Thanks! One issue I've run into sometimes in my own projects is OnCollisionEnter being called twice even though you only touched the object once.

Well its more that Monobehavior is a Class that's being strictly inherited from the Unity.Engine Namespace and Start, Update, ect.. are already declared functions within the Monobehavior class Event Method. You cant declare Methods or Functions that are already declared to prevent conflict unless you provide an [override] telling the program to use MyClass Start over the Monobehavior>Event>Start function. This is usually why people may use OnStart or MyStart to distinguish the two.

OnApplicationQuit would be useful for an autosave for in case of a crash.
