How To

Usage

• Start a 'Task' on your MonoBehaviour with this.StartTask(...).
• The task then runs 'on' your MonoBehaviour meaning it gets paused when your MonoBehaviour is disabled and it gets stopped when your MonoBehaviour gets destroyed.
• This means that inside your task you don't need to worry about being destroyed.
• Any exceptions that happen inside your Task are reported to the Unity log, so no silent failures.

Basic example

using System.Threading.Tasks;
using UnityEngine;

class MyClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        this.StartTask(RunAsync);
    }

    async Task RunAsync()
    {
        while (true)
        {
            Debug.Log("Running...");
            await Task.Yield();
        }
    }
}

This example will print Running... every frame when the component is enabled and will stop when the component gets destroyed.
