unity-scriptableobjects

separate

Architect Unity 6.3 LTS data and decoupling with ScriptableObjects: config/data assets, shared runtime variables, event channels, and runtime sets/registries. Use when designing data-driven systems, replacing singletons/managers, creating .asset data with CreateAssetMenu, or when the user mentions ScriptableObject, SO architecture, or data assets.

When to use

• Use when you need designer-editable config (weapon stats, level data), to share one value
• Use when the project has `*.asset` data files backed by `: ScriptableObject` classes.

When not to use

• per-instance runtime state that differs per GameObject
• saving player progress to disk
• plain DTOs that never need to be an asset
