I set a simple localisation test, put a localisation file into my Resources folder, i will not be loaded or appended.
after some debugging, i found that the system loaded wrong localisation file located at FlipWebApps\GameFrameworkTutorials\Localisation\Resources\Localisation.csv(not my own one).When i deleted this localisation file, problem is gone.

The necessary steps to use Facebook sdk are all ok, i also built the fb sdk example secene and run on android perfectly.
then i try fb manager component, my android game will stop running immediately. after many tries,
i found what is the problem.

those settings works, my game will not crash.
if i choose permission optional or required, my android game will crash whenever i click the login button.

Unity version:5.4.1f3
GameFramw version: latest github version.
Facebook SDK: 7.8

As the title said, my version is the newest GitHub version.

Not all of the components work as expected with gamepad or keyboard input. Add such support using the included GameStructure demo as a basis.

Some suggestions of what needs doing:

Part 1 - Title Screen

• Navigation of buttons.
• Settings window
• Press a certain button to continue

Part 2 - Level Selection Screen

• Navigation of buttons.
• Select follows highlighted UI element ensuring correct actions (e.g. can't proceed with a locked button)

Part 3 - Character Selection Screen

• Navigation of buttons.
• Select follows highlighted ensuring correct actions (e.g. can't proceed with a locked button)

Part 4 - Game

• Navigation of buttons (or do we need this - should perhaps just trigger pause window on a specific key press)
• Support within gameover and pause windows.

Thoughts on some of the key changes that might need doing:

• Setup an initially selected UI element in the scenes Event System and enable navigation for buttons and other prefabs.
• DialogInstance should have a 'First Selected' field and record / return the last selected item when shown / closed.
• Change MouseClickOrTapXxx components - ButtonOrTapXxx and add options for specifying button(s?) to react to.

Much games have 2 common collectibles, coins and gems

Coins are the most common and easy to find in game, gems are a rare collectible and in much games you need to purchase this collectible to get it (or showing adds)

I have two proposals to solve this issue
1 - Add gems using same procediments as coins actually
2 - Add support for dynamic count of collectibles

Adding dynamic collectibles adds a lot of new features that could be used to improve user experience in our game, my idea about this is:

1 - Initially Game Framework has two collectibles, points and coins

2 - New methods to get/set this collectibles could be:

• AddCoins(int coins) -> Collect(string collectible, int quantity, int playerNumber = 0), Example:
  AddCoins(10) -> Collect('Coin', 10)
  AddPoints(10) -> Collect('Point', 10)
• RemoveCoins(int coins) -> Uncollect(string collectible, int quantity, int playerNumber = 0), Example:
  RemoveCoins(10) -> Uncollect('Coin', 10)
  RemovePoints(10) -> Uncollect('Point', 10)

This collectibles could be stored in a dictionary of <string, float> to allow decimal values

What do you think?

Sorry for such generic title =)
I'm software engineer student from Ukraine, and in our Object Oriented Programming course we are forced to make a contribution to some open source project. Since I'm also working in small gamedev team and we are using Unity, I'm interested to help you if you have some features that you wanna implement.
I'm writing in C#, know OOP and SOLID principles, already worked with Unity3D.
So I'd like to find a conclusion with you and make my contribution.

you can also contact me via email "[email protected]"

sorry for english, still learning

I noticed LevelManager.IsLevelRunning is protected on set and GameManage.IsPaused is deprecated

So, where is the current way to pause game through game framework?

Thank you for the amazing Framework ,
There is one small issue that i encounter using the framework which is that my worlds are getting the same coins value as my levels and they are ignoring the set value in game manager inspector

I had to change the following line to get the desired result

File : GameManager.cs
Line : 567
From : Worlds.LoadDefaultItems(1, NumberOfAutoCreatedWorlds, CoinsToUnlockLevels, LoadWorldDatafromResources);

To :
Worlds.LoadDefaultItems(1, NumberOfAutoCreatedWorlds, CoinsToUnlockWorlds, LoadWorldDatafromResources);

Please close this issue if this was intended for some reason , if not a small fix will help lot of other developers using your amazing framework ,

Keep it up ,

Regards

Add a new generic GameItem implementation with associated classes (e.g. similar to character). This could be used for any general purpose such as in game unlockable items etc..

Other improvements include:

• Add a generic category int property (can be in Generic baseclass) with options for returning items of a specific category.
• Expose this through the GameManager in a similar fashion to other GameItem types.

I added a ShowCoins component(GameFramework | GameStructure | Player) to a ui element with text component, then set the localisation key. the problem is when i change the game language globally, the text won't change immediately unless reload scene.
I also tried adding localisetext component on the same ui element which led to another odd result.

Coin based unlocking can be used for some items but there is a need that others (premium) ones can only be unlocked through IAP?

Proposed solution

Add an 'unlock mode' to the individual GameItems with options such as Default, Custom, Coins, Coins & IAP, IAP Only.

Selection menu buttons need updating to take this status into consideration.

The unlock button should only unlock based upon coins but should probably offer the option to unlock next / random (it might be you don't use this button depending upon the exact setup you go with)

Currently you can add extra information to a GameItem (Level, World, Character, ... using either a json resources file and / or creating a subclass). One improvement would be to offer the option of loading a ScriptableObject in the same way json files are loaded that would allow for configuration through the editor and also adding additional code.

Proposed Tasks:

• Create a new GameItemExtension class that inherits from ScriptableObject. This should also have public variables for Name, Description, ValueToUnlock that it set can be used for overriding default values as is done with the json file.
• Add a GameItemExtension property to GameItem and try setting this in GameItem when loading from resources as is done with the json file (in LoadLevelData()).
• Add a new GameItem method GetExtension() that trys converting the scriptable object to the specified type and returns it.

I have two recommendations to reduce and improve namespaces

1 - Remove FlipWebApps to bring more singularity to GameFramework
2 - Remove Scripts, C# namespaces are used in other scripts to call GF scripts, It do not make sense to add scripts in all namespaces because there will not be other types of namespaces (for example we never will need GameFramework.Prefabs.UI)

Example of new namespaces:

using FlipWebApps.GameFramework.Scripts.GameStructure.Levels.ObjectModel;
using FlipWebApps.GameFramework.Scripts.UI.Other.Components.AbstractClasses;

using GameFramework.GameStructure.Levels.ObjectModel;
using GameFramework.UI.Other.Components.AbstractClasses;

Add components that can be used on a menu selection screen that will show more information about the currently selected GameItem and will update the display when the selection changes.

..If you want this feature then please comment and add what kind of functionality you might need.

Thank you for the effort that's gone into this I hope to understand it better and use it on my next project, hopefully add or suggest if I can!

Unity compilation error :
Assets/Scripts/GameStructure/GameManager.cs(25,19): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'BeautifulTransitions' does not exist in the namespace 'FlipWebApps'. Are you missing an assembly reference?

Line 25 - using FlipWebApps.BeautifulTransitions.Scripts.Transitions.Components;
Simply commenting out solves the issue!

FYI - compiling in Monodev 5.9.6 on Win10 64bit gives 23 errors but I always use Unity for compilation.

UPDATE
I've just noticed the conditional #if BEAUTIFUL_TRANSITIONS in GameManager.cs
Moving the offending line solves the issue!

#if BEAUTIFUL_TRANSITIONS
using FlipWebApps.BeautifulTransitions.Scripts.Transitions.Components;
using FlipWebApps.BeautifulTransitions.Scripts.Transitions;
#endif

I assume this is the fix!?

Allow GameItems to have multiple features such as in a racing game you might use the 'Character' GameItem to represent different cars and should be able to have features such as color, design and wheels or a shooter where the character you can choose the weapon or clothing.

• Each feature itself would be a GameItem and so have properties such as name, sprite, unlocking etc..
• Allow for multiple features by adding a tag and category to GameItems. In GameItem enter number of features to create (similar to GameManager) and then allow configuration through existing configuration features.
