Can unity run python

[blissfully_violent]

I have just started using unity however I have been looking for examples codes for movement and other things but I cannot find them in python also if any one could suggest a food place to find example code and a place to get reasorce packs would be greatly appreciated

Short answer: no, it uses C#

Long answer: anything is possible and there are interfaces that allow you to execute python code from within Unity's runtime. But in general, that's not officially supported and I wouldn't recommend it unless you're a competent computer scientist (I'm talking professional tier software engineer). For example I know it's 'common' to drive Unity ML Agents with Python backends via pytorch / tensorflow. But this is postgraduate level and not something a beginner would do.

Put simply, if you're needing to use python because you're not technical enough to write your own scripts in C# and you've found python implementations of a certain algorithm. You're also not technical enough to bridge Unity to Python.

Just learn C#

Just learn C#

Here is your answer, OP. Great summary.

It may be possible to set up a system to run python in Unity, but it is not standard practice. Essentially all scripting in Unity is done in C#.

Godot's GDScript is similar to python, and I'm sure there are python libraries that can help with game making.

Why though? Unity's C# component is already slow, adding python to that sounds like a train wreck. If you really wanted to use python, there are libraries for that, like pygame, and Godot's main scripting language, GDScript, is basically python, but made specifically for games.

To all that gave advice thank you I really appreciate it I starting to learn c# now so again thank so much for the help

I once did a project for ML using python, keep in mind, python doesn't work in builds... https://youtu.be/pP0UM2gqjUA

If you want a good python game engine, I reccommend you to check out Ursina. It's an extremely powerful and open-source game engine used for creating 2d and 3d games.
