lesson

Let's add an idle animation to our Mousey charactert to make it look more animated!

lesson

In this lesson we will learn how to create a NavMesh

lesson

Using Unity's built-in navigation system you can create NPCs (non -player characters) that will move around your game world intelligently. That is to say that the navigation system gives characters the ability to navigate your gameworld and avoid obstacles.

lesson

In this module, we will be creating a system for a NPC (non-player character) to work around the game world intelligently using Unity's navigation system.

lesson

Colliders are invisible shapes on 3D objects that handle collisions. A collider can be added to a GameObject as a component, just like the Rigidbody component.

lesson

You might hear the word "physics" thrown around a lot in game development, so let's go over what physics means in Unity. In the real world, objects are affected by gravity, friction, collisions, weight etc. Likewise in a game, objects are also affected by the forces of physics.

lesson

In this module we'll be learning about a few fundamental concepts such as Rigidbody and colliders, which will assist us in making our character move. We'll also learn how to add animations to our character.

lesson

The transform component is attached to every object in Unity. The transform components hold the x, y and z values for the position, rotation and scale properties of an object in respect to the game world co-ordinate system, or the parent object of child components.

lesson

Understanding vectors is useful before we start making games. A vector is basically a quantity which has a direction. Vectors are useful and are used a lot in Unity. They're used to store the x, y and z values of components such as transform, rotation and scale. We cannot store these values together in a general variable. We need to use vectors for that.

lesson

C# is an Object-Oriented Programming language in which the programmer can develop software in modules. This is accomplished through treating data as **objects**. A class is like a blueprint or template of a specific object in which its properties, fields, events and methods are specified.

lesson

A function groups together code statements to perform a specific task. Whenever a function is called, all the code statements inside that function will execute.

lesson

You can execute a statement or block of code multiple times using loops. This is called iteration.
