  • Profile System - A system for saving and loading data for multiple users in a single application.

Design Decisions

All of the assets within BUCK have been designed to be as easily implementable and adaptable as possible. As such, there are no private methods, fields or properties within BUCK and all methods have the virtual keyword (bar static classes, where this is not possible) so that everything is available within any classes that inherit from a BUCK class. Furthermore, all code source for all BUCK assets is freely available and editable, allowing for any changes to be able to the source itself if required.

No BUCK asset depends on functionality contained within any other BUCK asset, and while code and components have been provided which work with TextMeshPro and the new Unity Input System, these are optional and are no required within your project if you do not wish to use them. Furthermore, minor additional functionality does exist in some assets when another BUCK asset exists within the project's Package system, but this is again completely optional.
