Question by abers1997 · Sep 23, 2017 at 05:48 PM · raycastarrayinspector

How to store inspector values of script into array for later use?

I'm making a vehicle selection menu where you select your vehicle and said vehicle's stats are stored in an array for later use.

So we have:

  • vehicle[0]

  • vehicle[1]

  • vehicle[2]

Each vehicle has this script attached to it:

 public class Unit : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public Item item1;
     public Item item2;
     public float damage;
     public float speed;
     public Armor armor;
     public Health health;
     public Fuel fuel;
     public Range range;

A raycast script detects what vehicle we're looking at in the selection menu:

     void Update () 
     {
         RaycastHit hit;
 
         if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position, transform.forward, out hit))
         {
             if (hit.collider.gameObject.name == "ChildPlatform0")
             {
                 ApplyValues0();
             }
         }
         //scene view raycast visual
         Vector3 forward = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward) * 10;
         Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, forward, Color.yellow);
     }
     //if Ready button is pressed, apply selected values to ?imaginary array?
     public void ApplyValues0()
     {
         if (readyButton.readyPressed)
         {
             Debug.Log("Values0 applied");
             childPScript.childP[0].GetComponent<Unit>();
             //I'm stuck here
         }
     }

How would I store all the values that were set in the inspector into a new array (I guess we can call the array "ReadyPlayers[]"

Good day @abers1997 !

You should learn about Lists. They are like arrays but you can modify it adding/subtracting elements.

When a value is set, save it in this list.

That would be a super practical option. I felt more comfortable using arrays to achieve the above, but I'll definitely familiarize myself with lists and dictionaries.
