Delegates? Basically, UnityEvents. But Cooler | Unity C# Basics Part 5 #Shorts

Full Tutorial: https://youtu.be/1N6k7Hj_JKc

Learn about what delegates are, when to use them, compare their functionality with a UnityEvent, and when you should use a UnityEvent over a delegate! In this video we'll be covering all of that and implementing our first delegate so we can raise an event when our AutoDestroyText is destroyed!

If you've been using Unity for a while, or are just getting started with Unity and decided it's time for you to start learning how to write code - this is the video series you need to start your programming journey!

As always! The full project code is available GitHub: https://github.com/llamacademy/unity-csharp-basics-5

📝📝📝YOUR HOMEWORK!📝📝📝

Update your singleton MonoBehaviour to raise events when it spawns an object and when that object is destroyed! For the simplest implementation you can just do a Debug.Log but think about the signature of the event so you can apply it to your game!
