Use of the Unit class?

Unity Engine
1

I’m currently working on a selection system for my first project that is an army control game. With the help of the user “Marrrk” he provided me with a script, which can be seen below

using UnityEngine;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class SelectionManager
{
    public List<Unit> _selection = new List<Unit>();
      
    public Action<Unit> UnitSelected;
    public Action<Unit> UnitDeselected;
   
    public void Select(Unit unit)
    {
        if (_selection.Contains(unit))
            return;
              
        _selection.Add(unit);
          
        if (UnitSelected != null)
            UnitDeselected(unit);
		
    }
      
    public void Deselect(Unit unit)
    {
        if (!_selection.Contains(unit))
            return;
              
           _selection.Remove(unit);
       
        if (UnitSelected != null)
            UnitSelected(unit);
    }
      
    public static SelectionManager Default = new SelectionManager();
}

As you can see this Script calls the “Unit” class quite often, which is making me a little unsure of what I’m doing here… He provided me with the code-segmant to select and Deselect units aswell as check to see if they were selected

To Select a unit

SelectionManager.Default.Select(myUnit);

and to Deselect a unit

SelectionManager.Default.Deselect(myUnit);

Although, I have no idea how to pass the parameter of myUnit, because I don’t know anything about the Unit class, and I can’t find it in the scripting reference.

So here if my (poorly coded) selectable.cs script which is attatched to anything that can be selected, can you guys help me implement this?

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Selectable : MonoBehaviour {
		
	
	GUIManager guiManager;
	
	public bool unit = true;
	public bool selected = false;
	public Transform selector;
	
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		guiManager = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("GameController").GetComponent<GUIManager>();

		if(selector != null) 
			selector.renderer.enabled = false;
	}
	
	void Update () {
		
		if(selector != null) {
			if(selected)
				selector.renderer.enabled = true;
			else
				selector.renderer.enabled = false;
		}
		
		if(!unit) {
			
		} else {
				if(renderer.isVisible  Input.GetMouseButton (0)) {
					Vector3 camPos = Camera.main.WorldToScreenPoint (transform.position);
					camPos.y = MouseManager.screenToRectSpace(camPos.y);
					if(guiManager.isHoverGUI) 
						return;
					selected = MouseManager.selectionRect.Contains (camPos);
				}
			}

		
	}
}

Thank you, and major thanks to marrrk for taking the time to write the original script out for me and explain its uses.

Unit is the class you have for your RTS units, hence the name. You must have something like that I suppose.

Given the nature of the questions you’re asking (and the fact that you’ve been asking about roughly the same topic for a couple of weeks now) I would really urge you to sit down and run through some Unity tutorials and also read some literature on the C# language. As I’ve said before, RTS games are much more complicated than they first appear to be so it might not be ideal for a “get your feet wet” type project.

I’m not dismissing your skills or existing knowledge, I’m just giving you my opinion based on my past experiences.
