Question by hfmiguel · Mar 15, 2018 at 07:51 PM · uicanvasloopalpha

How can i make this script work in a "loop"?

Hi, i have this code to fade in / out the panel on the canvas, currently i'm using it on two buttons, one to fade in and one to fade out. I want to make it that automatically it fades out, then in, and out, and so on for, lets say 30 seconds, but i can't get it to work. Here is the code i have. using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;

 public class UIFader : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public CanvasGroup uiElement;
 
 
 
     public void FadeIn()
     {
         StartCoroutine(FadeCanvasGroup(uiElement, uiElement.alpha, 1, .5f));
     }
 
     public void FadeOut()
     {
         StartCoroutine(FadeCanvasGroup(uiElement, uiElement.alpha, 0, .5f));
        
     }
 
     public IEnumerator FadeCanvasGroup(CanvasGroup cg, float start, float end, float lerpTime = 1)
     {
         float _timeStartedLerping = Time.time;
         float timeSinceStarted = Time.time - _timeStartedLerping;
         float percentageComplete = timeSinceStarted / lerpTime;
 
         while (true)
         {
             timeSinceStarted = Time.time - _timeStartedLerping;
             percentageComplete = timeSinceStarted / lerpTime;
 
             float currentValue = Mathf.Lerp(start, end, percentageComplete);
 
             cg.alpha = currentValue;
 
             if (percentageComplete >= 1) break;
 
             yield return new WaitForFixedUpdate();
         }
 
 
     }
 }


Thank you so much!

 public IEnumerator FadeCanvasGroup(CanvasGroup cg, float start, float end, float lerpTime = 1, int count = 1)
 {
     for( int i = 0 ; i < count ; ++i )
     {
         for( float t = 0 ; t < lerpTime ; t += Time.deltaTime )
         {
             cg.alpha = Mathf.Lerp(start, end, t / lerpTime );
             yield return null;
         }
         cg.alpha = end ;
         
         // Swap values
         start = start + end;
         end = start - end;
         start = start - end;
     }
 }

What does not work? Have you provided a value greater than 1 for the last parameter count?
