    ++ for .net core
    Get yourself familiar with object oriented programming, just read in your profile, that you're game dev, so probably unity, because of c#. They don't teach you the basics, there are better tutorials.

    @blubberfish yah got started on unity a week ago and have a rough game so far (from tutorial), yah I am following a tutorial series from a game Dev from YouTube and it is ridiculously easy compared to other tutorials I've tried so yah going good, thx for the help:)

    @GoergiPorgi cool keep going :), but they just teach you the programming skills needed for unity, nothing further. Once made the space shooter from the tutorials there.

    And if you want to complain about something or brag yourself dev related, that is your community.
    For dev related questions, please consider stackoverflow.
    So happy ranting :)
    In the mood of.... That shitty feature of Unity is... Or... My IT teacher in school told such a shit... Or... Add your story here to share

    Don't copy / paste code. If you need to Google around for help (you will, everyone does!) because you don't understand something, and see some code that resolves your problem:

    - Take the time to make sure you understand exactly what that code is doing, and how it works;
    - ...then type it out manually, line by line.

    There's nothing that slows devs down more than just randomly copy / pasting code without the understanding of what it does, or how to fix it if it goes wrong.

    @AlmondSauce what is the difference from copy something than just using another plugin? Well by copying you saw the code once

    @blubberfish well he's saying just put the time to completely just understand the code not just look at it
