Creating a Rogue-like (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity — Part 18: Implementing a Dynamic Stats System and UI

This article is a part of the series:
Creating a Rogue-like Shoot 'Em Up (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity

In earlier parts of our series, we only implemented 6 different stats on our player. Vampire Survivors, however, has many more stats than that, so in Part 15, we created a newer way to manage stats that made it easier for us to add more stats in the future.

In this part, we are going to add these stats, and create a new, dynamic, and extremely easy-to-use UI element that will automatically update itself whenever we add new stats, so we don't have to create a new UI setup whenever a new stat is added.

Creating a Rogue-like (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity — Part 15: Weapon System Revamp

This article is a part of the series:
Creating a Rogue-like Shoot 'Em Up (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity

This part of Vampire Survivors has been 2 months in the making, and it contains enough content to be split into 3 or 4 parts. Nevertheless, I decided to release it as a single part because there was no natural place I could split this part into.

This part contains a lot of advanced coding concepts that can help you take your programming to the next level if you've been following our series, because it contains a lot of reorganising of code to make our game easier to manage. At higher levels, good coding is often a matter of organisation rather than knowledge, because organising your codebase well will allow you to very easily create new content; and a poorly-organised codebase will be hell to work with when you create a lot of content. Hence, this part will be very helpful to those of you looking to take your coding skills to the next level.

In Part 15 of the Vampire Survivors series, we will be covering the rework of the weapon system so that it will be more flexible and intuitive to use. In essence, we are making the weapon system more integrated, so that our weapon data files will not be spread across multiple prefabs and data files:

Weapon data spread across multiple files. — Our weapon data for different levels was spread across multiple files, making them hard to manage.

Instead, we want all our level data, as well as our weapon evolution data, to all be kept within a single data file:

New weapon data setup — We want all our data to be contained within a single file.
