This week was my first experience with Unity as I never used it before. Overall, I have to say that tutorials are easy and straight forward to follow, I enjoyed it e learned a lot, although it did not take me 200 minutes (about 3 and a half hours), I would say I have spent around 6 hours on it. 

I have learned some basics as how to position vehicles and obstacles in the game and the basics of Unity layout. I also learned how to position the main camera in the game, but it is where some questions raised. Positioning the camera where I want it to be is the trickiest thing for me now and, I found quite difficult to navigate the objects in the game, I also messed up with my vehicle and now It dives for some reason instead of going along the road. I am going to bring all these questions to the Lab and hope to seek for help to solve the issues. 

The easiest thing for me was to understand the code as I really enjoy coding so it was easy to understand, I also could not clone the obstacles in the same way as it was in tutorials, I was able to duplicate them, but they disappeared in the window after. 

So far, all instructions are clear, but the result I got in my Hub needs attention which I hope to resolve in the Lab. 

Also, I did not understand how to save each lesson separately as I was using the same prototype all the time, but so far It is an exciting software, and I am willing to spend more time on learning it in depth.

It was a code which allows the player to des troy targets with click and sensor which is quite handy for my game as the player in my game should  destroy  its targets as well. I could not figure out at first how to approach the fact that my player had to collect its targe ts so I used the code from Unity 5 , it did not work the way I wanted but I used some i...

  my image In this week tutorials everything went well, and I created collectable items, only one now, but I have a good idea how to add more. I found the way to add assets that you are going to use multiply times to Prefab very handy as you. Do not need to create the same settings repeatedly . The same was my enemy was created.   So far everything is clear and straight forward, although I had one issue at the end of the game, which I tried to fix myself. When Ruby meets her enemy, she can move it and I googled this issue and I found a solution, so you must change Dynamic to Kinematics in Enemy and then everything sorted, but when I changed then collecting strawberries became extremely difficult so not sure if it has anything to do with it and when I switched back to Dynamic it works fine, mystery it is.   All tutorials are clear and great to. follow. I will ask a question during the next lecture so hopefully can fix a little issue I had.   Look forward to next we...

I am from Moscow, Russia, but have been living in Ireland for the last 20 years. Studying at The Third Level was always my dream, but I had to wait for the right moment. My son was a professional tennis player and It was a full time job for me, so I said to myself, when I am free , I am studying and here I am in TU Dublin and I love it. Hope you will enjoy my blog and I will learn how to do it properly. I am a very creative person and have lots of hobbies, not sure whether it is a good or bad thing ;) My main hobby is learning new things, that is probably why CDM was my choice. I love photography and believe I am pretty good at th...
