Unity Tutorial 02

 

Plane Propeller Link


For this week's lab work, we are instructed to finish the last lesson of our first Unity tutorial and do the first challenge about Plane Programming. 

  • Describe what you have learned from the Lesson 1.4: Step into The Driver's Seat?
From the last lesson 1.4 of the car game, I learned how to add speed on the vehicle by using positive and negative input. For example: if you multiply the speed on a positive unit, the Vehicle with move forward if you press the "up" arrow button on your keyboard and it will move backwards if it is multiplied to a negative unit. I also learned how to rotate the vehicle from left to right by following the same formula as the speed.

I also have to watch the previous tutorial because some of the obstacle objects are not fixed on the ground and when I play the game, they keep falling even before the Vehicle could touch them. Fortunately, I found out why it kept happening, it was because I forgot to drag the obstacle on the mesh collider.
  • What you have enjoyed/found difficult?
What I enjoyed in this week's tasks is that I was able to play the game after all the hard work I did. It feels good when you make everything work and all the effort was worth it. I was having difficulty figuring out the last two challenge of Plane Programming. It took me a while how to make the camera follow the plane and I also looked up how to make the propeller spin at the end.
  • What you are looking forward to?
I am looking forward to learning more programming skills so that I could apply it to my game.

Twitter List!

Lee jong Suk giving you flowerrrsss Hi guys! How are you doing? I tried to create a List on Twitter. Link to an external site I have never created a Twitter List before so it is a new experience. I also think that this will be useful to me especially in the future as I want to explore more about animators and designers and learn from them. I also think that creating a list of specific topics would help you to find them easily and it is more organized.

Unity Tutorial 04

This week's tutorial lesson was very straightforward and easy to follow. I also did not have any problem with the Unity tutorial videos and the software this time which I am really glad about. I learned how to apply codes that can destroy the objects when the collision is detected. I also know how to add the "Game Over" message in coding if the farmer missed feeding one of the animals. The tutorial lesson also taught us how to spawn the animals at timed intervals so that the animals will appear randomly on the game. Here are the things that I learned for this week's Unity tutorial: Lesson 2.4 New functionality: Animals are spawned on timed interval and walk down on the screen and the animal gets past the player without getting fed, there's a "Game Over" trigger massage at the left bottom of the screen. When the projectile and animal collide, objects are removed right away. New Concepts/Skills: Create custom methods/functions InvokeRepeating() to repeat c...

Feedback Stretegies

  Feedforward The first article that I read is called "Try Feedforward Instead of Feedback" by Marshall Goldsmith. He talks about how feedforward is more helpful than getting feedback. I learn that getting a feedback can have a negative effect to the person who is receiving it because they tend to get personal on their suggestions which some people cannot take. This is when Feedforward enters. Feedforwards is all about people listening to suggestions for the future then learn and help as much as they can. There are also eleven reasons to try Feedforward, but I will be only addressing some of them that I find personally works. 1. We can change the future. We can't change the past. Feedforward helps people focus on a positive future and not a failed past. This means that people who use feedforward does not concentrate on the mistakes of what the other person have, instead they give them advices on how to improve their work better for the future. I also think that giving peo...
