[nitpick] Setting up .NET SDK 6.0.x may not provide optimal IntelliSense for this Unity SDK, as the code uses Unity-specific APIs (UnityEngine, UnityEditor) that aren't available in the standard .NET SDK.
For a Unity project, consider either:
- Documenting in comments that this SDK is for basic C# syntax support only
- Removing the .NET setup step if Unity-specific context isn't needed
- Investigating if Unity Editor or Unity tooling can be set up in CI for better accuracy
The current setup may give Copilot incomplete or misleading type information for Unity-specific code.

Added documentation in commit ae61b49 explaining that the .NET SDK provides basic C# syntax support, with a clear note about limitations for Unity-specific APIs (UnityEngine, UnityEditor). The setup still helps Copilot with general C# patterns and non-Unity code analysis.
