Question by JoshuaMarkk · Oct 26, 2015 at 11:56 AM · c#unity 5inheritancetype

Is script a child of another certain script?

So I'm working on a local multiplayer PvP kind of game and when one of the players dies I want to remove all the components that allow the player to interact with that now dead character.

Here is my Die() function:

 public void Die() {
         ArrayList toRemove = new ArrayList();
 
         foreach (var component in gameObject.GetComponents<Component>()) {
             if (component.GetType() == typeof(JAi) || component.GetType() == typeof(JAbility) || component.GetType() == typeof(JAim) || component.GetType() == typeof(JMovement) || component.GetType() == typeof(JController) || component.GetType() == typeof(JCollider) || component.GetType() == typeof(BoxCollider)) {
                 toRemove.Add(component);
             }
         }
 
         foreach (var component in toRemove) {
             Destroy((Component)component);
         }
     }
 }

It removes all components from the object that allow for the player to control the character. Now the problem is that, for example "component.GetType() == typeof(JAbility)" will return false always since I just use JAbility as a parent class of all abilities, so something like "JAbilityStab" won't get removed since it isn't exactly of type JAbility, but rather, a child.

So is there any way to check "if script A is or is a child of script B"?

Figured it out. The "is" operator does this as I want it to.

 if (JAbilityStab is JAbility)

will return true!
