This is not for a component, but for the instance of the gameObject in the hierarchy. When I select it and go to the inspector, there is no way to deactivate it.

The only way to get the box to show up is to select *two* gameObject instances at the same time. But then I have to deactivate a...

Just Archimedes' law:



Requires a collider and rigidbody components.

P.S.
I've updated the script:
1) The old one didn't take into account object rotation and consequently produced wrong results sometimes.
2) The new one draws nice gizmos

P.P.S.
Version 2.1

1. I decided to not calculate density from volume, because volume "calculation" itself is quite inaccurate. It's easer to specify the correct density manually.
2. Now it works with concave...

Vegetation Studio Features
We are happy to introduce Vegetation Studio, coming to Unity Asset Store this fall.

Vegetation Studio is a vegetation placement and rendering system designed to replace the standard tree and detail system in the Unity terrain component. Vegetation is spawned on the terrain based on a flexible set of rules, and controlled with both texture and polygon masks.

Use your existing trees (SpeedTree, Tree Creator etc.), rocks and grass textures....

So if game project become bigger, script's number become more, code line become longer.

And to access to other script, Somescript.Instance.somevarOrFunction method is well used.
Isn't it? Are there more neat and nicer way?

Problem is, if project bigger and complicated, there become many .Instance codes appeared.

This can hurt readability of code. Any solutions?

Turbo Platform Switch (TPS)

Why use Turbo Platform Switch?
When working on a multi-platform project in Unity, you often have to switch between platforms to test compatibility, see if things work as intended, and tweak things on each and every platform.

The larger your project gets, the longer the switch time becomes. It can become a serious setback in your development process.

Normally, when making simple small games I create a 'Game' script that handles everything.

On my larger projects, I tend to create a lot of small scripts, but lately I've been thinking I should add them all to 1 'Game' script as I'm now starting to struggle to find where things are in my scripts.

So I'm just wondering what you guys do?

I'm trying to write a C# script and I keep getting an annoying warning that I assigned a var but never use it, but I do use it. Still the error persists.

Code (CSharp):

2.         //In update  
3.         int testVar = 0;
4.         testVar = 0; //Stupid error that it is never used
5.

Bad Word Filter (BWF)

The "Bad Word Filter" (aka profanity or obscenity filter) is exactly what the title suggests: a tool to filter swearwords and other "bad sentences".

There are multiple uses for the "Bad Word Filter" in your game, but the three most obvious would be user names (e.g. for high-scores), in a chat within the game and character names.

If you don't want some...

Hi, have been testing some forest rendering with DrawMeshInstancedIndirect with good result, but need to do frustum culling to make it perform as good as possible with shadows.

I take it you could use a compute shader to calculate the visible objects. Not that familiar with how to go about that though. Anyone have an example of working with result buffers from compute shaders or if you have done frustum culling that would be really appreciated.

Cheers

True Random

Why use True Random?
“True Random” can generate random numbers for you or your game. They are “truly random”, because they are generated with atmospheric noise, which supersedes the pseudo-random number algorithms typically use in computer programs.

People use True Random for holding drawings, lotteries and sweepstakes, to drive online games, for scientific applications and for...

Hey everyone,

usually, it took about 1-2 minutes to build the usual scenes in my project (3 scenes, ~1.5GB final build size, hardware: I7 CPU@3.40 GHz, 8GB RAM). Now, after upgrading to Unity 5.6, it takes about 20 minutes. Most of the build time is taken by globalgamemanagers.assets (~14 min) and resources.assets (~6 min). Something seems to be pretty wrong here. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no idea what's causing this explosion of build time.

I have been trying to export an Google Android Project from Unity so I can integrate an external library with Gradle.

I am using :
- Unity 5.4 Beta 18 OSX
- Android Studio 2.1.1

I had first attempted to use Unity 5.3.4 & 5.3.5 but it was crashing on launch in what appeared to be an issue with the Unity IAP export when building a Google Android Project. A bit of research lead me to believe that the issue was resolved in the latest 5.4 Beta, however now I am getting a Multiple define error...
