Extension Methods for Unity

Over 800 extension methods for Unity and general C# development. Methods were submitted by the Unity community, gleaned from third party websites, and developed by me during my game development career.

Tested on these platforms: PC, Mac, Android, iOS, WP8, and Web Player. Should work on all Unity supported platforms.

Methods for:

  • Targetting
  • Layers
  • Movement and Rotation
  • GameObjects and Components
  • Spawning Objects and Prefabs
  • Serialization
  • Exceptions
  • Lists and Arrays
  • Cryptography (WP8 safe)
  • Numbers and Conversions
  • Strings
  • Many more!

@merlin981 ,

Any chance of some regex support - some methods for parsing dice rolls / dice roll notations (I’ve had a google and nothing perfectly fits the bill)?
