How to 'mock' fluid mechanics?
Hey everyone,
So let me first explain what I'm trying to achieve, and then what I tried. There is a sorting game where you need to match your colored liquids between bottles. Game idea is not super important right now, and I easily can code the algorithm for that. I am doing this project because it looks simple to code (except this problem) and I wanted to see if this is really simple or not. Also, I can always learn something. So basically, not commercial.
But the problem I have is that illustrating the liquid animations in those bottles. It is pretty hard for me to explain, so please take a look at this 1-min video
[Game Link Video - Bottle Fluid Animation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib02Xcn0cA8)
As you see, fluid does not predent as a super realistic fluid. So, this is what I want actually, because when I look at fluid tutorials in 2D (like CodeMonkey's here: [CodeMonkey - Simple Liquid Simulation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8v4DRhHu2g)), I see few problems about implementing this in my project:
* First, this would be a problem because I want this game to be fast-playable. Meaning that, of course this game is not hypercasual, but still, I want the "fluid transfer" between bottles as fast as possible.
* Secondly, he is using a technique where a game object is copied over and over, and I don't think it is healthy for mobile gaming that's resource intensive.
* Finally, also due to Reason2, the fluid willnot stabilize its upper part precisely horizontal, meaning that there will be little waves before fluid calms down, which contradicts what I want in Reason1.
Therefore, can you please help me or suggest some resources about this? I'm really interested in this part, other than that, this is probably a stack implementation, where each bottle has its own stack etc. However, this part is really confusing for me. Thanks in advance.

Filling a maze with water
I'm trying to make a 2d platformer game where you are trying to reach to the top before water catches up and drowns you in kind of a vertical maze. I want the water to start at the bottom and slowly rise and fill the corridors of the maze. No matter how much I try I wasn't able to code this in a way that doesn't glitch awfully or break my system. Is it possible to do this in Unity? If so does anyone know what would be the best approach? I'm new to Unity so I don't really know much of additional and community tools, so if there is any you can recommend me that may help I would appreciate it too.

Checking collision points' direction does not return the correct value
I have a bool for each direction(except upwards, because I don't need that for what I'm making at the moment), and what I tried to do was:
-set all 3 bools to false
-every point sets the corresponding bool to true, if it exists
this was supposed to update whether or not the player is colliding in each direction each frame, however if the player is colliding in 2 directions at the same time, only one bool will return true. Both Debug.DrawRay and Debug.Log work correctly every time, and the bools are never changed anywhere else in the code. Could anyone help with what's wrong with the code?
void OnCollisionStay2D(Collision2D other)
{
isCollidingDown = false;
isCollidingLeft = false;
isCollidingRight = false;
foreach (var item in other.contacts)
{
Debug.DrawRay(item.point, item.normal * 100, Color.white, 0.3f);
if (item.normal == Vector2.up)
{
isCollidingDown = true;
Debug.Log("down");
}
if (item.normal == -Vector2.right)
{
isCollidingRight = true;
Debug.Log("right");
}
if (item.normal == Vector2.right)
{
isCollidingLeft = true;
Debug.Log("left");
}
}

Help with my game
Hi, this is my first project in unity and been trying to do it with chatgpt and watching yt videos, but can't find anything similar to what I have in mind and chatgpt was useless with the code. Basically what i want to do is a trading game. So far i have made the prefabs I need and have a CVS file with data that has open close high low and time, i want to display a candlestick chart. I've spent hours going through the unity documtation but can't make sense of anything tbh and it just puts me to sleep reading them.
I'd appreciate any tips on writing a script to generate the candlestick chart, as I want to just have a functional chart first before i start figuring out how to add game elements.

I´ve tried changing almost every setting possible, so some things may look strange i guess. Would really appreciate some help.

Best Unity beginner course between this two in Udemy?
I already know basic C# programming language (Thanks to Microsoft Learn) and I'm heading to learning Unity now. However, I'm torn between these two courses in Udemy:
1. The Ultimate Guide to Game Development with Unity (Official)
https://www.udemy.com/course/the-ultimate-guide-to-game-development-with-unity/
2. Complete C# Unity Game Developer 2D
https://www.udemy.com/course/unitycourse/
If you have any experience with these courses, which one is worth the time? Thanks!

Video Player Pauses When Moving Mouse Quickly
Hey, so im having this problem with my video player, in the editor everything works fine however in an actual game build if i move the mouse kind of quickly the video will pause until the mouse has stopped.
I am using the render in texture and have also tried toggling skip on drop but none of that seems to work.
Im wondering if anyone else has had this problem and found a solution
