Unity 2D More Precise Default PolygonCollider2D
How do i make the polygon collider 2D have closer points to the outline that i see in the editor when i select a sprite.

In the image you can see that the red outline is from the editor window when i select the gameobject with the sprite renderer and the green outline is the default Polygon Collider 2D outline when i add it. I dont want to edit individual polygon colliders manually because it would take at least 10 hours for the amount of objects i have.
Thanks for any help.

Probably a tale as old as time, but we're having a lot of issues with Unity breaking the appearance of Pixel Art in our game (Settings in the fourth image). Any insight?

Did Unity really just break all their old forum posts?
One of the best things about Unity is that googling any issue gives you almost instant answers from forums, generated over many years. This is better and more effective than any documentation. They just broke all old posts without having them redirect to a copy or archive of it. I saw Unreal do this and become so much harder to work with... how can they be so ignorant?

Are the forums dead for anyone else?
Hello,
Since this morning I cannot access ANY post on the forum, and those are always the first results on Google when I look for help.
Every page returns "Oops! That page doesn't exist or is private".
I see posts with names that look like my issue but I can't check them out.
Is it something on my end?
Thanks.

UnityEssentials Course - My thoughts after returning to Unity 4+ years later
Background
About 4 years ago, I was in university and using Unity pretty much on the daily. It started out as side projects and then I wound up getting an internship where about 50% of my work was done on the platform. Fast-forward to now and it has been a very long time since I have used it. I re-entered my hobbyist game-dev phase recently and decided to fire it up again only to find that... I remember nothing? lol
So I made the decision to start learning again with Unity Pathways to get my feet wet again.
The Course
Overall, the course is a solid introduction to Unity's controls and interface. It did an excellent job of making me comfortable navigating the UI again.
While I am an experienced programmer, I don't think there would be many issues getting up-and-running if you don't have any experience. That being said, I do think that it is important to go into this with some knowledge of C#.
How Long Does It Take?
The course -- estimated to take about 2-weeks -- can be completed much faster than that. I have seen other posters mention the seemingly-random time estimates on these tasks before, but in my experience this is true of any e-learning platform. For me, I was able to complete it in about 3 days, only spending an hour or two each day.
What Will You Learn?
Well, that depends! For me, it re-strengthened my foundational understanding of Unity, its interface, and the GameObject system. For someone who has never spent a minute on the platform, here are some things you can expect to learn:
How to navigate around Unity's UI
Core concepts of how the engine functions
How to create a scene (level) in 2D and 3D
How to publish your game to the web
How to build your games to a desktop app
Fundamentals of 2D and 3D game mechanics in Unity
Overall, this course will definitely make you more than comfortable in starting your journey.
Final Thoughts
Love them or hate them, the Unity Pathways seem to offer a genuinely solid approach to learning the Unity Engine. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone new to Unity, or alternatively those, like me, returning after some time.
However, I would love to hear what anyone else thinks about the pathways. Do any of you have differing experiences than mine? Did they set you up with the necessary skills to get started?

I modified the kenney pack
When I was younger, I used to dream of creating a pirate game, because the pirate movie from the Caribbean had inspired me a lot. A few days ago, I came across the kenney pack "monochrome pirates" the license allows me to modify and share it, so I colored it because I prefer a pirate world in color, so I hope it will help just one of you.
