the most cursed unity coding trick that i keep doing with FISH FEAR ME is the stunning fact that you don't need to instantiate prefabs in order to use their values. in order to get fish information for the game's bestiary (there's a bestiary btw), i'm referencing a non-extant prefab which contains a list of every fish prefab, and then trawling those non-extant prefabs for information like its sprite, name, and spawning conditions

in reply to @hthrflwrs's post:
its a good thing im not you, because i would just be throwing the name bestiary into the trash and making a pun name like fearstiary or fishtiary
Huh, I never really thought of that a feature so much as just like, the un-instantiated prefab is a data object. It's basically just using a prefab as a scriptable object.
I wish unity weren't shitting the bed as a company, I spent so long learning its eccentricities that they seem second nature at this point and it's hard to move to another engine people will actually pay me to code for -_-;
yeah, i really wanna get out of unity as soon as i'm able to so that all this knowledge of eccentricities can get replaced with more useful stuff. i have some engine dev experience, and i know if i could just get a spare six months to build off a framework i'd be flying
