Unity 5 Game Optimization

Summary

This chapter introduced you to many methods of improving your scripting practices in the Unity Engine, with the aim of improving performance if (and only if) you have already proven them to be the cause of a performance problem. Some of these techniques demand some forethought and profiling investigation before being implemented, since they often come with introducing additional risks or obfuscating our codebase for new developers. Workflow is often just as important as performance and design, so before you make any performance changes to the code, you should consider whether or not you're sacrificing too much on the altar of performance optimization.

We will investigate more advanced scripting improvement techniques later, in Chapter 7 ...
