Module 6 Assessment

This module covers the basics of getting started with the provided Unity project and creating an interactive main menu. Learners will explore the sample project, configure the Unity Input System, and implement functionality to navigate scenes using UI elements.

Module 1:  Project Overview and Main Menu

This module focuses on configuring the player-controlled cannon. Learners will explore the cannon prefab, connect Input System actions to its components, and implement functionality to tilt and turn the cannon as well as its wheels.

Module 2:  Player Setup

This module focuses on setting up advanced camera controls using Unity’s Cinemachine package. Learners will configure virtual cameras to follow and orbit GameObjects, providing smooth and dynamic perspectives for gameplay.

Module 3:  Cinemachine Setup

This module focuses on creating and managing projectiles in Unity. Learners will build a projectile prefab, implement firing mechanics, and configure interactions such as collisions and explosions. The module also introduces using tags and particle systems for dynamic effects.

Module 4:  Projectile Setup

This module covers the creation and management of in-game UI elements. Learners will design a score display, update UI values dynamically, and implement functionality to toggle menus during gameplay using Unity’s UI components and scripting techniques.

Module 5:  UI

This module covers the integration of animations and ragdoll physics to enhance gameplay interactions. Learners will explore Unity’s Mecanim system, configure animator controllers, and implement ragdoll physics for dynamic character responses.

Module 6:  Interacting with Mecanim and Ragdolls

Module 6 Challenge - Animations.zip

Take your Unity development skills to the next level by learning how to create program interactions using C# scripting. This hands-on course delves into interactive gameplay mechanics, from setting up player controls and projectiles to integrating animations, ragdoll physics, and sound effects. Using Unity’s Input System, Cinemachine, and Mecanim animation system, you'll learn to create dynamic and engaging player experiences. Perfect for intermediate developers, this course will equip you with the tools and techniques to build interactive projects with confidence while deepening your C# scripting expertise.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

Navigate and understand the sample project structure.

Configure Unity’s Input System for player interactions.

Design and script a functional main menu with scene transitions.

Modify and script player prefabs to respond to input for movement and rotation.

Set up and configure Cinemachine cameras for smooth tracking and interaction.

Create, instantiate, and manage projectiles using colliders, rigidbodies, and forces.

Design interactive targets and implement collision-based effects, including particle systems.

Build and dynamically update in-game UI using Text Mesh Pro.

Use the singleton pattern to manage UI elements across gameplay.

Create and manage animations using the Mecanim system and animator parameters.

Configure and toggle ragdoll states for dynamic physics-based interactions.

Play and script sound effects for enhanced gameplay immersion.

Bonus Challenge

By the end of this module, learners will be able to:

Add and configure an Audio Source component to play sound effects.

Trigger sound effects during gameplay using C# scripting.

Synchronize sound effects with animations and physics events.

In this challenge, modify the sound of the BigExplosion prefab.

Experiment with the pitch value of the AudioSource component on the explosion prefab and the Ragdoll prefab.

Set the Stereo Blend property to 1 on the BigExplosion prefab’s AudioSource and the Ragdoll as well to see how distance affects the audio playback.

Update the Ragdoll class to include two new public float variables called pitchMin and pitchMax. Set the default value of pitchMin above 0 but below the pitchMax value and set the pitchMax default between 1 and 3.

Add the following line of code above the audioSource.Play() method:

audioSource.pitch = Random.Range(pitchMin, pitchMax);

Experiment with the pitchMin and pitchMax values to see how pitch affects the audio effects.
