What happens if I forget to await a MessageBox?

If you don't use await, the dialog will show but your code will continue executing immediately, which may lead to logic errors in your gameplay flow.

Can I use it for simple notifications?

Yes, by passing a null or empty string to the cancel parameter, you can create a single-button notification dialog.

Is MessageBox mobile-friendly?

Absolutely. It includes automatic object pooling to reduce GC allocs, making it highly efficient for mobile game development.

How do I handle scene transitions with MessageBox?

You should call MessageBox.CloseAll() before loading a new scene to ensure all active dialogs are dismissed and resources are managed correctly.

Does this skill require UniTask?

Yes, this skill is specifically designed to work with UniTask to provide non-blocking asynchronous modal dialogs in Unity.

Game Development

Simplifies the creation of non-blocking async modal dialogs and confirmation prompts in Unity using UniTask.

About

This skill provides domain-specific guidance for implementing user interface dialogs in Unity projects using the MessageBox pattern. It leverages UniTask for non-blocking asynchronous operations, allowing developers to await user input (like OK/Cancel or Yes/No) without blocking the main thread. By integrating built-in object pooling and lifecycle management, it ensures that UI dialogs are both performance-optimized for mobile and easy to clean up during scene transitions.

Key Features

Configurable modal dialogs for confirmations and alerts
Non-blocking async/await operations via UniTask
2,166 GitHub stars
Simplified API for OK/Cancel and notification-only prompts
Built-in object pooling for efficient memory management
Automatic lifecycle management for scene transitions

Use Cases

Creating non-blocking notification alerts after game events
Awaiting player decisions during gameplay sequences without complex state machines
Implementing 'Are you sure?' confirmation prompts for destructive actions
