Procedural Generation: Endless Runner Unity Tutorial (Updated 2023)

Hey friends! Let's learn how to generate infinite levels and platforms in Unity with Procedural Generation! This is a follow-up to a video I made about Subway Surfer, and I thought this would be a good overview on how procedural generation works.

[@hefferwolff3578]

Wonderful tutorial!!!

[@marijapopovic8173]

Girl I love you, you know how to explain things

[@RigorMortisTortoise]

Thank you so much! 🥹 Glad I could help

[@Zephyrs_Domain]

Great tutorial as always, cool to learn how things work! ❤ 🔥

[@RigorMortisTortoise]

Thank you! 🙌

[@EpikF1shy]

Your videos are really nice and helpful, I believe the curve World effect helped me solve a problem in my game. But actually in Subway Surfers the character rather moves instead of the world. I’ve been able to move the camera in the game away from the character and can confirm that the player rather moves which is what I’ve been doing in my game. But this tutorial was actually really interesting, good vid.

[@akRedmage]

Do you have any issues with Z-fighting when you spawn the prefabs over each other, or is that something you fix later?

[@VeryTori]

When I add the RigidBody to the road prefab, the sections push each other up or down if you look at the scene from a side view. How can I fix this?

[@NooB20.0]

Can you add random cat generate on? pls

[@hey1tsla]

i want to , like generate new platforms rather than same one ? can anyone help

[@Mcjagger2023]

Can we get a possible update/re-go over of this? a bit slower, more in depth/detailed? with better steps some feel like they were skipped over. I tried this and the script just seemed to not work at all for me.

[@iangraham6730]

Are you going to continue with this??

[@bobwonch]

When the road section is destroyed I get a MissingReferenceException MissingReferenceException: The object of type 'GameObject' has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it. Your script should either check if it is null or you should not destroy the object. If I check for null then my SectionTrigger stops working.

[@ambroisegalle7110]

In the SectionTrigger script you need to drag and drop the prefab from the Project folder, and not from the scene, into the public section

Just underneath the heart on your icon you need to put the letter "S" because you are SUPER!!!

@@RigorMortisTortoise Like is such a strong word actually, let's just say I LOVED IT!

[@tgerm]

The destroy wall is not working for me

[@Haha-vw3ff]

Whenever I put a rigid body on my prefab it makes the box trigger, trigger twice and it spawns two levels.

[@Haha-vw3ff]

@@Mo-zm7eo This was a long time ago so im not sure but I think it was because the character controller and rigid body both have a collision capsule on them so it triggers it twice.

[@simonsobo4644]

I hope you’re okay. I’m kinda worried about you because I’ve been trying to find an alternative to Patreon to pay you for your lessons. By sheer chance I was able to cancel my Patreon subscription but I meant it when I told you I was grateful to you and I want to contribute. Do you have a PayPal or Venmo account? Please let me know so that I can keep my promise to you. Simon

[@RigorMortisTortoise]

Hey Simon I really appreciate the support and your intention but there's really no need! Thank you though I appreciate the thought

[@simonsobo4644]

I promised you I’d be a loyal Patreon follower but I canceled for two reasons. First, I was having so much trouble with Unity itself I gave up on it as my game engine of choice. (I accidentally discovered Unity works much better on a Mac through Google Chrome.) The second reason is because I’ve had nothing but trouble via Patreon. What I was hoping for was for me to be able to pay you the money I promised without Patreon. Can I send you money through PayPal? Please let me know. Simon

[@MaskedYemeni1]

hey coud u write all the code to me in the comments and pin me for others to know the script?

[@BotterFingers]

Next time work slower, and show everything you do. The basics of Tutorials

[@thepsychicpeach8425]

Then watch more videos. Its literally less than 10 mins and she shows you EVERYTHING. How bad is your attention span.
