Question by proman0487 · Apr 12, 2014 at 11:58 PM · 2d game

Bullets that shoot on a delay

Hello All,

I am working on a 2dSideScoller and I want one of the enemies to shot in a V pattern but I want one bullet to shot the after .2 seconds right now they both just shoot at the same time, any help would be appreciated I posted my code below

  IEnumerator Wait(float seconds){
     yield return new WaitForSeconds (seconds);
 }

 public void shootBullet()
 {
     if (gameObject.name == "FireEnemy2")
     {
         isShooting = true;
         
         Vector2 playerPosition = GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent<Transform>().position;
         
         Rigidbody2D currentBullet = (Rigidbody2D)Instantiate(bulletPrefab, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
         Rigidbody2D currentBullet1 = (Rigidbody2D)Instantiate(bulletPrefab, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
         Rigidbody2D currentBullet2 = (Rigidbody2D)Instantiate(bulletPrefab, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
         Vector3 destination = GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent<Transform>().position;
         Vector3 differencePosition = new Vector3(destination.x - transform.position.x, destination.y - transform.position.y, 0);
         Vector3 differencePosition1 = new Vector3(destination.x - transform.position.x, destination.y - transform.position.y + 0.9f, 0);
         Vector3 differencePosition2 = new Vector3(destination.x -transform.position.x, destination.y - transform.position.y - 0.9f, 0);
         

         currentBullet.AddForce(differencePosition * bulletForce);
         StartCoroutine(Wait(.2f));
         currentBullet1.AddForce(differencePosition1 * bulletForce);
         StartCoroutine(Wait(.2f));
         currentBullet2.AddForce(differencePosition2 * bulletForce);
         isShooting = false;
     }

The problem is that your coroutine is essentially doing noting. If you want to delay adding a force to your bullet, you'll need to add your code inside of the coroutine to ensure your bullet isn't fired until after the coroutine has yielded for 0.2 seconds. For example...

 private IEnumerator Wait()
 {
     // Fire first bullet here.

     yield return new WaitForSeconds (0.2f); // Wait 0.2 seconds.

     // Now that we've yielded for 0.2 seconds, fire the second bullet here.
 }

You can read more about how to properly use coroutines in JS and C# here.
