⭐Event methods get called automatically by the Unity3D engine at predetermined times.
☀️Called only once in the lifecycle of a script ☀️Called even if the script component is disabled ☀️It is an initialization method like Start() . Called at the beginning when game objects are created and initialized. Awake() is called when the object that the script is attached to is initialized ☀️ Usage: Awake() is used to initialize any variables, properties, or game state of an object before the game starts . Initializing variables and current object properties that do not depend upon any other variable or object property. It will also create any references between scripts
Difference between Awake() and Start():
| ☀️Called before Start() | 🏁Called after Awake() |
| ☀️Called even if the script component is disabled | 🏁 Called only if script component is enabled |
| ☀️Initializing variables and current object properties that do not depend upon any other variable or object property | 🏁Initializing variables and current object properties that depend upon any other variable or object property |
☀️ Each object’s Awake() is called randomly, so don’t put code that depends on another objects properties or methods here
