Enemy AI won't take Damage
I have a simple combat script set up, but everytime the prefab hits the enemy the enemies health will not go down. I could use any help I'm at the verge of giving up on this I can't figure it out.
public var path1 : Transform;
public var path2 : Transform;
public var enemySpeed : int = 6;
public var currentHealth : int = 1;
public var maxHealth : int = 1;
private var target : Transform;
private var controller : CharacterController;
function Start () : void
{
SetTarget(path1);
controller = GetComponent(CharacterController);
currentHealth = maxHealth;
gameObject.renderer.material.color = Color.red;
}
function SetTarget(newTarget : Transform) : void
{
target = newTarget;
}
function Update () : void
{
var lookAtPosition : Vector3 = new Vector3 (target.position.x, this.transform.position.y, target.position.z);
transform.LookAt(lookAtPosition);
controller.SimpleMove(transform.forward*enemySpeed);
}
function OnTriggerEnter (node : Collider) : void
{
if (node.transform == target)
{
if (target == path1)
SetTarget(path2);
else if (target == path2)
SetTarget(path1);
}
}
function ModifyHealth (change : int) : void
{
{
currentHealth += change;
if (currentHealth > maxHealth)
currentHealth = maxHealth;
else if (currentHealth <= 0)
Destroy(this.gameObject);
}
}
this is the bullet script
var shot : GameObject;
function Start()
{
}
function OnCollisionEnter(info : Collision) : void {
if(info.collider.tag == "Enemy"){
info.collider.SendMessageUpwards("ModifyHealth", -1);
}
}
function Update () {
if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
{
var porjectile = Instantiate(shot, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
porjectile.rigidbody.AddForce(transform.forward * 1500);
}
}
Have you tried taking out the void function types? I don't think they are required.
$$anonymous$$aybe, not relevant :P
In any case, you will need to add in a whole bunch of
Debug.Log("Stuff" + variables);
to see whats going on.
I don't understand could you please show me an example?
function OnCollisionEnter(info : Collision) {
Debug.Log("Collision Detected");
if(info.collider.tag == "Enemy"){
info.collider.Send$$anonymous$$essageUpwards("$$anonymous$$odifyHealth", -1);
Debug.Log("Enemy Hit");
}
}
Use Debug.Log as stated above to check whether or not the prefab actually does anything + make sure your colliders are set to trigger

Perhaps try using info.gameObject.SendMessageUpwards() instead of info.collider.SendMessageUpwards(). That should ensure that the message reaches all scripts attached to the enemy game object. You will also need to use if(info.gameObject.tag == "Enemy") instead of what you have now, because tag is not a member of collider.
