For loop only detecting duplicates of the first element in a list of GameObjects
I have a list of GameObjects, and I have a for loop that goes through the list each time to remove duplicate objects that have the same name. The for loop below only seems to be pointing out the duplicates of the first element in the list. Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thank You!
if (diskList.Count > 1)
{
for (int disk = 0; disk < diskList.Count; disk++)
{
for (int stepper = 0; disk < diskList.Count; stepper++)
{
if (diskList[stepper].name == diskList[disk].name)
{
if(stepper != disk)
{
Debug.Log("Dup Found: " + diskList[stepper].name + "At position " + stepper);
}
}
}
}
}
If you always want unique instances of GameObjects, then rather than use a List, use a Hashset. It will keep only unique copies.
Also, in this case, your second loop, the middle says "disk < diskList.Count", but your iterator is stepper, so you probably mean stepper < diskList.Count
