Dictionary for Unity

[bdovaz]

Unity is a very famous videogame engine: https://unity.com/

Would you be willing to accept a PR to add this dictionary with words that I have found so far?

@bdovaz,

A PR is welcome, it can be done from the GitHub UI. Please add it to: dictionaries/software-terms/src/coding-terms.txt

@Jason3S I meant Unity API words that are many and are not in any official dictionary.

That why I suggested a particular dictionary for Unity

@bdovaz,

Thank you for the clarification.

If the API isn't too big, then I think we can add them to the gaming-terms package.

Here are the steps:

1. Add a new file unity-api.txt to gaming-terms/src.
2. Add a new target to cspell-tools.config.yaml.

    - name: 'unity-api'
      sources:
        - 'src/unity-api.txt'
      format: 'plaintext'
      targetDirectory: './dict'
      generateNonStrict: true
      compress: false

3. Add the new dictionary definition to gaming-terms/cspell-ext.json
4. Update README.md manual installation.

@Jason3S Can you add a game development dictionary? Playing games is not quite the same as development, and quite some terms are not engine-specific. See also my comment for Godot: #3468 (comment)

game-development.txt - generic terms in gamedev, not Unity-specific (other game engines could use it too)

aabb
bptc
cubemap
lerp
lightmap
lightmapper
lods
msdf
multimesh
occludee
premult
pvrtc
respawn
rigidbody
skybox
slerp
spritesheet
subparticle
trimesh
usemtl
wasd

unity.txt - some words I gathered that are Unity-specific:

imgui
lwrp
nicify
ugui
unitypackage

(consider them all public domain, no need for attribution)

@bdovaz and @geekley,

I created source files to add Unity Engine terms here: dictionaries/gaming-terms/src.

@geekley thank you for some of the initial terms. I have added the ones you gave to the src files.
