Start function called twice about cs7038 HOT 8 CLOSED

Start is called in Awake below

from cs7038.

so that's always the case, then?

I added the Awake method in c41461b, to make sure spriteRenderer is initialized before using LaserEmitter.Direction.

THAT LOOKS WRONG. :)

I will try removing the Awake and see if there's another solution.

This is really simple:

• Use Awake for all initialization logic that does not depend on other objects.
• Use Start for all initialization logic that depends on other objects.

Just using either Start or Awake is fine in most cases, but in some cases we do need to be more specific.However, calling ANY Unity method manually is a bad idea. The very reason why these methods are private by default is to prevent other scripts from accessing them.

But here is one detail that might be important someday (it was to me when I wrote GroupManager): Awake will always be called, but Start might not if the script is inactive after the Awake method (by disabling it in the Inspector or by calling this.enabled = false in the Awake method), in which case it will be called when the script is activated.
