Add a help text box info into your inspector.

By default, you can just use:

[Help("This is some help text!")] public float example = 1000f;

You can add an optional parameter that changes the icon that appears with the help box:

• UnityEditor.MessageType.Info : The default icon.
• UnityEditor.MessageType.Error : A red error icon.
• UnityEditor.MessageType.Warning : A yellow warning icon.
• UnityEditor.MessageType.None : Removes the icon, leaving only the text.

#if UNITY_EDITOR [Help("This is some help text!", UnityEditor.MessageType.None)] #endif public float example = 1000f;
