Unity tutorial

1. Inspector - Some components

Transform

• transform settings

MeshFilter

• renders something different than default mesh

MeshRenderer

• settings for that render (texture,light...)

BoxColider

• collision settings

2. Materials

• Create subfolders in Assets folder

• create some materials (RC -> new material)

• drag it to some model

    MeshRenderer -> Materials -> Element 0 is now this material
  

3. Navigation

• ALT + LEFT MOUSE : rotate around
• SHIFT + MIDDLE MOUSE : pan around
• MOUSE WHEEL : zoom
• SELECT OBJ + F : focus on object
• SELECT OBJ + CTRL + D : copy object
• CTRL + slide : snap object movement
• ALT + click on element in high. : hide/expand children

4. Hierarchy

• PICK B -> DROP ON A : A is parent of B

    You can now move B (child) independently, but not A.
    B is shown in inspector IN RELATIVE POSITION to parent.
  

5. Prefabs

• Create subfolder Prefabs

• PICK A -> DROP IN FOLDER : A is now PREFAB

    In hierarchy, that object is now blue (prefab).
  

• PICK prefab -> DROP TO SCENE : new objects are now new prefabs

Organization

• Create empty object for your prefabs (put position to 000)

Editing prefabs (double click prefab)

• remove unnecessary Box Coliders from children

Overriding:

• if you change something on a prefab instance, it will turn bold. Right click for revert/apply to all instances
• on parent -> Overrides it shows list of all overrides

6. Add player & physics

• create capsule
• Add component -> RigidBody
