Unity 2021 Use Scriptable Object instead of Enum

Video Description

"Why can't I create Enum values from all of my weapon in my prefab folder?!" -me few years ago When I was learning how to use Enums in Unity I knew that they are meant to represent state of something ex player has a WeaponType.Sword. This was wrong thinking. While they are good to represent ex cardinal directions (assuming that no one will add more) adding new enum for a new weapon type or anything that is certain to change / grow is not the way. Scriptable objects (and a bit of Object Oriented design) are. Let me show you why :) Reference "Unite Austin 2017 - Game Architecture with Scriptable Objects": https://youtu.be/raQ3iHhE_Kk Learn to write more maintainable code using Design patterns by making a 2d platformer game: https://courses.sunnyvalleystudio.com/ Project files for Patreons: https://www.patreon.com/posts/58777788 Have any questions?
