Core skills

In this section we will build up your core skill set for effective use of coroutines.

While we started with showing the difference between:

  1. Traditional asynchronous game flow driven by various game systems intertwined by game state changes or event communication all over the codebase
  2. More procedural take on suspension and continuation in a single async scope.

In next chapters we will:

  • Explain awaitables and action timelines.
  • Walk through making a simple JRPG game, where we will build coroutines for various tasks.
  • Showcase useful patterns for different scenarios to build better coroutines.
