Hey guys British89 isn’t self promoting. They are one of my subscribers on Youtube and wanted to share my channel. Which I am very thankful they have done. I have not been doing Unity development and video tutorials for very long so the game is not very complete but I am working on it most of the time. There isn’t much help on RTS games in Unity anywhere as I have looked so a lot comes from trial and error and a lot of testing.

check my signature, it is a bit old and simple but may be helpful…
@tasadar That is a pretty cool demo of an RTS game. It has a lot of components to it. I have things like moving and attacking with multiple units. The biggest step I am having trouble getting past is creating a fog of war that runs smoothly. Unfortunately there isn’t a whole lot of help for that type of thing.
Nce find keep them coming
May I suggest numbering your videos and putting them in a playlist? I’m looking at them now, and it isn’t clear which one to start with. I’ll just watch them all, and hopefully none of them will require me to have seen a previous video to make sense. If that is the case, they definitely need to be numbered in the order to be watched, and then added to a playlist for ease of viewing.
I actually have them in a playlist called “Unity RTS Binary”. I might need to reverse the order so that they make since in the way they are ordered. The only reason I had them backwards is so that when I featured them on my channel’s player it would show the correct one. I’ll go ahead and fix that issues so others can watch them in the correct order.
Thanks for the suggestions
Awesome! Thanks! I’ve already watched a few, and I think it will help to know the order. heh
thnx
Keep in mind this is almost five years old at this point and probably outdated.

realy thnx i hope their was mouse drag include it which m currently dealing with same version on lynda.com either exactly same method m using for single unit selection
Mouse drag is easy. You start by having your selection system support multiple units. Then when you click and drag the mouse it creates a bounding box (or box collider depending on how you want to approach it) followed by checking every object to see if it’s within the box and if so add it to the list.
It’s a bit of an oversimplification but someone who has gone through the official learning section should be able to do it.
thnx for reply i can select multiple units with shift key but no idea how to work with drag system (sry m not much experienced programmer btw)
Start here.
thnx for nice tutorial it could be used in RPG style inventory but drag i was mentioning earlier was abt “RTS style multiple unit selection with selection box”
