How to Destroy game object after a few seconds then instantiate an explosion upon death?
Hello,
I`m new to Unity and programming and i have a problem I wrote a small crappy function where my game object dies after 3 seconds and instantiate an explosion. But it instantiates the explosion when I instantiate the game object that is supposed to die after 3 seconds.
What i want is to instantiate a torpedo, destroy it after a few seconds and instantiate an explosion.
I put the instantiation in start because if i put it in Update it instantiate a crap top of explosions for some reason when my torpedo is instantiated.
Does anyone know how to approach this ? Thank you ^-^
Here is my code :
using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;
public class RocketPlayer : MonoBehaviour {
public Rigidbody rocketRb;
public GameObject explode;
public float speed;
public bool isDeadRocket;
void Start ()
{
isDeadRocket = false;
rocketRb.velocity = transform.forward * speed;
if (isDeadRocket = true) {
Instantiate (explode, transform.position, transform.rotation);
}
}
void Update ()
{
}
public void RocketDeath ()
{
Destroy (gameObject, 3);
isDeadRocket = true;
}
}
Wherever you use rocketdeath you can have a boolean after it that you can use in this class. So something like:
if (object == null) {
objectIsDestroyed == true;
}
In the class that uses RocketDeath and then use that boolean to instantiate the explosion at the death site.
