So far working through the new book Unity for Absolute beginners has been great. As I had said previously, the last book was riddled with errors but so far even though there were plenty of errors I had learned a lot and working with this new book has been great.

I also found a video created by Unity for animating anything using Mecanim. While I have found the videos published by Unity are severely lacking in specifics you can get where you need to go from the starting point they get leave you at. With that said, I should have the drawers on my dresser opening and closing using the Mecanim animation system as well as the legacy system. One piece of information the video left we with was that Mecanim is a state machine and having that knowledge leads me to believe this is the system I should be using for my game. Hopefully the next entry should have some videos with mecamin in action.
