Website may be up and down over next few months. I'm currently doing a complete overhaul of everything. Going back to simple individual .htm pages, new overall site theme, sanitizing and cleaning up html of all pages and blog posts, attempting to implement a new tooling and publishing system etc etc.

If you are writing custom scripts there may be situations where you don’t want the same component added more then once to a game object. For such situations Unity provides the DisallowMultipleComponent attribute that you can specify in your scripts code.
