    If I declare a public GameObject array in my script, compile it, then set the size field that appears in the inspector, does Unity allocate the memory for this? or do I still need to specify it in the script?

    public GameObject objectArray[] = new GameObject[10];

    Yes Unity will resize the array if you change it in the inspector.
