Issues with c# script, minor error that I am unsure how to fix
Hi I am having issues with the following piece of code:
{
public float minTarX = 1;
public float maxTarX = 10;
public float minTarZ = 1;
public float maxTarZ = 10;
public float tarX;
public float tarZ;
public float dampX;
public float dampZ;
int timeSwitch = 100;
public GameObject target;
void Start ()
{
CreateTarPoint();
}
void Update ()
{
if(target != null)
{
transform.GetComponent<"NavMeshAgent">().destination = target.position;
}
else
{
if(timeSwitch <= 0)
{
timeSwitch = 100;
CreateTarPoint();
}
else
{
transform.GetComponent<"NavMeshAgent">().destination = new Vector3(tarX, 0, tarZ);
timeSwitch -=1 * Time.deltaTime;
}
}
}
void CreateTarPoint ()
{
dampX = Random.Range(1.0f, 3.0f);
dampZ = Random.Range(1.0f, 3.0f);
tarX = Random.Range(minTarX, maxTarX) - dampX;
tarZ = Random.Range(minTarZ, maxTarZ) - dampZ;
}
void OnTriggerEnter ( Collider col )
{
if(col.gameObject.tag == "Player")
{
target = col.transform;
}
}
void OnTriggerExit ( Collider col )
{
if(col.gameObject.tag == "Player")
{
target = null;
}
}
}
Specifically I am having issues here:
void Update () { if(target != null) { transform.GetComponent<"NavMeshAgent">().destination = target.position; } }
Where is says: <"NavMeshAgent">().destination = target.position; I have a red error with the () parenthesis, I remove them and then I have another error with the full stop, I remove that and then I receive another error with the = symbol. I used a conversion system to bring this code to c# from Javascript. Would someone please be able to assist me? Thanks in advance.
Hi,
There might be other things, but start with removing the "" around <"NavMeshAgent">
This is to say the lines should look like this:
transform.GetComponent<NavMeshAgent>().destination = new Vector3(tarX, 0, tarZ);
As an aside, consider caching your components in the Start(), that way you won´t spend resources finding the NavMeshAgent component every frame.
Hi,
Thank you for your help, it fixed the issue I was having but the issue I am now having is this:
Error CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type float' to int'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)
This error is in relation to this line:
timeSwitch -=1 * Time.deltaTime;
You wouldn't happen to have any advice on this would you?
in the timeswitch declaration (at line 10) change int to float. C# enforces type safety. This means that once a variable has been declared (here an int) only int values can be assigned to it. On that particular line you are attempting to assign a float value to it.
Javascript does not do this, which is why it probably worked before.
Thank you very much for your help. I think I have it sorted now, although the job of this script is to make an enemy move randomly, and the enemy isn't moving with the script attached :P but thank you anyway. If you were willing to help more this issue seems to be stem$$anonymous$$g from this:
public GameObject target;
In the tutorial I used (which was made in Java) the gentleman wrote var target : Transform on that line, which I figured changing it to be a public Transform might alleviate that issue but it seems to not be perfor$$anonymous$$g the originally intended function. The cube I have attached this script to won't move, the numbers are generated but the cube remains still, I have also baked a Navmesh onto a plane.
