Use math to solve problems in Unity with C#

Covers the following:
1. In front or behind you?
2. How do you know if you have passed a waypoint?
3. Turn left or right to reach a waypoint?
4. The coordinate where a ray intersects with a plane
5. Are two line segments intersecting?
6. Are two triangles intersecting?
7. Are two rectangles intersecting?
8. Find the convex hull
9. Useful algorithms
10. Triangulation
11. Delaunay Triangulation
12. Cut polygons
13. Voronoi diagram
14. Constrained Delaunay Triangulation

Generic UnityEngine.Objects

This package allows to create and use generic ScriptableObjects and MonoBehaviours in Unity3D. Although generic serializable classes are now supported by Unity 2020, generic ScriptableObject and MonoBehaviour are not yet, and this plugin allows to overcome this limitation.

There is undocumented PlayerSettings.productGUID property which you can use to identify the specific project no matter project / product name, location and Unity version.

Helpful for the project-specific EditorPrefs (like DisplayDialog opt-out).

The magic of Material Property Blocks

Use it in situations where you want to draw multiple objects with the same material, but slightly different properties. For example, if you want to slightly change the color of each mesh drawn. Changing the render state is not supported.
