I’ve updated my base code<\/a> to add a basic menu system. It’s in “Menu.cs” and “menu.unity” contains a very simple example. The rest has also been auto-ported to Unity 5.<\/p>\n

Use the Menu.Add[…] members to add items, and call Enable\/Disable to, well, enable and disable it. Items can either be “buttons”, like “Quit” or “Go Back”, or they can be a list you scroll through. Think the menus in Doom, but less advanced.<\/p>\n

Default keys are arrows, and space to activate button items.<\/p>\n

As with the rest of the repo, anyone can use it for anything.<\/p>\n

Oh, to view the tile map sample code, load “tileMap.unity”; confused me earlier by not being the default. “test.unity” adds an overabundance of children to some game objects, which will probably grind everything to a halt if you click play.<\/p>\n

Update update – 19th August 2015<\/b>
\n Just in time for LD33 I’ve updated the base code to add pathfinding and lighting, and tidy it up a little. See the readme on GitHub for details, and a bit of info about things to look out for (don’t enable Unity’s anti-aliasing!).<\/p>","time":"April 17th, 2015 6:22 pm","title":"Base code update: basic menu system, Unity 5."}
