WEBVTT 00:00.140 --> 00:00.680 Hello guys. 00:00.680 --> 00:02.030 Welcome to another video. 00:02.030 --> 00:06.860 So in this one I want to talk about Windows and Tools of Unity. 00:06.860 --> 00:10.400 We're going to discuss the most common one that we see on the screen right now. 00:10.400 --> 00:14.930 And I just want to say that if he will not remember all of the information I'm going to give you in 00:14.930 --> 00:19.910 this video, don't worry about it, because we're going to use them a lot and we're going to practice 00:19.910 --> 00:20.240 a lot. 00:20.240 --> 00:23.930 And even if you don't remember everything, you will learn it with the time. 00:23.930 --> 00:30.440 Because, you know, I actually I never expect from people to learn and remember and memorize everything 00:30.440 --> 00:33.680 I say in first videos, because that is not possible. 00:33.680 --> 00:39.020 Personally for me, when I was doing my first project, I did not like understand anything. 00:39.020 --> 00:42.020 I was just trying to follow and do what I see on the screen. 00:42.020 --> 00:45.980 So yeah, in the beginning it's not so easy to understand everything and memorize everything. 00:45.980 --> 00:47.180 We need to learn a lot. 00:47.180 --> 00:51.350 So you just try to, you know, get yourself used to the environment. 00:51.350 --> 00:53.600 You just try to understand what I'm doing. 00:53.600 --> 00:55.550 But don't be too hard on yourself, okay? 00:55.550 --> 00:57.020 Now what we have here. 00:57.020 --> 01:03.440 Well, first window over here is a project window that we used to work with the assets. 01:03.440 --> 01:05.780 You already have a bit of a practice with this window. 01:05.780 --> 01:11.090 And usually here we store all of the things we need for the game to work. 01:11.090 --> 01:17.150 Here you have your scripts, animators, sprites, anything like that. 01:17.150 --> 01:18.530 Everything is stored in this folder. 01:18.530 --> 01:22.400 And whenever you need to use something, you can just go here and grab what you need. 01:22.430 --> 01:23.240 All right. 01:23.240 --> 01:27.890 Now there is a scene window and game window over here. 01:27.890 --> 01:31.970 They are very different, although they look similar. 01:31.970 --> 01:35.990 So the game window is what player will see. 01:35.990 --> 01:38.540 The game window is the end result. 01:38.540 --> 01:45.080 If we go to the play maximized and click play button over here, you'll see that nothing is happening 01:45.080 --> 01:45.770 in the game. 01:45.770 --> 01:47.270 But this is our video game. 01:47.270 --> 01:48.380 Just that. 01:48.380 --> 01:53.420 And what you see in the scene window is sort of an editor view. 01:53.420 --> 01:55.340 It's a developer view. 01:55.340 --> 01:57.380 This is what is happening behind the scene. 01:57.380 --> 01:59.570 And you manage all of the things here. 01:59.570 --> 02:02.390 So in the scene window we do editing. 02:02.390 --> 02:03.710 We control processes. 02:03.710 --> 02:05.690 We manage how it's going to work. 02:05.690 --> 02:09.170 We move stuff around and in the game window we test the game. 02:09.170 --> 02:11.660 And this will be the end result for your game. 02:11.660 --> 02:12.470 What you see. 02:14.430 --> 02:15.150 Here. 02:15.180 --> 02:15.810 Okay. 02:16.590 --> 02:17.580 Very nice. 02:17.580 --> 02:25.920 Now there is a hierarchy window which stores all of the things that are in the scene at the moment. 02:27.760 --> 02:32.680 It is very different from the project window, because Project Window contains all of the information 02:32.680 --> 02:38.200 you have in the project, and hierarchy contains only things that we use in the current scene. 02:38.200 --> 02:43.120 If you need to manage some stuff, you usually select it here in the hierarchy and you do some sort 02:43.120 --> 02:44.350 of manipulations with it. 02:44.350 --> 02:49.690 For example, you move the thing around or something like that, or you need maybe to copy it. 02:49.690 --> 02:54.160 Then you just press control C, control V, and you have another copy of the object. 02:54.160 --> 02:54.670 All right. 02:54.670 --> 02:56.470 So this is what we do in the hierarchy. 02:56.470 --> 03:01.960 Hierarchy is used to manage objects in the game not in the project in the game. 03:02.830 --> 03:10.210 There is also an Inspector window, and Inspector window shows you all of the properties of the selected 03:10.210 --> 03:12.340 object that are accessible to us. 03:12.340 --> 03:18.880 So if I select object in the hierarchy, it shows me the objects in the game and what components it 03:18.880 --> 03:19.660 has. 03:19.660 --> 03:24.670 If I select this very same sprite in the project. 03:26.580 --> 03:31.980 You can see it shows us like default information about this image only. 03:32.950 --> 03:33.340 Right. 03:33.340 --> 03:37.630 So you can consider inspector like a close lookup on to the object. 03:37.630 --> 03:42.640 It shows you all of the properties it has, game objects usually showing you components that object 03:42.640 --> 03:43.900 uses in the game. 03:43.900 --> 03:46.600 And we're going to talk about components in the next video. 03:46.600 --> 03:53.050 For now, I just want to say that components are sort of a thing that gives your object certain properties. 03:53.050 --> 03:59.260 For example, sprite renderer is responsible for visual representation of the object. 03:59.260 --> 04:06.730 If I disable it or if I remove it, then object will not have an image and the transform is responsible 04:06.730 --> 04:09.070 for object to be in a space. 04:09.070 --> 04:11.170 You can see I have a position here. 04:11.170 --> 04:15.520 I have a rotation these things controlled by transform. 04:15.520 --> 04:20.020 If I would add for example a rigidbody component over here. 04:20.760 --> 04:25.050 Then my object would fall once we are in the game. 04:25.320 --> 04:25.890 Right. 04:25.890 --> 04:29.280 So this is what components do and we're going to discuss them later on. 04:29.280 --> 04:31.380 This is just a quick example. 04:32.520 --> 04:37.530 Now there is something else you should know and that is tools. 04:37.530 --> 04:38.430 Over here. 04:38.430 --> 04:44.040 I'm going to click right button and choose horizontal because this is a bit more convenient for us. 04:44.040 --> 04:48.780 And before I begin to explain them, I want you to know that hotkeys for these buttons are very easy 04:48.780 --> 04:49.740 to remember. 04:49.740 --> 04:59.160 This is q w e r t y and I can switch between them just like that with a q e t y. 04:59.190 --> 05:01.140 Now let me explain what they do. 05:01.140 --> 05:04.560 I just want to reset transform of the object over here. 05:05.510 --> 05:06.230 Yeah. 05:06.230 --> 05:11.360 So the view tool allows you to move around the scene like that. 05:15.420 --> 05:20.490 If you ever used any maybe photo editor like Photoshop, you probably know that you can move around 05:20.490 --> 05:23.910 the scene with a middle mouse button just like that. 05:23.910 --> 05:25.590 And that's what I usually do. 05:25.590 --> 05:32.010 I never select this tool manually with the Q hotkey, because you can just press the wheel on your mouse 05:32.010 --> 05:32.730 and move around. 05:32.730 --> 05:36.030 You can even see I highlighted that click with a white color. 05:36.030 --> 05:39.780 So you know when I'm clicking that button when I want to move around, right. 05:39.780 --> 05:42.450 So this is the middle, uh, mouse button. 05:42.450 --> 05:43.230 The wheel. 05:43.930 --> 05:48.730 Now there is a next one, a move tool which allows you to move objects around. 05:48.730 --> 05:50.080 We're going to use it a lot. 05:50.080 --> 05:56.020 So you select the object, you just press W and you move it as you want as you need. 05:56.290 --> 06:01.810 Then there is a rotation tool which is mostly used in 3D development, but sometimes it's needed in 06:01.810 --> 06:02.590 2D as well. 06:02.590 --> 06:06.820 This one allows you to rotate the object as you want and if you need to rotate it. 06:06.820 --> 06:10.030 But again, in 2D, usually it's not used that much. 06:10.700 --> 06:15.230 Then there is a scale tool which allows you to scale the object. 06:15.650 --> 06:21.410 But again, I do not use it too often because usually when you want to change scale of the object, 06:21.410 --> 06:26.810 you have some precise value like you think I want this object to be 50% bigger. 06:26.810 --> 06:29.720 If that happens, you go here to the transform. 06:29.720 --> 06:35.720 You select this and you just type 1.5 and it will be bigger by 50%. 06:35.720 --> 06:36.320 Okay. 06:36.740 --> 06:44.120 And then there is a rect tool which allows you to stretch the object and it will change its scale and 06:44.120 --> 06:45.470 position just a little bit. 06:45.470 --> 06:48.110 This can be used when you're making some sort of test platform. 06:48.110 --> 06:53.510 When you want to test something, you can just throw a sprite in the scene and stretch it and use it 06:53.510 --> 06:56.120 as a platform to test something. 06:57.240 --> 06:59.880 I'm going to press Ctrl Z to revert everything. 06:59.880 --> 07:03.210 And also there is a transform tool. 07:03.690 --> 07:09.330 Let me select the object which has all of the tools we discussed before all together. 07:10.270 --> 07:16.660 If you need to rotate move, you can do it within one tool, but in my experience it is barely used 07:16.660 --> 07:19.810 so there is no really reason to worry about it. 07:19.930 --> 07:20.680 Okay. 07:22.260 --> 07:23.760 That's very good. 07:23.760 --> 07:27.660 And that's probably everything I wanted to tell you. 07:27.660 --> 07:30.300 Just a quick overview of the windows and tools. 07:30.300 --> 07:31.470 We're going to use them a lot. 07:31.470 --> 07:35.580 There are other things you see on the screen, but they are not as important right now. 07:35.580 --> 07:39.510 And I promise to you, if we're going to use some new things, I'm going to explain them. 07:39.510 --> 07:40.980 So don't worry about it, okay? 07:40.980 --> 07:42.120 I'll see you in the next video.
