It's a simple, easy-to-use Notification System for your wonderful VR project.

Initially, I developed this package for VR Boxel Editor.

Easy-peasy:

1. Copy Git URL
2. Open Window/Package Manager
3. Add VR Notifications package via Add package from git URL

Super simple. Find the Notification Manager prefab and drop it into your scene.

I love binding SendMessage to UnityEvents to make it decoupled as much as possible.

using System;
using UnityEngine.Events;

// Create a custom Unity Event
[Serializable]
public class NotificationEvent: UnityEvent<string> {}

using UnityEngine;

public class MyScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField] private string MyMessage = "Space has been pressed.";
    // Expose the custom Unity Event in the Editor
    [SerializeField] private NotificationEvent MyEvent;

    private void Update()
    {
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
        {
            MyEvent.Invoke(MyMessage);
        }
    }
}

Also, since Notification Manager is Singleton, you can call its methods without having a direct reference to the object. Very straightforward:

private void Update()
{
    if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
    {
        NotificationManager.Instance.SendMessage("Space has been pressed.");
    }
} 

All properties are in a Scriptable Object Asset called "Notification Settings".

It is very useful to have multiple data assets when you tweak values a lot during the design iterations. You don't need to recompile the script each time you make changes.

To create Notification Settings, go to Create / Create Notification Settings. Then drop the asset to the Notification Manager.
