+Solution Ideas
+---------------
+
+1. Have a custom menu item in Unity called
+    Factors...
+      -> Save factor...
+      -> Load factor...
+
+    Question: Should we split technology and rendering factors?
+
+2. Have a factor view, similar to the inspector window that enables
+you to view the current factor and toggle on and off certain aspects of the factor
+and edit them
+
+3. On loading the script, print out any errors to the console

BackgroundResearch/UnityObjects.md

+The Unity editor has 4 windows:
+
+1. Project window: Displays asset library
+2. Scene view: Window that show scene. The scene is the 3D environment
+3. Hierarchy window: Displays every object in the scene in a hierarchical view.
+4. Inspector window: Displays all of the properties of the currently selected object.
+5. Toolbar: Provides access to main features, such as different controls for navigating the
+   scene and objects within the scene, starting, stopping, and stepping through the program.
+
+1. Assets
+In Unity the main types of assets are:
+  * Image files
+  * FBX and Model files
+  * Meshes and animations
+  * Audio files
+  * Custom assets
+
+2. The scene and objects within the scene can be controlled using various controls:
+
+  Hand (Activated by pressing Q)
+  ----  
+    * The hand allows us to drag the scene around.
+
+    * Eye (Hand mode + alt)
+      - Allows us to rotate the scene
+
+    * Magnifying glass (Hand mode + ctrl)
+      - Allow us to zoom in and out on the scene
+
+   Translation crosshairs (Activated by pressing W)
+   -----------------------
+     * Allows us to move objects in the scene by selecting
+       the translation arrows that appear on an object
+
+    Rotation (Activated by pressing E)
+    ---------
+    * Allows us to rotate objects in the scene by selecting the rotation arcs
+      that appear on an object
+
+    Scale (Activated by pressing R)
+    ------
+    * Allows us to change the size of objects in the scene
+
+
+3. Objects
+
+  Object hierarchy
+  -----------------
+    - In the hierarchy window, objects can be children of other objects in a scene.
+      Being a child of a parent object means that the child inherits all the movement
+      and rotation of the parent (in terms of transformations applied)
+    - To make an object the child of another object, drag that object onto the object
+      that is intended to become its parent
+
+  Objects in Unity are anything in a scene. They can be models, lights, cameras, etc.
+  In order for an object to get the properties it needs to be a camera, light, couch, etc it
+  needs to have the right components added to it. Different combinations of components will
+  give rise to different kinds of objects.
+
+  Every object in Unity has a transform component attached to it. It is not possible to remove this.
+
+  All objects in Unity are made up of:
+    - Transform component + 1 or more other components
+
+  Different component types:
+    * Transform component
+      - The component that is on every object in a scene
+
+    * Scripts
+      - Scripts can be written and added to an object as a component because scripts
+        become components when they are saved in a Unity project.
+
+Objects can be tagged. Tags enable you to find all objects with the specified tab when writing
+scripts using the GameObject.FindWithTag(tag: String) function. Note that objects can only
+have one tag applied to them.
