Cheat Sheet: Data Structures

UNITY CHEAT SHEET: 3

Unity Data Structures Classic & Native.png

Basic Collections (Managed)

Arrays: Fast, fixed-size, perfect for known collections
List<T>: Flexible size but watch for GC spikes
Dictionary<K,V>: Lightning-fast lookups, memory hungry

Common Issues:

All generate garbage collection
Can cause memory fragmentation
Performance degrades with large datasets

Specialized Unity Collections

SerializedDictionary: Editor-friendly, great for config data
ObservableList: Perfect for UI-bound collections
CircularBuffer: Ideal for command history, rolling stats
ObjectPool: Must-have for spawning systems

Issues:

More complex than standard collections
Higher memory overhead
Require careful implementation

High Performance (Native)

NativeArray: Burst-compatible, no GC overhead
NativeList: Dynamic size without the GC cost
NativeHashMap: High-performance lookups in Jobs

Issues:

Must manually manage memory (Dispose)
Not visible in Inspector
More complex to debug

Pro Tips:

Always profile before optimizing
Start simple (List/Array) before going native
Use ObjectPools for frequently spawned objects
Don't forget to Dispose() native collections!

Common Pitfalls:

Using List<T> in performance-critical loops
Forgetting to pre-allocate capacities
Missing Dispose() calls on Native collections
Over-engineering with complex structures too early

Cheat Sheet: Component Communication

UNITY CHEAT SHEET: 2

The Performance Killers:

Calling Find() or FindObjectOfType() in Update()
GetComponent() every frame
Searching entire hierarchies repeatedly
Multiple GetComponentInChildren() calls per frame

The Performance Heroes:

Cached references in Awake()
SerializeField in Inspector
GetComponent for local components
One-time initialization searches

WHEN TO USE WHAT:

1. GameObject.Find() & FindObjectOfType()

One-time setup in Awake()
Prototyping & quick tests
Not for regular gameplay updates
Not for physics or input handling

2. GetComponent<T>()

Getting sibling components
Initialization in Awake/Start
Not for every frame updates
Not for repeatedly accessing the same component

3. GetComponentInChildren<T>()

One-time setup of hierarchies
Prefab initialization
Not for continuous parent-child communication
Not for frame-by-frame checks

Pro Tips:

Cache everything you'll use more than once
Use [SerializeField] for direct references
Design hierarchies to minimize searches
Consider Scriptable Objects for global data

ALL THE COMPONENT COMMUNICATION FUNCTIONS:

Direct References

GetComponent<T>()
GetComponents<T>()

CRITICAL Pro Tips:

Awake() runs before ANY Start() - perfect for manager initialization
Never reference other objects in Awake() - they might not be ready
Physics ONLY in FixedUpdate()
Camera follow in LateUpdate()
OnEnable/OnDisable for event subscriptions
Input handling belongs in Update()
OnValidate() for inspector value validation
Use OnDrawGizmos() for debug visualization
OnMouseOver() only works with colliders
