Anybody good with C#? I'm doing a project in my school's programming club, and my team wants to create a game with Unity as the engine. They want me to script the basic gameplay loop, doesn't sound too bad, except I'm more knowledgeable with frontend languages and don't know much C#. Wouldn't know where to start, any advice?
Go through the Unity scripting tutorials. Been several years since I used it, but their documentation has traditionally been top notch. Matter of fact, programming didn't really click for me in a practical way until I was hands on with Unity. For the most part you'll be scripting on a per-actor basis, which makes things a little easier.

Great, thanks for the insight

I'm doing Colt Steele's course. He moves slowly and focuses on teaching the fundamentals thoroughly. The only problem is that it's a bit too slow and kind of outdated. He's added some new sections that cover some of the newer stuff though, but they're all the way at the end of the course.
He uses class based components for most of the course
I tried Traversy's, but like the said he rushes through things and doesn't really explain things. I imagine his course would be good if you already had a good foundation.
Thanks for putting me on to John, will check out his course now
Y'all doing fun stuff while I'm over here reading through the React documentation.

Say no more breh.
But on the bright side, you now got that job interview experience.
Man I really took my last project for granted, it was so damn fun, basically a greenfield project where I got to make tons of decisions.
My current one is just making incremental changes to already existing projects and having to chase down reviewers...Im so damn bored

One way to deal with this is to boyscout every file you have to touch for your incremental updates. Look for refactoring opportunities and make refactors, this will make the project easier for future devs to maintain and you might even start to implement conventions that will eventually become standard for that project.
I do, though I work from home these days. I wonder if any other engineering brehs live in NYC

Moving there soon. Anything I should be aware of as an African breh moving to 'merica for the first time? Mostly concerned about rent and getting a good 1BR apartment in either NJ or NYC but need to be in the office at least twice a week nearby Times Square. Trying to make the most of my stay there. Any recommendations are welcome from New YorkersI do, though I work from home these days. I wonder if any other engineering brehs live in NYC

I never made the move to NYC because the rent increased so much. I travel a lot.formeork so my company wanted me to stay in the meat packing district but that didn't work out.
I'm in jersey at the moment, Holmdel (affluent/mostly white neighborhood)but I wouldn't suggest moving here unless you have a family
