📦 KairoEngine.UI.v0.2.8

The UI package contains the UiSystem component and the UiSystemModule. The module loads the Ui System in place which manages canvases with UI data. The system now which canvases are enabled and has a global toggle for all the game UI.

Also this package contains a set of new interface elements to be used in the design of a game. These elements are the UiAnimator, FadeTransition, FloatingText, MessageBox, ProgressBar, Tooltip, ActivityMessages, ContextMenu, ModalWindow and LoadingScreen. All these elements come with a unique style and can be tweeked or changed in to different aesthetics.

Finally the package also contains a set of standard unity UI prefabs dressed in the same style as the rest of the UI elements. These elements are the Window, Panel, Button, ToggleButtom, Checkbox, RadioButton, DropdownListButton, TextField, TextArea and Slider.

✔Getting Started

Add the Ui Module

Find or create the GameConfig file, click add new module and select the UI Module in the module type field.

Once the GameConfig is loaded on the game start, the base UI system will be instantiated in your game. This will create or find a UI GameObject inside the GameManager GameObject and add a UiSystem component to it. The rest of the game UI can be put as a child of GameManager/UI.

Interface elements

More information on the interface elements included in the UI package can be found on each elements documentation:

  • InteractionHandler – :heavy_check_mark:A set of scripts with interfaces and components for dealing with user interactions.
