Working with Variables and Interfaces

(…) whenever your beacon encounters a coin does it need to know what kind of coin it is at all? Or does it just need to know how many coins to add to the total?
Unless you have multiple types of Beacons that all need to be able to take coins, then there is no reason to use an interface.

Yes my Beacon need to know what enters it, plus at the moment there is just one Beacon but I want to leave open the possibility of having more as a gameplay variant.

An interface should be used when you have multiple entities in your game, that needs to have the same functionality but you don’t care about the implementation.(…)

Thanks for helping defining what an Interface is since I’m just starting out with them but this is more or less what I had in mind.

I will now watch your video out of curiosity, but I’ve never had an answer to the question: Is it even possible to make use of Variables within an Interface?

I sincerely appreciate that you’re taking your time to answer me!
