C# Generics Explained - Unity Tutorial

A lot of people were having trouble understanding the Singleton script,
mainly "T" and "where T: MonoBehaviour"
(maybe not so much with the singleton pattern itself, so this is NOT a video on singletons)

If you're looking for a singleton script, check out my files here (Singleton included):

T refers to generics where you don't have to specify a single class or a method. I use T for the Singleton class because I don't know which classes are going to inherit from it (CharacterManager, VirtualInputManager, CameraManager, etc). Generics allow different managers to inherit from the same Singleton class. It's like saying "a class can inherit from Singleton, where that class has to be a MonoBehaviour".

After watching this video, if you're still having trouble understanding the code, I'll create another video for singletons.
