I’m at present engaged on the PlayerController for my 2D Fighting Game in the meanwhile

Here’s my code:

utilizing System.Collections;
utilizing System.Collections.Generic;
utilizing UnityEngine;

    }

    public void PlayMove(Moves transfer, int ComboPriority) //Get the Move and the Priority
    {

            }
            else
                return;

            //Print Move in Debug Log (To be modified with precise assault animations)
            swap (transfer)
            {
                case Moves.LightPunch:
                    Debug.Log("Light Punch");
                    break;

The precise motion, dashing, and floor detection logic I coded for myself, however for the animation and combo stuff/All the transfer debug logs, it is a mixture of those two tutorials:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBkiSJ5z-hE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avl2bSyL9ZA

I’ve all of the elements off the Combo system tutorial, so Moves, ControlManager, Moves Enum, and the ScriptableObjects for each love with their properties. The Debug Logs in my Script are to get replaced with animations too

I took a glance into state machines in Unity, as state machines are undoubtedly one of the best ways to deal with characters in a combating recreation, and I actually like the way in which it’s dealt with on this tutorial, utilizing enums and Switch Statements because it’s one thing I’m used to coming from Gamemaker Studio 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=db0KWYaWfeM

Has anybody bought any recommendation on turning my code to suit this type of state machine? The means my code is now, I’m nervous that if I proceed happening this route it will ultimately flip into spaghetti code with too many if statements and whatnot.
