FUNCTIONS Function / Method: A group of code that can run Save. Game Do. Damage Functions execute code once each time the function is called Function body: Calling a function:

FUNCTIONS void On. Hit() void On. Hit(int damage) Code inside Function just executes the function reduces health int Get. Enemy. Count() int Searches the map for enemies and returns the # Code inside the function reduces Function executes AND Needs Input health by <damage> int Double. Value(int value) int Function executes AND returns value int Code inside the function Function executes AND needs input doubles <value> and returns it

CODE GROUPING In C#, all code is grouped, and sub-grouped. For this we use curly brackets. { = opening curly bracket } = closing curly bracket My. Game Program My. Function My. Other. Function

CREATING & ADDING SCRIPTS TO GAME OBJECTS Start, Update (+ Awake, Fixed. Update, . . . ) On. Trigger. Enter, On. Trigger. Exit Instantiating & Destroying Game. Objects from scripts Accessing variables from the Editor (public, private, serializable)

TIME. DELTATIME Time. delta. Time = time between updates Update() has a variable. Time. delta. Time Fixed. Update() has a fixed Time. delta. Time 5 FPS = 5 Frames per Second 60 FPS = 60 Frames per Second

RIGIDBODY Collisions & Triggers Physics using Rigidbody & Add. Force On. Trigger. Enter and On. Trigger. Exit

CHARACTER CONTROLLER Using a Character Controller to control and move a character

INPUT Detecting Player. Input (Mouse movement and Key presses)
