Need an advise, how to find all objects with a specific name and a specific script?
So i have two scripts. Script Leaders is attached to some objests on the scene,script Follower is to move an object to objects with attached script Leaders.If i have one object everything works fine,im clicking at object for examole a cube, than im clicking at a spot,its moving to this spot. But if im having two or more objects,only one is moving or doing something.This happening i guess because its finding only one object follower = GameObject.Find("Follower").GetComponent< Follower>(); So my question is, how to make this line like to be something like an array to store information of all objects on the scene? Thanks for ant help.
public class Leaders : MonoBehaviour
{
private Follower follower;
void Start ()
{
follower = GameObject.Find("Follower").GetComponent< Follower>();
}
void OnMouseDown()
{
if(follower.selected == true)
{
follower.v3Dest = transform.position;
follower.selected = false;
}
}
public class Follower : MonoBehaviour
{
public Vector3 v3Dest;
public bool selected = false;
public float speed = 5.0f;
void Start ()
{
v3Dest = transform.position;
}
void Update ()
{
transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position,v3Dest,Time.deltaTime * speed);
transform.LookAt(v3Dest);
}
void OnMouseDown()
{
selected = true;
}
}
look at GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag
you will need to use tags ins$$anonymous$$d, but it should give you all the objects you want
It's way easier to directly search for your Follower scripts. Just use FindObjectsOfType:
public class Leaders : MonoBehaviour
{
private Follower[] followers;
void Start ()
{
followers = FindObjectsOfType(typeof(Follower)) as Follower[];
}
void OnMouseDown()
{
foreach(var follower in followers)
{
if(follower.selected == true)
{
follower.v3Dest = transform.position;
follower.selected = false;
}
}
}
}
ps you might want to rename your "Leaders" class to "Leader" because one instance is just a leader ;)
But i guess for is faster,so im using:
for(int i = 0;i<followers.Length;i++)
{
if(followers[i].selected == true)
{
followers[i].v3Dest = transform.position;
followers[i].selected = false;
}
}
But Thank you :D
GameObject.Find() finds only one GameObject. With GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag() you can find every Game Object with a specific tag.
Beware: Find functions are very slow and shouldn't be used too often (or even repetitively in Update()...)
