Whether you are new to C# or a seasoned developer just starting with Unity, you may find it difficult to use C# in Unity because: - You are new to C#. - You already have some coding experience in C# but you may find that many concepts in Unity (e.g., components) are different from working in straight C# code. - You have started coding in C# but you would like more examples specific to C# with Unity, including advanced features. The thing is, regardless of the game that you want to create with Unity, if you want to harness the power of this game engine you will need to understand C#. Use this in-depth Resource to Truly Master C# and Unity You may be able to "slap" some code together to get the job done, but you may wish you could understand the code in more depth and be able to come-up with your own code that scales-up painlessly; and this makes sense because if you truly want to create code that is efficient, scalable, and that leverages all the features available in Unity, you will probably need to learn C# in more depth, but also to understand how it can be combined to Unity's built-in libraries properly. There are plenty of resources out there; however very few explain C# in the context of Unity; and although they may provide code solutions, they may not give in-depth explanations on the C# concepts and the design ideas behind the code, or explain how the code can be optimized, so that you can avoid issues linked to memory or maintainability down the line. This is the reason why I have created this book. The idea behind its design is to provide a resource for different types of readers (i.e., beginner, intermediate or advanced programmers), to explain C# concepts in-depth, in the context of Unity, and to provide practical information and step-by-step instructions. This book was created to answer frequently-asked questions about C# programming for Unity. It includes over 300 pages of step-by-step instructions to help you become more proficient in C# for Unity. After reading this book, you should be able to (1) Understand C# and Object-Oriented Programming in-depth, (2) apply these concepts in Unity and implement common game mechanics through the built-in classes available in Unity, and (3) optimize your code so that it is easy to maintain. Find the Solution to your Problems in this 300-page Guide After using this book you will be able to solve your C# headaches. Each chapter can be read independently so that you can find and apply the solutions to a specific problem immediately. - Chapter 1 explains C# concepts in depth so that you can become proficient in C# programming and Object-Oriented concepts (e.g., inheritance, constructors, polymorphism, overloading, overriding, etc.) - Chapter 2 shows you how to code and debug C# scripts along with some best practices that will keep your code clean and bug-free. - Chapter 3 explains key concepts in linear algebra so that you can understand and use vectors in Unity (e.g., dot products for vision). - Chapter 4 acts as a cook book where you will find sections that explain how key (and frequently used) methods and C# classes can be employed to improve your gameplay, and you can go directly to the section that you need for your game (e.g., audio, detection, user-inputs, reading files, etc) and find both explanations and code examples that you can use immediately. - Chapter 5 shows you how to optimize your code and to structure it so that it is easier to maintain using component-based programming, design patterns and useful structures such as delegates or coroutines. - Chapter 6 answers Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) related to C#. If you want to solve your C# programming headaches and to really understand how C# and Unity work together effectively, download this book now.

Why this book can help you to create games that are more fun and challenging Creating a game that is both fun and challenging, and that players will love, can be very difficult, regardless of your experience in game programming. This is because a player often needs to be constantly challenged, yet not frustrated with your game. This is a very challenging balance to reach; however, by including artificial intelligence to your game, and some very simple principles, you can manage to make the game fun, and the Non-Player Characters (NPC) more realistic, by making sure that they behave in a way that will challenge the user. Regardless of your background, you will always need to use some of these techniques, because good AI can really make a difference between a boring game and an exciting game that the players will want to play for hours. Thankfully, you can easily overcome these issues and start to implement interesting AI with a step-by-step approach that gets you to progressively develop your knowledge and mastery of Artificial Intelligence with Unity. This is the approach that I have used successfully over the past years to help students create 3D games that are both challenging and addictive, thanks to a well-designed Artificial Intelligence using Unity and C#. By following the techniques and suggestions described in this book, I can promise you that you will manage to create some very challenging games with NPCs that are smart, believable, and more importantly, challenging to the player. Content and structure of this book In this book, the first in the series called "Unity from Proficiency to Mastery", you will learn and apply several AI techniques for 3D games, and make it possible for NPCs to: Navigate the scene (e.g., using a random or set path). Sense the world around them (e.g, hear, smell, or see). Take smart decisions based on their senses or current state (e.g., look for ammunition or health when these run low). React to the players' moves (e.g., set an ambush, follow and attack the player, or flee). Along the way you will also learn other useful skills and concepts such as: Finite-State Machines in Unity, Animator Controllers, 3D character animation, Navigation costs and areas State Behaviors, Group movement, Melee combat, and much more... The main idea behind this book is to help you to apply common AI techniques with Unity and C# to make your game more challenging and fun to play. The content of each chapter is as follows: Chapter 1 shows you how to create a simple AI for your 3D games with no coding involved; Chapter 2 shows you how to create different types of navigation for your NPCs, including set paths, random paths, and wandering aimlessly. Chapter 3 shows you how to add senses to the NPC so that they can detect targets and take decisions accordingly. Chapter 4 shows how to make it possible for the NPCs to take more sensible decisions based on the environment and their own state. Chapter 5 shows how to implement group behaviors for NPCs. You will learn how to create a group of NPCs that follow the order of the player (e.g., follow the leader, attack targets or withdraw from the battle) and to create a team of NPCs led by the computer; Chapter 6 provides answers to frequently-asked questions. If you want to start creating fun and challenging 3D games using a tried-and-tested method: download this book now!

Newly Edited and Updated Version Master Artificial Intelligence with Unity Without this book, most people spend too long trying to create NPCs (non-player character) that behave like a real person the hard way. This book is the only one that will get you to create intelligent NPCs that can think and make decisions without wasting so much time. It includes six chapters that painlessly teach you the necessary skills to get started and master Artificial Intelligence with Unity and implement key AI techniques that you need to create entertaining games with believable and intelligent NPCs. What you will learn After completing this book, you will be able to create more entertaining and fun games with intelligent and believable NPCs who can: - Follow the player and avoid obstacles. - Follow a specific path, or roam aimlessly. - Detect the player through their senses (e.g., hearing, smell, visions). - Make smart decision based on their state (e.g., health or ammos) to either attack the player, collect ammos and health packs, or flee. - Set-up an ambush to capture the player. - Act as a group (i.e., army) and follow the orders of the player or another NPC leader (e.g., attack the other team or withdraw from the battle) Content of the book The content of the book is as follows: - Chapter 1 shows you how to create NPCs who can follow the player while avoiding obstacles or pre-defined areas (e.g., jump between platforms or avoid water). - In Chapter 2 you will learn how to make your NPCs navigate the level by following set or random paths, or wandering aimlessly. - In Chapter 3 you will add senses to the NPCs so that they can detect the player and take smart decisions accordingly. - In Chapter 4, you will make it possible for the NPCs to take more sensible decisions based on the environment and their own state. For example, NPCs may choose to refill ammunition rather than following the player, or they might decide to look for health packs when their health runs low. - In Chapter 5 you will create two teams; one controlled by the player, and the other once controlled by another NPCs. These two teams will then engage in a battle and both the player and the NPC leader will be able to control their team asking them to attack or withdraw from the battle; - Chapter 6 provides answers to frequently-asked questions.
