Technical requirements

The following chapter is hands-on, so you will need to have a basic understanding of Unity and C#.

We will be using the following Unity-specific engine and C# language concepts:

  • Statics
  • Generics

If unfamiliar with these concepts, please review Chapter 3, A Short Primer to Programming in Unity.

The code files of this chapter can be found on GitHub, at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Game-Development-Patterns-with-Unity-2021-Second-Edition/tree/main/Assets/Chapters/Chapter16.
