How do I create a bunch of player abilities, with their own properties?
What I'm trying to do is create some kinds of list or enum to hold a bunch of premade player abilities. Currently I have:
public enum Abilities
{
NormalShoot,
MultiShot,
Blink,
FreezingFire,
RapidFire,
SelfRepair,
}
Which was okay when using abilities was extremely basic - I could just use Abilities.MultiShot when I was trying to use that ability. The issue is I want some abilities to have an energy cost associated with them.
The only solution I could come up with was having an array of Ability objects (a class I would create with all the properties in in), but I don't think it's a good way to go about this.
What would be the best way to go about this?
what it is not clear to me is: do you need to have each ability enabled but with different energy costs per player or rather to ENABLE different abilties at libitum for each player or both cases?
Create a property drawer.
Unity Technologies also has a tutorial on how to create a property drawer.
A property drawer doesn't seem like it would help. Both those links say it's for UI and custom inspectors. All I wanna do is be able to create something like an Ability class, but have an enum or something similar of Abilities - I don't need to be able to create anything in the inspector or anything.

in this playlist watch video 5th i think this is exactly what you need !!!
He is using a Parameter class, applying different Parameter to different scenarios there by having multiple Parameter class for multiple scenarios.
You could create a dictionary which is an array with 2 variables.
I'm still kind of confused. Are you looking for something like this (from the tutorial I posted above)?
It's an oldie but still a goodie, especially for someone learning C#:
