I decided to add ChartBoost to a Unity game I was developing. I went to chartboost.com and got the unity plugin. The doco there was pretty good, but seemed to end w/ “These scripts demonstrate how to hook up exposed methods” and I wasn’t sure where to go.

I found a couple sites that helped me figure out how to do this…

Every time I do it, I can’t remember the reason I regret it and so I do it again the next time. I need to write it down… here?
