Just so we are all aware that there is a VirtualMouseInput class.

A component that creates a virtual Mouse device and drives its input from gamepad-style inputs. This effectively adds a software mouse cursor.#gamedev #indiedev pic.twitter.com/ebcxt25wzS

Finally, something in my project that actually snaps into place.

In unity3d you can snap an object holding down CMD (on mac) or CTRL (on Windows) while moving it.#gamedev #indiedev pic.twitter.com/KNtWcMC3NU

Use NavMesh.CalculatePath() to precompute paths and quickly assign them to NavMeshAgents with NavMeshAgent.SetPath().

This also allows you to check different pathing options without having to change the agent’s destination. pic.twitter.com/LYjCGmokD7

Using reflections to find which methods have a certain attribute throughout your entire Unity project is a slow process.

Use the TypeCache class to access attributes and derived type information much quicker.#gamedev #indiedev pic.twitter.com/HwrzP5z2iW

Ever lost progress from changes made in Play Mode?

Change Unity’s window color in Play Mode! If set to a different color in your Preferences, you are less likely to loose changes that were meant to be permanent.#gamedev #indiedev pic.twitter.com/mID5Rs5oUZ

Hold ALT while scaling to expand the element evenly from its pivot point, hold SHIFT to lock the element’s aspect ratio.

Hold both to get both effects at the same time!#gamedev #indiedev pic.twitter.com/7WYWaLUoAZ

You dont need to pollute your MonoBehaviours with drawing gizmo code.

Instead within the Custom Editor for said MonoBehaviour use the attribute DrawGizmo above a static method and add the Gizmo drawing there.#gamedev pic.twitter.com/CilAcKQdy7
