I don't get code suggestions

When i try typing the things in VS code i don’t get all the suggestions he is getting in the video i have to type everything out for myself. i installed the extensions in the beginning of the course as instructed but I don’t get the same code suggestions. the only autocomplete i get is for things i have already typed in that file. how do i get the autocomplete suggestions and tool tips.

Hi Nathan,

Welcome to our community! :slight_smile:

Please follow the instruction on this website and make sure all required extensions are installed: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/other/unity

If the issue persists, please check the console of VS Code (not Unity!). If the .NET Framework 4.7.1 (Developer Pack) is mentioned there, download and install it from the official Microsoft. Here is the link: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net471

Depending on your version of Unity, it might be that you will have to install the “Visual Studio Code Editor” package in Window > Package Manager in Unity.

Maybe you’ll have to reboot your computer. Then launch Unity again and open one of your scripts.

Did this help?

Yeah that worked, I must’ve downloaded the wrong 4.7.1 when i tried that before. Thank you so much for your help.
