What will we create?

We will create a Point & Click Adventure Game

in 6 phases
In each phase we will create a specific system for
the game as if we were working in a games studio
By the end of the day we will have presented all the
major systems for this game
Unite 2016 - Training Day
What will we create?

The Point & Click Adventure Game has been

designed to a level beyond most tutorial projects
This project is rated as intermediate in both
concept and execution
In this tutorial we will cover the most important
points of the project in lecture.

Delegate, Events and Lambda Expressions

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
1. Please import the Asset Store package:

Delegates

1. Delegates are variables that can store functions

instead of data

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Delegates

1. Delegates are variables that can store functions

instead of data

2. The basic Action is a specific type of Delegate that

represents a function that returns void and has no
parameters

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Delegates

1. Functions are stored in delegates as follows:

void MyFunction ()
{
}

Action myAction = MyFunction;

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Delegates

1. The functions stored in delegates can be called as

follows

myAction();

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Delegates
1. Actions also come in generic types

Action<int> myIntegerAction;

2. The above Action can store a function that returns void and takes in a
single integer parameter as below

public void MyFunction (int myInt)
{
}

Action<int> myIntegerAction = MyFunction;

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Delegates

1. One of the most important things about delegates is

that they are stored like variables, as such they can
be passed to functions like a variable
public void MyFunction (Action myActionFunction)
{
}

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Delegates

1. A delegate can be subscribed to by using the +=

operator and unsubscribed from using the -=
operator

myAction += MyFunction;
myAction -= MyFunction;

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Events

1. Note that the events we are about to discuss are C#

events which have nothing to do with the Event System
in Unity and are solely a scripting feature

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Events

1. A delegate can be used as an event by putting the

keyword 'event' in its definition

public event Action myEventAction;

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Events

1. It is very important that once an event has been

subscribed to, that it is unsubscribed from before the
object is destroyed

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Events

1. It is very important that once an event has been

subscribed to, that it is unsubscribed from before the
object is destroyed

2. Events that are still subscribed to will not be Garbage

Collected and will therefore cause memory leaks if
they are left subscribed

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Events

1. Calling events works the same as calling delegates,

this will call all of the functions which have
subscribed to the event

public event Action myEventAction;

myEventAction += MyFunction;

myEventAction();
Unite 2016 - Training Day
Game State Phase 6/6
Events

1. The key point about events is that the triggering

class does not need to tell all concerned classes to
call a specific function

2. Instead, concerned classes can listen for an event

and then act accordingly

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Lambda Expressions

1. Lambda expressions are a short-hand way of writing

functions that can be stored in delegates

2. They have the following syntax:

'variable names' => 'expression(s) using
those variables'

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Lambda Expressions

1. The variables declared for a lambda often very short

2. Variables are usually implicitly typed, for example:

x => x == someValue

3. In the above case, x implicitly has the same type as

someValue

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Lambda Expressions

1. Lambda expressions are generally are quite short

2. Here are some examples of delegates using Lambda

Expressions
Action myAction = () => Debug.Log("something");

Action<int> myAction = x => x * x;

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Lambda Expressions

1. When expressions are longer or there are multiple

expressions, braces are used
Action<string> myAction = name =>
{
name.ToUpper();
print (name);
};

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Lambda Expressions

1. One key reason to use lambda expressions is to

simplify our code

Unite 2016 - Training Day

Game State Phase 6/6
Lambda Expressions

This:
Action<string> myAction = SomeFunction;
private void SomeFunction (string name)
{
print(name);
}

Becomes this:
Action<string> myAction = name => {print (name);};
