C# inheriting Awake()

Questions & Answers
1

I have a Parent class:

public class Base : MonoBehaviour
{
    protected void Awake()
    {
        print("Do some stuff");
    }
}

And a child class that derives from Base:

public class Sub : Base
{
    void Awake()
    {
        print("ALSO do this stuff!");
    }
}

Unfortunately I’m still fairly new to programming and do not understand types such as abstract, virtual, etc. I only understand how to use private, public, and protected.

If you haven’t figured it out already, what I want is for a base class to have something to do. Any class that derives from this should also do these things, and then do more stuff after it.
I need this in the Awake() method so that it gets called when the object is instantiated.

Thanks for any help!

public class Base : MonoBehaviour {
protected virtual void Awake() {
print(“Do some stuff”);
}
}

public class Sub : Base {
    protected override void Awake() {
        base.Awake();
        print("ALSO do this stuff!");
    }
}
