The extra information in this section is relevant to the task.

You will also find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: " We can change the Tiling by calling the material.mainTextureScale function to set the X tile and Y tile."

A block of code is set as follows:

public var f_speed : float = 5.0;
public var loopSprites : SpriteManager[];
private var in_direction : int;

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

if (hit.collider.tag == "Key") {
    if (!b_hasKey) {
      //We hit our Key
      audio.volume = 1.0;
      audio.PlayOneShot(getKeySound);
      b_hasKey = true;
      Destroy (hit.gameObject);
    }
  }

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Click on the Continue button to break the prefab."
