How do you Raise and event using this script? EventMessenger.Instance.Raise(e);
Doesnt work.

You don't need to use it as a singleton, do you? I'd rather not have every listener have to wade through every similar event of its kind before finding what it needs.

I've tried it as a regular class and it seems to work. Any performance pitfalls as a non-singleton?

Nice~

Awesome. I was using .Contains(...) but now using your technique. Thanks!
