saved obj w/ specific components that can be reused in game

To most efficiently make sure a gun moves along with its "owner" in a game, you would probably:

use hierarchy view to make gun a child object of the owner

A private variable is used to:

declare you want to use a variable for a particular script

Why would a developer create a public variable?

They want the whole game to be able to access it.

7
To most efficiently make sure a gun moves along with its "owner" in a game, you would probably:
make the controls control both gun and owner
use hierarchy view to make gun a child object of the owner
all of the above are equally efficient
create conditional logic string: when owner moves, gun moves
8
A private variable is used to:
declare you want to use a variable for a particular script
create prototypes to mock up game ideas
create invisible objects
hide the results of an action from the player

Why would a developer create a public variable?
They want to crowdsource the debugging.
They are working on an open-source project.
They want to share it with other developers on their team.
They want the whole game to be able to access it.

11
Conditional logic can be used to:
decide when an enemy runs away from a player
decide when a gun fires a bullet
all of the above
decide when a door opens or closes
12
A request for a game to return specific data for the script to reference is called:
a callout
a pingback
a constant
a query
13
A value that cannot be altered by the program when it’s running is:
