Development Environment
Hello,
I'm beginning with Unity and I have a question about development environment. I'm used to work with Visual Studio and SourceSafe or SVN at work. Is there an integrated tool or a reference tool to do the same with unity ?
Thanks for your help.

Well if you are on Windows you can use Visual Studio if you like. You can buy a license for a source control system from Unity - or you can use something else like GIT but it isn't so easy as Unity stores lots of big binary files - so their own version is probably better (I can't tell you for sure because I don't use it yet).
MonoDevelop is shipped with Unity, think of it as an Open Source version of Visual Studio - it's nowhere near as polished yet, but it works well and every version has got a lot better in my experience. You'll miss some of the refactorings, but intellisense is good, navigation works well and the debugger is integrated.
Thanks for your answer and your advice about using this system :)
