You can also use the
[HideInInspector]
attribute to hide a
global variable from the inspector.
The ? operator
The
if-else
statements are so common and widely used in C# that a specialized
shorthand notation is available for writing simpler ones, without resorting to the
full multiline
if-else
statements. This shorthand is called the
?
operator. The basic
form of this statement is as follows:
//If condition is true then do expression 1, else do expression 2
(condition) ? expression_1 : expression_2;
Let's see the
?
operator in a practical example as shown here:
//We should hide this object if its Y position is above 100 units
bool ShouldHideObject = (transform.position.y > 100) ? true :
false;
//Update object visibility
gameObject.SetActive(!ShouldHideObject);
The
?
operator is useful for shorter statements, but for long and more
intricate statements, it can make your code harder to read.
