✍️ Sample Unity Questions & Answers
1. What is a trailing stop order?
Trailing stops move with the price in a favorable direction but stay fixed when the price moves against you, automatically locking in gains.
2. The Unity Editor is in this mode, which is indicated by the red play controls:
When the Unity Editor's play controls (play, pause, stop) turn red, it indicates that the editor is in Animation Record mode. In this mode, any changes made to a GameObject's properties will automatically create keyframes in the Animation window, allowing you to easily record animations by simply manipulating objects in the Scene view.
3. In Unity's Animation system, what is an Animator Controller used for?
An Animator Controller manages the state machine that controls which animation clips play and when transitions between them occur.
4. Which function casts a ray into the scene to detect colliders?
Physics.Raycast projects a ray and reports the first collider it hits.
5. Which best describes the difference between Awake() and Start()?
Awake is called when the object initializes; Start is called just before the first Update after all Awakes complete.
6. What is the Unity Event System and why is it useful in scripts?
UnityEvent implements a publisher-subscriber pattern, allowing scripts to broadcast events without direct references to the listeners.
