Add Cysharp/R3 reactive programming support to Unity project template
This PR adds support for Cysharp/R3 reactive programming library to the Unity project template, providing developers with modern reactive extensions for Unity development.
Changes
Package Dependencies
- Added
com.cysharp.r3package via Git URL to Unity Package Manager inmanifest.json - Uses the official Cysharp/R3 repository:
https://github.com/Cysharp/R3.git?path=src/R3.Unity/Assets/R3.Unity
R3 Integration Demo
Enhanced Scene01_Intro.cs with a practical R3 demonstration:
// Added R3 reactive property for score tracking
private ReactiveProperty<int> _reactiveScore = new ReactiveProperty<int>(0);
// Subscribe to value changes with logging
_reactiveScore.Subscribe(value =>
{
Debug.Log($"[R3 Demo] ReactiveScore changed to: {value}");
});
// Integrated with existing Score property
public int Score
{
set
{
_score = value;
HudUI.ScoreLabel.text = $"Score: {_score:000}/{ScoreMax:000}";
// Update reactive property when score changes
_reactiveScore.Value = _score;
}
}
Documentation Updates
- Added R3 to the template features table in README.md with link to official repository
How It Works
The R3 integration demonstrates reactive programming in action during normal gameplay:
- Scene Initialization: ReactiveProperty subscription is established and logs initial value
- Player Interaction: When the player jumps and scores points, the Score property setter automatically triggers the ReactiveProperty update
-
Reactive Logging: Each score change is logged via the reactive subscription:
[R3 Demo] ReactiveScore changed to: {value}
This provides a practical example of how R3 can be used for reactive UI updates, game state management, and event-driven programming in Unity.
Compatibility
- ✅ Unity 6.x compliant (tested with Unity 6000.2.0f1)
- ✅ Follows existing project coding standards and structure
- ✅ Minimal changes (18 lines added across 3 files)
- ✅ No breaking changes to existing functionality
The implementation showcases R3's ReactiveProperty pattern while maintaining the template's educational focus and best practices approach.
This pull request was created as a result of the following prompt from Copilot chat.
Add Cysharp/R3 as a package dependency to the Unity project.
- Create a new branch for this work.
- Add the R3 package using the recommended Unity Package Manager method (UPM via Git URL).
- Ensure the project compiles successfully after the addition.
- Demonstrate usage: Add a Cysharp.R3.ReactiveProperty instance to any existing MonoBehaviour subclass (for example, Scene01_Intro.cs). Implement a simple value assignment and subscription to show that it works (e.g., log a message when the property changes).
- Include all necessary using statements and ensure the demo code is Unity 6.x compliant, matching the ProjectVersion.txt.
- Provide a summary of changes in the PR description.
