SimpleEvents

A simple message based eventsystem for unity

Usage

Just attach the SimpleEvents.cs script to a GameObject in your scene. Done!

Supported Datatypes

The SimpleEvents.cs script supports all data types by using an array of objects. This means that you can pass any type of data with an event.

Examples

Example 1 - Simple Event

Call Simple Event

using UnityEngine;
using SimpleEvents;

public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    void SomeMethod()
    {
        SimpleEvents.Event("sampleName");
    }
}

Listening for Simple Events

using UnityEngine;
using SimpleEvents;

public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void OnEnable()
    {
        SimpleEvents.onEvent += SimpleEventReceived;
    }

    private void OnDisable()
    {
        SimpleEvents.onEvent -= SimpleEventReceived;
    }
  
    void SimpleEventReceived(string eventName, object[] values) 
    {
        if (eventName == "sampleName")
        {
            //do Something...;
        }
    }
}

Example 2 - Simple event with integer value

Call Simple Event with integer value

using UnityEngine;
using SimpleEvents;

public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
  void SomeMethod()
  {
      SimpleEvents.SimpleEvent("sampleName", 123, 4.5f);
  }
}

Listening for Simple Events

using UnityEngine;
using SimpleEvents;

public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void OnEnable()
    {
        SimpleEvents.onEvent += SimpleEventReceived;
    }

    private void OnDisable()
    {
        SimpleEvents.onEvent -= SimpleEventReceived;
    }
  
    void SimpleEventReceived(string eventName, object[] values) 
    {
        if (eventName == "sampleName" && values.Length == 2 && values[0] is int intValue && values[1] is float floatValue)
        {
            //do Something with intValue and floatValue...;
        }
    }
}

troubleshooting

If something does not work, make sure you have added the SimpleEvents script to an active GameObject in your scene.
