Timer System in GameManager with two lists
Basically I have these timers in my game that work perfectly, but they are instances in a scene. I figured that I will need some of them to work for minutes, and the player will be able to leave the scene and come back later, so I thought I would make the GameManager (which persist through scenes) to handle all timers. The problem now is I need to send the Object and TimeLeftToCompletion of the Instantiated timer to the GM, I did it with two lists, but I don't know how to say "When I add this Object relate it to its TimeLeftToCompletion."
EDIT: I have made a lot of progress (I think) but still not got it to work properly:
static List<CircularTimer> timers = new List<CircularTimer>();
static List<float> sentTime = new List<float>();
int index;
private void Update()
{
index = 0;
foreach (CircularTimer timer in timers)
{
foreach(float time in sentTime)
{
sentTime[index] -= Time.deltaTime;
if (sentTime[index] <= 0)
{
//???????????????
//sentTime.Remove(????????);
Debug.Log("TIMER IS 0!");
//HERE somehow make the current timer do its OnTimeFinished action
}
index++;
}
}
}
public static void StartTimer(CircularTimer timer, float time)
{
timers.Add(timer);
sentTime.Add(time);
}
TL:DR: How do I link the Object in list1 position 1 to the float in list2 position 1 and so on? If I manage to get this done I would have a pretty neat timer system that could work through scenes, should I upload it to the asset store for free or is it not very optimized to share it?
Im reworking all of this into coroutines in a new script that goes in the $$anonymous$$anager object, I use this same lists and the index but all inside a coroutine, I'll update if it works.
