Override Function and add variables?

is it possible to have a function in the base class:

public virtual void StartSpawnAnimation()
    {
        Debug.Log("Test");
    }

public virtual void StartSpawnAnimation()
    {
        Debug.Log("Test");
    }

And than Override it in a derived class and add a variable:

public override void StartSpawnAnimation(bool Something)
    {
        Debug.Log(Something);
    }

public override void StartSpawnAnimation(bool Something)
    {
        Debug.Log(Something);
    }

I tried doing it myself on visual studio Community but I get an error: no suitable method found to override.

No, the signature of an override has to be the exact same as the method it's overriding. You cannot add parameters.

Alright, Thanks, Is there any way to workaround this? or should I just make a new function

Thinker•3y ago

You should probably just make a new function
