cpu models, building a new pc as I said. Its a workstation not a razer rebuilt like your probably used to.

[plain dagger]

HAHA okay

I build my last two pcs myself and basically no modern cpu is single core anymore

Unless you are restricted to older models where you are then you have to do the best you can

Or are you talking about dual socket (which would be overkill for unity)?

[placid yew]

What I’m trying to say is, is there a way to pass the prefab by reference and display it in a folder inside the directory? Or do I kinda have to rely on a list/array to do it in editor

[plain dagger]

A prefab is an asset so it has a GUID that can be used to retrieve the same asset later

that is the case for all unity assets, they all have a unique GUID

Use asset database to get an asset path and convert that to a GUID
https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/AssetDatabase.GetAssetPath.html

[placid yew]

Thank you!!

if its textures not applying my fix is get UniGLB and just export ur things as .glb

You actually would want to use the GLfast package for glb support.
However for a beginner its better you learn how to setup a material with textures yourself instead

I bet this is a vr chat thing anyway based on the seperate alpha texture 🤔

Does anyone know how to fix this issue were the material in your scene mode is different looking then when you enter your play mode. Cause in play mode thats what itll look like when uploaded to vrchat. I cant fix this problem.

is there a way to tile a plane i created in unity by 4x4 material slots or do i need to use blender for that

[sharp plank]

is there any way i can move something with my mouse raycast but only on specifical x,y,z

[violet thunder]

Different looking in what way? show screenshots

The scene view has a few options for different rendering modes so it could be those

[violet thunder]

Use 4 different quads/planes or make a single mesh in blender with 4 materials

[violet thunder]

Yes, just keep the previous value on that axiscs Vector3 newPos = // Your raycast hit point or whatever newPos.y = transform.position.y; // Keep old y transform.position = newPos;

Basically no engine system holds up at that size

[celest matrix]

how do games like Microsoft Flight Sim handle earth size maps?

[sly lake]

Custom engine

It’s doable. Kerbal Space Program did it. But you need floating origin, you’ll want HDRP for camera-relative rendering, and a custom terrain system

You’d be working around a lot of limitations

May want to look into other engines though. Some are designed for this kind of thing

[storm patio]

i remembered wrong

[violet thunder]

Particle system or VFX graph?

Seems like a Bounds issue

[boreal river]

It's a particle system yes and I am 100% sure its not related with code

I dont disable it somewhere

[violet thunder]

Look at the bounds, is it properly around the particle system?

[boreal river]

Oh let me see

[boreal river]

I am not sure

Thats my bound box

[violet thunder]

Looks ok

[boreal river]

Give me a minute to build my game

and run it there

[violet thunder]

I'm confused by this description though, doesn't it just disappear when you get too close?

[boreal river]

Basically, it disappears when I am crouching

[violet thunder]

Well that makes you closer to the lantern

[boreal river]

It has a weird behaviour

I am not sure what the problem is yet

so I cant describe what I see

I was wondering maybe it has to do with static flags but yes nothing works

because I have occlusion culling

[violet thunder]

Well it seems like some kind of culling problem so occlusion culling might very well be the issue

[boreal river]

I dont think it has to do with occlusion culling because I have it disabled just noticed that

Bro its very very weird what it does let me send you another video

If I am on stand state it works fine but if I crouch it doesn't work.

[clear spoke]

lol ig imma use unity from now

my avg fps on a LOW POLY SMALL MAP

in unrealengine

[sly lake]

Either you screwed up or your hardware is very inadequate for Unreal

[boreal river]

I am making a game in Unreal engine I think you have to reduce or remove assets that you dont need if you have terrain and you draw a lot of plants or whatever that can cause performance issues. On my game I drew 3K plants and my FPS fell to 30-35 from 100 that they were.

I was wondering what is happening

[sly lake]

I don’t think this is a “too many objects” issue 😅

[clear spoke]

i did everything i barely get like 30 on a blank project that has nothing lol

[clear spoke]

yep

[boreal river]

😂

[sly lake]

What hardware? Just curious

[clear spoke]

im in laptop and i dont have a dedicated gpu, i have a built in gpu in my i5 which is already old 😭

[sly lake]

My phone does a better job lol

[clear spoke]

only thing i can play is minecraft cuz it doesnt use gpu it uses cpu 😭

[boreal river]

so ok it has to do with hardware

[sly lake]

Oh yeah, that’ll do it

[boreal river]

its hardware specific the issue

[clear spoke]

lemme give u ss

ts laptop was 700 euros bro

i could buy much more better stuff with 700 euros

i mean its low for a good pc

but like ts isnt real

less than 1 fps in a low poly map is crazy 😭

that map was also like only 300mb and it was LOW POLY BRO

wait

[sly lake]

Yeah don't use Unreal with that

[clear spoke]

this is ram

when i used unity it was so damn smooth i couldnt believe it

but like

i think i might have the same issue when i actually start making stuff

it was smooth only in a blank project

idk

[latent meadow]

not as much(regarding same thing in Unity). Unreal loads the entire pipeline. to put it simply, a high poly map vas a low poly map will have very little performance difference. 100 million vs 50 polygons will have little difference in UE. i will not explain why here, but somethign to know. also, your machine is well below min spec for UE, as mentioned

[sly lake]

1GHz is eh... yeah.

[boreal river]

By they way, what about Unreal Engine to tell you the truth I dont like a lot Unreal Engine, because its completely different eco system from Unity that I have used to working with and I mean the component system and everything are horrible for me. If Unreal was the same as Unity or very similar to then yes. Maybe I am saying this because I didn't got familiar with the engine yet but I hate the way it works.

[clear spoke]

so i should just go with unity right?

[latent meadow]

.. or godot

[sly lake]

If it works for you, sure

But yeah, this laptop is slower than most smartphones and €700 is a lot of money for it 😅

[clear spoke]

i mean i just used both of them for like less than 5 days now so i dont have a problem switching

i used ue more tho but I CANT DO ANYTHING WITH THAT PERFORMANCE

[nova brook]

just learn Unity with small prototypes

[clear spoke]

its asus tho it looks autistic

i mean aesthetic lol

[nova brook]

i quite Godot when i figure out its Limitations

[clear spoke]

i mean it was made in 2021 and purchased in 2022 for 500 euros main price was 700 sum euros

[clear spoke]

i saw some videos i didnt like it but im happy to hear about it

[boreal river]

@clear spoke Stick with Unity you are going to love it

[clear spoke]

bet

[boreal river]

Do not even think starting with Unreal Engine its in my opinion horrible and very advanced

If you are a beginner I mean

[nova brook]

Godot user creates a zone where they introduce their engine like its industry standard at first place i also think that Godot is better than unity but its toy Level engine

[clear spoke]

but lowk if i want to get into the gaming industry not as an indie, like getting a REAL job in a company, specially if the game is 3d the chances are higher that they are using unreal engine right?

[boreal river]

Even if you want to start with Unreal you will have to learn blueprints first cuz C++ is harder than C# you will get confused especially if you lack programming epxerience

[nova brook]

No unity is also industry standard

[sly lake]

Yes.

[clear spoke]

ts is terrifying bro

[nova brook]

Unreal devs demands are higher as AAA games takes much effort

[clear spoke]

two different answers

[boreal river]

@clear spoke If you want an easy to learn environment and programming language basically I would recommend starting with ROBLOX XD

[clear spoke]

which one is the correct one?

[boreal river]

Roblox Studio

Why not

[clear spoke]

i lowk dont play roblox

i downloaded it to play some horror games on it with my friend

[agile vessel]

Hello people

[clear spoke]

i have like 2 hrs of playtime on it

[clear spoke]

idk bro 😭

[nova brook]

[clear spoke]

i feel like unity's the goat

[agile vessel]

[copper gust]

Everything sucks
Use whatever sucks less for you

[agile vessel]

They are

[clear spoke]

huh

[clear spoke]

W comment

this guy is the goat i can tell

imma use unity, much better performance = sucks less for me

bruh i cant send gifs

[nova brook]

Engine are just tools , everything depends upon dev

[clear spoke]

fr and since im the goat i can use everything i want

my game would be automatically good

one last thing

[nova brook]

Then use scratch

[boreal river]

Are you a kid?

[clear spoke]

imagine TWO identical games were made one in ue and the other in unity, everything is the same, which one would get a better fps on gameplay

[clear spoke]

nuh

minor u mean

nah

[boreal river]

16-17?

[clear spoke]

im 19

no

do i talk like a kid

[boreal river]

Oh ok and just starting programming and game dev?

[boreal river]

I d ont know

[clear spoke]

yeah im lowk autistic

[boreal river]

I was just thinking maybe you are

[nova brook]

yeah i think he is exicted about Gamedev

[copper gust]

Probably Unity but depends if the game is doing stuff Unity doesn’t support

[sly lake]

Most game devs are 😏

[clear spoke]

im not diagnosed with autism but i think i am 😭

[boreal river]

My advice is btw

[clear spoke]

like what

[clear spoke]

roblox thingy?

🇺🇸 🦅 🗣️ 🔥

[copper gust]

Game Dev Venn Digram is Autism and Gay. Gotta be comfortable with both if you wanna make games 😅

[nova brook]

@clear spoke Dont see other perpective and dont try to learN every engine also just pick one and start building something by following learning sources

[clear spoke]

every... engine?

ok bet then the question is not which engine i should learn the question IS which engine do i start with lol

i mean lowk im going with unity im just here to talk

[boreal river]

If you just start your carrier in Game Development and Programming, I would recommend not following courses and watching all day tutorials I mean you have to do it at the beginning but do not fall in tutorials hell try experimenting you have watched a tutorial for example try creating something that you have learned in the tutorial or a course. Personally, when I have started my carrier in Unity and Programming 3 years ago I have followed my first course in Unity Learn the Create with Code named if you people know and it was amazing I have made 5 simple prototypes following this course a fruit ninja like, a rolling ball game another one with a character shooting projectiles and a car simulator game.

Start simple

[clear spoke]

my main goal is to make a brainrot game that i cant say probably here

[nova brook]

then dont talk much just learn and start building something

[clear spoke]

its like about a famous person that had an island and "DIED" and now there are some files that are "getting" published

lol

[nova brook]

Yeah follow the rule , WATCH and THEN DO

[boreal river]

With carl

[clear spoke]

why the thumbs down

[nova brook]

why not he is OG

[copper gust]

Not a good nor appropriate thing to joke about

[clear spoke]

bro im lazy and autistic dont except much from me

[clear spoke]

not a joke

my main goal is actually that bro

dw nothing weird or creepy

the main character is called einstein, a german scientist

[boreal river]

I loved him bro the first time I have opened Unity Learn and clicked on this course. This guy did an amazing course, I mean the instruction and everything and of course WATCH then DO was the best advice he could give to beginners.

[clear spoke]

einstein and nikola tesla the goats, they both are going to be in my game, my main focus is einstein tho

[nova brook]

Yeah Super cool course

[clear spoke]

i think einstein was a good friend of donald trump too

[boreal river]

I mean he was explaining so well that I wasn't even bored. It was something new to me and I really had the motivationg to create these games.

[nova brook]

bro thats not a offtopic channel

[clear spoke]

bro this is literally unity talk, im talking about a game that im going to make in unity thats the story

[copper gust]

The name of this channel is bad, this is not intended to be a discussion channel

It’s meant to be for direct, general support for unity

[nova brook]

Yeah i completed unity essential in 8 hours and now i am doing junior programmer and really he is doing an amazing job

[clear spoke]

bro you making things look too srs, dont spike your cortisol bro im not even tryna ragebait and you be ragebaiting lol 😂 ✌️

[agile vessel]

No it's made for people to talk to each other

[copper gust]

It’s meant to be a pretty serious server, primarily just to support unity dev

It’s not particularly a community server persay

[nova brook]

Non-programming Unity topics & questions not covered by specific channels. Any prolonged discussions and game design questions should be threaded ---channel description

[clear spoke]

about the games they make, mine is about einstein

[copper gust]

The description is wrong, i agree that it being wrong is super stupid

Landscape is not hard bro even in unity Terrain is easy to learn

The hardest part is Material Graph

[nova brook]

watch it on 2x you will become a unreal dev in 4min

[clear spoke]

the video is about landscape there are 50 topics in the playlist, are they enough for a beginner

[clear spoke]

bet bro great advice since im lazy too

[clear spoke]

wth is that sir

like perlin noise and shiet

or like the textures nd shiet

i spent more time in fab searching for free assets than the time i spent in the engines lol

but like free assets for unity are much less

or assets in general

fab has 80k for ue but only 13k for unity

is there like other places i can download assets specifically free assets

[craggy pollen]

then you should use ue i guess

[clear spoke]

lol even if i wanted I COULDNT

[clear spoke]

sure bro

whatever u say

takes more than 1 second to fucking do a single shit

[fickle rapids]

does anybody knows why i am getting this error

[celest matrix]

How did you get this fps counter friend

[celest matrix]

Man i wish i could use UE but my laptop sucks so bad

[craggy pollen]

it is probably ue, because of the previous messages

and i wish it suported c# and had decent documentation

[clear spoke]

not worse than me bro

[clear spoke]

built in option

[clear spoke]

what error broski

[clear spoke]

its in ue

its not even 5.x im using 4.27

which the environment looks like the first windows and also it doesnt have built in fab or quixel and ALSO it doesnt have nanite or lumen

ALSO EVERYTHING IS BETTER IN 5.x ONLY THE PERFORMANCE IS WORSE

[fickle rapids]

this

[clear spoke]

i dont know but my friend chatgpt might know lemme show him this

Here’s what the message means:
:mag: What the error is telling you
CS0101: The namespace '<global namespace>' already contains a definition for 'GameObjectData'
This means:
- You have two classes named GameObjectData somewhere in your project.
- They are both in the global namespace (meaning: no namespace { } block).
- C# does not allow two classes with the same name in the same namespace.
Unity detects both definitions and stops compiling.
:white_check_mark: How to fix it
Here’s the exact checklist I’d use:
1. Search your project for duplicate class definitions
In Unity or your IDE (VS, Rider, VS Code):
- Press Ctrl+Shift+F (global search)
- Search for:
class GameObjectData


You will almost certainly find two files that both contain this class.
2. Decide which one should exist
You have three options:
- Delete the duplicate file
- Rename one of the classes
- Move one class into a namespace, e.g.:
namespace MyProject.Data {
    public class GameObjectData { ... }
}


3. Check for .meta leftovers
Sometimes Unity keeps a .meta file for a script you deleted.
If you see a GameObjectData.cs.meta without a corresponding .cs file:
- Delete the orphaned .meta file
- Let Unity reimport
4. Check for auto-generated scripts
If you recently created a script with the same name as an existing one, Unity will generate a new file with the same class name. That’s the most common cause.

If you want, I can help you track down the duplicate quickly — just tell me the names of the scripts you created recently or paste the contents of your GameObjectData files```

[copper gust]

Don’t do this

[clear spoke]

is it illegal or sum

[storm patio]

gotta give some info about your issue, perhaps start with sharing code and what the issue is in #💻┃code-beginner

[nova saddle]

ok

[pure hawk]

im not sure why by changes done in rider dont get saved in unity i have close the project and reopen it

this sems to only happen in version 6000.3.71f 6.3.6.1f

the version before that work fine like 6000.3.5f1

[plain dagger]

Did you change settings relating to recompilation? Also are you on linux?

[pure hawk]

yes on linux but did not change any recompilation

[plain dagger]

haha yea its a common issue that file change detection just doesn't work well on linux.
many people on here have had similar issues

[pure hawk]

is that something added to 6.3.6?

but the one before that works fine

[plain dagger]

I dont know anything more than it being unreliable for linux

VS/rider can tell unity to recompile but thats seperate to file change detection

whyd i get kicked

[agile vessel]

Nice, I'm trying to learn how to use it with rec room studio

[sonic sonnet]

when i apply animation to 3d model and start the project for some reason the object rotates and becomes giant but animation works, what could be the issue?

[plain dagger]

what happens when you preview the animation? I bet the animation is changing scale and rotation

[craggy pollen]

if that only happens when you play the animation, then it must be somethig the animator is controlling and changing

[sonic sonnet]

oh sorry only rotation, object becomes rotated when animation is playing

on x axis

maybe i have to adjust settings in blender before export

[craggy pollen]

do you parent your gameobject to another gameobject, the parent objetc could be the reason, try it with a new gameobject or reset the rotation of the parent

or just unparent them for testing

[sonic sonnet]

yes

animator is applied to Player gameobject

also

Animation type is generic

[plain dagger]

try with Z forward Y up

you can also try using the experimental bake transforms option

[sonic sonnet]

just tried, didn't work

[boreal river]

I was on the Global Game Jam and I saw a kid 16 years old that was making a game in Roblox Studio and he was copy pasting code guys that was incredible. I gave him some advice and tips that this is not fine what he was doing. Like I asked him to answer me a specific question what Local keyword does in Lua and he answered "You know we have global and local so thats what it means" XD

[plain dagger]

Be sure to apply rotation on your model before exporting too

If that doesnt help then ask for more advice on this in #🔀┃art-asset-workflow

[sonic sonnet]

(click on images to see it full)

[plain dagger]

try the "apply transform" tickbox

[sonic sonnet]

i tried that, the issue with this is that the object becomes giant + the rotation issue doesn't get fixed

[plain dagger]

then you correct the import scale

your blender world units are probably already metres which is what unity uses so ensure scale is good there too

scale correction is easier than rotation

[sonic sonnet]

yesterday I did something the rotation was fixed but couldn't fix scale, dang i forgot what i did

[sonic sonnet]

Ah okay so let me explain my workflow.

Basically I have a 3d player model. I export this model from blender (no animations yet). And import in unity.

Then in blender i import animation data to this model and export this modal with animation (idle stance for example). Import to unity then adjust some settings and extract animation and apply to that model with no animation and then this model becomes rotated, but if i use the model with exported animation from blender in unity it's not rotated. If that makes sense.

[flat breach]

hi, is it normal that I can't find explanations on Rpcs and NetworkBool in the fusion 2 photon documentation?

[nova brook]

if you already have knowledge about 2d then try to learn unity netcode

if not then try to learn 2d fundamentals then try to learn multiplayer and networking dont rush on multiplayer if you dont have basic knowledge about 2d or 3d

[storm patio]

https://doc-api.photonengine.com/en/fusion/current/struct_fusion_1_1_network_bool.html

[flat breach]

thank you, I guess they simply haven't added it in the new doc

hi I'm not I understand what => does in variables, from what I understand it's just a way to equal a variable to another?

[storm patio]

no, that's what = is for

what do you mean by "in variables"?

[flat breach]

exactly

[storm patio]

there's like, 4 uses of =>, what are you referring to

[flat breach]

public bool IsGameFinished => GameOverTimer.IsRunning;

[flat breach]

this, these are basically 2 bools

[storm patio]

that's shorthand a readonly property, public bool IsGameFinished { get => GameOverTimer.IsRunning }

[jagged sage]

what the hell does this even mean...

[storm patio]

it means exactly what it says

!input

[vagrant root]

How to Set Input

To set Active Input Handling, go to:
Project Settings > Player > Active Input Handling

• Input Manager (Old): Use the original Input settings.
• Input System Package (New): Uses the new input system package.
• Both: Use both systems.

[flat breach]

this is the GameOverTimer: public TickTimer GameOverTimer { get; set; } , what you mean is the IsGameFinished bool gets the IsRunning bool to eventually set it later and use it?

[storm patio]

no, IsGameFinished is a property, not a field

properties are methods that look like fields
you basically have this:

public bool get_IsGameFinished() {
  return GameOverTimer.IsRunning;
}
```except that to access the value, you don't need to call the method

[jagged sage]

should i use both?

[storm patio]

do you mean using both systems, or setting the active input handling to both

[jagged sage]

setting it to both

[storm patio]

if you're only using 1 system, you should set it to that

[jagged sage]

i mean i have no idea the difference between em

[storm patio]

the old system is Input and Input Manager, the new system is called Input System and all its types are in a separate namespace

[flat breach]

ohhhhhhh okayyyy, so it's kinda equal lol

[storm patio]

it is not

this isn't assignment

IsGameFinished doesn't have its own value

[jagged sage]

ah i see

thanks alot

[flat breach]

but why would I use this then? and how to access the value if I don't need the function?

[storm patio]

the same reason you would have methods, reducing repetition

it gives a simple name to whatever expression is specified

[flat breach]

ohh okay

[flat breach]

thank you so much for helping me

[storm patio]

in the case of GameOverTimer.IsRunning, i don't think it's doing much, but it would definitely help if there's something you have to compute many times used in many places

[storm patio]

and how to access the value if I don't need the function?
no clue what you mean by this tbh

[flat breach]

"except that to access the value, you don't need to call the method" , you said it's the same as a function returning something

[storm patio]

it is, yes

[flat breach]

if I don't need to call the method then how to use it?

in my code, it seems like it doesn't do anything

[storm patio]

these are functionally the same

bool GetSomeValue() { return true; }

Debug.Log(GetSomeValue());
``````cs

bool SomeValue { get { return true; } }

Debug.Log(SomeValue);

[flat breach]

OH okay, so to acess it I just need to specify the property name

tysm

[storm patio]

yeah, as if it were a field

[warm jungle]

what that mean

[long remnant]

Hey, quick Cinemachine 3 question. (edit context 2d camera)
I am trying to make a camera that follows the player only on Y with look ahead and keeps a fixed world-space X (vertical scroller style).

The only solution I have found that actually works is using a "CameraRig" GameObject that follows the player’s Y, with the CinemachineCamera following the rig.

I cannot find any native CM3 way (inspector or scripting API) to lock or constrain a world axis. Most answers online are for the old API.

Is the rig method really the intended CM3 way, or is there a proper built-in or code-driven way to lock world-space X in CM3 that I am missing?

[ember vessel]

hey guys
quick question
i want to have a bunch of raycasts pointing around a object
is there any way to get a vector 3 without trial and error looking at debug ray casts

like its pretty easy to do raycast vector.down but if i wanted to have it 30 degrees to the right and whatnot how could i figure out what vector coordinates i would need to put in

never mind i think ive figured it out

[fickle rapids]

where are you using this technique

[ember vessel]

wdym
i need a little causule ai thing to detect its surroundings so im going to give it a little cone of raycasts pointing to the floor around it
i was going to do it manually but then realised you can use Quaternion.Euler instead

[fickle rapids]

anyone who has faced this question. i am using a class in a script can i use the same class name in other script?

[storm patio]

wdym, what's the issue exactly?

[ashen mica]

You can't create any new input actions maps, if you create one and close/reopen the editor it disappear
Also, the editor don't let you to use the one you create
I think you create it "locally" but not really in the editor
It's not persistant

[violet thunder]

If it is in a different namespace (SomeNameSpace.ChildClass) or nested inside another class (ParentClass.ChildClass) then there's no issue

[storm patio]

ok so this.. is not the input manager

have you saved

[ashen mica]

Yes i've saved, i've posted on the forum another member had the same issues, even if a new project
The bug appear from the last update of input system 1.18
Before that, input was not saved when assigned on prefab, now that is solved this bug appear

[safe arrow]

i'm having an issue that i can't possibly explain the cause of, is it ok if i post my clip of it here for help?

if it's in the wrong channel please tell me

i'm having a weird issue with scriptable objects but only in one thing and i can't really say why

here's the video

here's the part of the code where the comparison happens

i can post it in the right format if it's importnat but i'm not really sure how that would help, since my main concern is how they're all pointing towards the same object yet return false when compared with each other

[violet thunder]

Make it easier for people to help you by explaining the issue properly in text

[safe arrow]

alright

so i have a scriptable object for the item i'm dealing with, and it's referred to in the ItemManager script which is kind of the base for all of these operations

and when the player picks up an item, it is put into their inventory array using the instance from the ItemManager script as the reference

yet when i compare the item within the player's inventory to the item within the ItemManager script by doing Contains(), it returns false for some reason

and i don't think it's broken for any of my other items. i can't say why

if there's any more information about this you need me to give, please say

network stuff is so freaking frustrating, idk how anyone makes online games

[mint lake]

im making one

it's not that bad

just have to change your mindset

and keep progressing

[dusk dock]

I haven't been able to make progress in weeks because I just keep running into wall after wall without being able to find information on how to get around them

[twilit plume]

i swear at some point it was possible to load assetbundles in edit mode

[safe arrow]

i'm just using vscode right now, i thought i had already done that

[twilit plume]

is it still possible to do that

[dusky forum]

You may want to show the lines-methods where you're evaluating contain and adding.

[safe arrow]

yeah

i might not be on for a bit though

i'll get back to you when i can

[storm patio]

if it's properly configured then types should be in green, not blue (at least with the default theme you appear to be using)

[mint lake]

[dusk dock]

idk what to even do anymore

[mint lake]

lol

[storm patio]

anyways @safe arrow consider adding some context to the logs to make sure you're looking at the right object in the inspector, and try logging out the contents of ItemArray

[mint lake]

using mirror lol

[dusk dock]

yeah thats what I'm using

[mint lake]

so what kinda walls do you hit?

[dusk dock]

I think I need to serialize an adressable asset reference to make character selection work but I can't find out how to make the custom read and write functions for that

[flat breach]

hi, why isn't there an explanation on rpcs in the photon fusion 2 documentation?

[mint lake]

wdym, why do you need that?, related to networking or smt?

[mint lake]

idk, let me check

tell the photon guys

[boreal river]

Hey, guys! I know that this doesn't have to do with Unity but probably with Design Patterns, but I have heard this about Model View Controller terminology and I was just wondering what is this in depth? Does anybody know?

[dusk dock]

well I need to get the information on what prefab to spawn from the selection scene to the game scene

[flat breach]

I tried to find for a dc server but couldn't find any

[mint lake]

hmm, i am in it

[storm patio]

the concept of rpcs in general, or the specific usage in photon?

[mint lake]

not sure how i got there

i will let you know

[storm patio]

have you tried googling it
that should be your first step

[mint lake]

so it's related to networking?

[flat breach]

oh lol, could you send me an invite please?

[dusk dock]

yeah that's what I said

[mint lake]

you select a character locally

you want the host or server to know

you can send a string of the GUID

[mint lake]

it doens't allow that

[flat breach]

I've already googled the concept of rpc in general but yea the usage in photon seems to be a little different

[storm patio]

#📗┃quick-links message

[dusk dock]

people here have strongly discouraged me from doing that

[mint lake]

wow nice

[mint lake]

wdym?

if it's one time

it's fine

otherwise a list of all references

and send the index

[dusk dock]

also it would be really messy and bad because I would have to keep a separate dictionary that translates the id into the prefab reference

[boreal river]

Yes I cant understand a lot.

[storm patio]

what parts exactly?

[flat breach]

thankk you so much, once joined should I remove the bot's access to my account?

[flat breach]

dw, I'm in it now

[mint lake]

Cool!

[storm patio]

what bot access

[boreal river]

I think I have to watch a tutorial but if you can explain what Model, View and Controller are I will appreciate that

[storm patio]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model–view–controller

there are so many existing explanations already

use them

[flat breach]

photon engine I think, the link in #📗┃quick-links lets you give access to a bot which then joins servers inclding the photon community one

[dusk dock]

view is what you see, model is the data and controller are the methods that do stuff with the data

[storm patio]

it's an oauth join instead of a server invite?

[nova brook]

I make a pizza which i can throw towards the deer but i set a script that after the pizza and deers leaves game scene view they got destroy, Also there a playercontroller script where when i press spacebar it instantiate pizza but here the twist after adding destroying script pizza no longer spawn by pressing spacebar cs void Update() { if (transform.position.z > exitentity) { Destroy(gameObject); } else if (transform.position.z < lowerbound) { Destroy(gameObject); } }

[flat breach]

yes I think

[storm patio]

well, up to you then i guess

[mint lake]

i have shared you the link in the photon server

[storm patio]

what exactly is the issue? consider using some punctuation

[mint lake]

i think it's best to have a list of asset refs (characters), then just syncing the index will work, i haven't used addressable tho

[nova brook]

PlayerController Script spawn mean instantiate pizza prefab when i press Spacebar , but i apply another script on pizza that it destroy after leaving the Game view -- Now pizza is disappearing when leaving game view but i cant throw more pizzas using spacebar

[storm patio]

ok, now that's some useful information

sounds like you're using a gameobject in the scene to instantiate instead of a prefab...

[mint lake]

lol

[dusk dock]

then I have to keep a separate dictionary with every reference that has to be amended manually for every character added to the game, in addition to the character select menu and the prefabs list, which also have to be amended manually. it would be very bad

[storm patio]

you destroyed the base pizza, and then you try to clone it

[mint lake]

make an SO

with a list, just one list bro

[dusk dock]

same problem, I can't serialize that

[mint lake]

what can't be serialized?

[nova brook]

Mean i add prefab pizza in scene and what about the main gameobject pizza

[dusk dock]

asset reference

[mint lake]

so how do you do it for UI then

[dusk dock]

wdym

[charred fog]

Haven't we've been over this already? You should re-read the original advice people gave you.

[storm patio]

what do you mean by "main gameobject pizza"

[nova brook]

which is already in scene

[dusk dock]

I did, it doesn't work because I can't serialize the asset reference

[mint lake]

why would you need a dictionary also btw?

[dusk dock]

to translate some serializable id into an asset reference

[storm patio]

that would just be the one in the scene, it wouldn't be the "main" one

what exactly are you asking

[charred fog]

#💻┃code-beginner message

And the part where you reference by id

[mint lake]

can;t you have a [SerializedField] List<AssetReferenceGameObject> AllMyChsracters;,

[nova brook]

no how can i destroy prefab pizza instead of Gameobject pizza

[storm patio]

you wouldn't

that's deleting a file

do you know what a prefab is

[dusk dock]

no AssetReferenceGameObject can't be serialized

[dusk dock]

but then I have to manually keep a separate dictionary to look up the ids

[charred fog]

@dusk dock No need to go over this again. This is not how networking referencing done.

You have identical list of asset references, this is how any of the participants know what to instantiate

Do literally any networking tutorial

They explain how to network instantiate prefabs

[carmine wyvern]

That's a solid point. Adding specific labels to logs or even using 'Debug.LogFormat' can save a lot of time. Also, checking the length of the 'ItemArray' before logging its content might help avoid those annoying NullReference exceptions.

[nova brook]

i forget to assign throwable lol

[worldly cave]

Did bro write his response with ai

[storm patio]

is this some chatbot again

[worldly cave]

within cells interlinked

[storm patio]

i think interpolated strings have well superceded format strings in c#

[mint lake]

it can be, so what i said applies, a list, and just sync the index

[dusk dock]

but how?

[mint lake]

public List<AssetReferenceGameObject> MyChars;

nothing complicated

just the normal stuff

[dusk dock]

Unity says "Mirror.Weaver.ILPostProcessorHook: (0,0): error AssetReferenceGameObject can't be deserialized because it has no default constructor. Don't use AssetReferenceGameObject in [SyncVar]s, Rpcs, Cmds, etc. (at UnityEngine.AddressableAssets.AssetReferenceGameObject)"

[mint lake]

you soo funny

who told you to do syncvar?

come on bro

[dusk dock]

its not a syncvar

I'm trying to send a network message because that's what the mirror manual says to do

[mint lake]

you can't send the list, what are you sending, lets talk in mirror

[carmine wyvern]

lol chill bro, i'm a real person. just habit of typing like a pro i guess. currently coding on my pc, so keeping it quick.

[mint lake]

make a thread in mirror, im COMing, and ping me

[nova brook]

No Problem bro

[shadow heron]

I've been interested in making my own projectile trajectory, I made one with the line renderer but didn't like how it looked. Is it possible to make one with actual sphere's?

[potent geyser]

Why not?

[shadow heron]

Fair Point, how would I approach it in my game though? My game is a 3D platformer but its at a side view and there are no restrictions (player can move in any direction).

[potent geyser]

You said you did it already with a line renderer, which means you've generated the points. Use those points and place spheres instead.

Or a nicer solution would get the Shapes plugin and use that instead.

[shadow heron]

wait wdym shapes plugin? can I use shapes with the line renderer?

[potent geyser]

No, you'd use the points you've used.

But the shapes plugin gives you nice options for dotted lines and such

[empty hamlet]

Question so when I try to go to C# when going to create there’s no option to go to there anybody know why? Wasn’t sure what channel to ask this for

[worldly cave]

wdym?

like you dont see an option to create a monobehavior script in your project?

[empty hamlet]

Yeah

I think

[worldly cave]

i mean

[empty hamlet]

therss just no C# option

[worldly cave]

like the right click context menu doesnt show anything regarding c# or monobehavior?

[empty hamlet]

here ill send a screen shot of the thing

i mean theres a monobehavior thing

[empty hamlet]

i just have no idea what dat is until you just talked about it

resetting it to your nick for now

aight 👍

[shadow heron]

I would like to do it by code instead. I have got this idea where the white circle follows the mouse have to points one at the player and the other above the white circle and fill in the empty space with the spheres. Is this a good idea? I have been fidling around with the line renderer and I can't get it to look the way I want it to look.

[fleet canopy]

there’s not much context for what you’re making but maybe https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/Vector3.MoveTowards.html (bryn)

[nova brook]

Oh i figure it out

[fleet canopy]

There’s also https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/Transform.LookAt.html

[storm patio]

or you might want to just utilize one of the direction vectors of the transform. you need to provide much more context if you want to receive effective help

[agile vessel]

[storm patio]

please do not spam.

[thorny charm]

dont have time

can you help tommorrow

[storm patio]

just ask when you do have time

don't single people out for help, it doesn't particularly make us want to help

[thorny charm]

ok bro, you responded so i thought maybe you were willing

thats why i asked

[nova brook]

Don't ask other for help .. mean asking someone to help in creating or devolping something just learn basic start creating and then whenever you stuck just ask for help try to figure out problems ...in this way you learn and also make more better projects

[potent geyser]

So you don't have the actual points yet. Look up the equation or a tutorial on calculating trajectory. Wanting to use spheres or a line renderer has nothing to do with the first step of actually have the math down.

Once you actually have the curve, sample it to make the visuals however you want, such as spawning spheres along it.

[wet valve]

got a little question - i'm working on a project and am looking @ a custom build setup

just a pre-bundle task that saves the project

[storm patio]

please just ask your question with the context attached, no need to space this out in multiple messages

[wet valve]

sorry, a habit of the way i message people. just wondering what the idiomatic way to set up a custom build event that saves the scene before building the asset bundles would be

alternatively direction to some easy-to-understand documentation for asset building setups please and thank you

actually there are better places to put this than #💻┃unity-talk, my apologies

[ashen mica]

any idea how i can fix this ?

[vivid cedar]

open the actual input action asset instead of doing it from this menu

i need someone's help

ican't download a unity editor

please can i dm somebody and go in a cal??\

[storm patio]

no, ask here about your issue

[blazing wigeon]

when i try to download an editor it always say's failed to verify or out of stock and now it's giving me this it's stuck at this loading menu i've been trying to download unity for 3 months by now mate i swear the god

someone please help[ me i'm tired of this shit

[undone quarry]

I guess u have bad internet

[blazing wigeon]

i think this internet is enough no?\

[storm patio]

for the "failed to verify" thing, see below

!install

[vagrant root]

When Unity fails to install checklist

• Make sure you have enough space including on C: drive.
• Check that it's not being blocked by antivirus/security programs.
• Look through the logs for a real reason why the setup fails they are pinned [here](#💻┃unity-talk message).

If you still have issues, perform a clean install in another location:

• Install the Hub and Unity in a non-system drive or a clean new folder in the root of C: drive.
• Failing that use the recovery Refresh option or reinstall OS entirely then repeat the previous step.

[storm patio]

for the hub not loading, check logs

!logs

End task and restarting hub works. I hardly get problem like this

[blazing wigeon]

i've tryed thoes solutions all of them

[placid yew]

Hey guys! Writing an editor tool and was wondering where I can find how I could display in editor how unity's directory system displays different types of assets? My assumptions are that unity just does this by looking at the main asset type and finding the corresponding image icon, which can is done with UI toolkit if I'm not msitaken? I've heard that the unity editor has since abandoned IMGUI and moved onto UI Toolkit for its editor interfaces

[nova brook]

Download editor from Archive Unity Download website it's the same editor just after installation you need to locate it

[storm patio]

don't you need to then download modules from there instead of using the hub

the hub is the recommended option

[hardy wave]

it took me a long time too, i downloaded mirror for unity, and had to write my own script.

[blazing wigeon]

can you showme how to do that?

i'm tired of this shit man i can't get an editor for my unity it's been 3 months

[balmy kettle]

What did the logs say when you looked through them to see why it failed?

[pure igloo]

is anyone here familiar with how the particle system collision/trigger detection happens?

[balmy kettle]

https://dontasktoask.com

[dusk dock]

yeah me too, but I'm slowly figuring it out I think. It's just every new question I run into makes me feel so stupid

[hardy wave]

me too! lol. its alright, programming is hard

s1nth i know the basics of oncollision2d

[pure igloo]

"You're questioning people's confidence in their abilities." sry did not realise this. I just want my one particle to detect when it's colliding with a box collider and get it to OnTriggerEnter to work

[hardy wave]

i only know scripts though.

[pure igloo]

i have asked a bunch of people in here over the last 3 days but i just can't seem to get it to work

[balmy kettle]

Show code

And of course the relevant objects

[pure igloo]

wait, let me link them

[storm patio]

wasn't it OnParticleTrigger

i remember linking that to you

[pure igloo]

ya mb

[hardy wave]

||private void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D collision) { // collide with creature if (collision.GetComponent<Creature>()) { something...||

[pure igloo]

it doesn't work apparently

[storm patio]

have you set it to use callbacks

[pure igloo]

i am doing smth wrong rly wrong

[storm patio]

actually just show code/setup, rather than this 20 questions lol

[hardy wave]

object needs boxcollider component

yeah you need to show what you got :)

[pure igloo]

wait, my game is loading

it takes a lot of time

i will be sending out a burst or images...just saying that before

[storm patio]

might get automodded for that

[dusk dock]

are you moving the object with physics or by translation?

maybe you want to make a post in code-general

i'm going to beat the concept of a switch into yanderedev with a switch

why is my inspector on unity showing this

now its this

[plain dagger]

bottom pic is just what it shows when nothing is selected 😆

dont worry about it

Hopefully the term "inspector" informs you what the window does

[deft creek]

that just does not help

[subtle owl]

The best solution here is using "switch()", my advise.

[balmy palm]

Oh yeah. That definitely looks like someone could really use a switch stamenet.

[flat breach]

yes, sorry I didn't see

[gray frigate]

you have nothing selected

therefore, there is nothing to show
