I'm using VSCode, not VisualStudio for Unity scripting. VSCode has syntax highlighting for C#, which works fine, but all the Unity related stuff like Vector3 doesn't get any highlights. I know, that you can change somehow the files, but I can't even find the C# folder in my extensions folder (There is everything else like cpp, css etc. just no c#). Would be great if someone could lead me to the folder location and how to add keywords for the highlighting.

Here is a screenshot, where you can see that float is highlighted, but Transform not.

Assuming you have the latest VSCode and have it configured for Unity development... https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/other/unity

Does Intellisense work for Unity classes? If yes, and you are just not seeing syntax colors, try a different theme. (Preferences->Color Theme)

Some of them highlight class names and some don't.

    \$\begingroup\$ Yeah Intellisense is working and I tried all the themes, but still no highlighting for variables like Transform or Vector3 and so on, I just added a screenshot. Is this working in your case? \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @TobiasW - The colorization seems to be missing from the VSCode demo page, as well. (The main gif at the top of the page.) Page, gif \$\endgroup\$
