thanks for this video, as someone who doesn't have a lot of insight into technical programing stuff I often struggle with small mistakes like these. I was using a bunch of custom events on update because it helped me make my graphs more organized but now i've fixed it

I've had this problem when trying to lerp with timer where if I pause the game (setting time scale to 0) while a timer is active said timer wont stop and keep going. because of this i've resorted to using mathf move towards instead. is this a good solution? is math move towards more taxing than timer?

Does it affect the overall performance more negatively if I have multiple script machine components on a gameobject (by following the Single-responsibility principle) as opposed to cramp every logic into one script machine?
