enable and disable loop objects in the scene
I would like to create a loop of activation and deactivation of objects in the hierarchy, when the game starts instantiate all objects, then they are deactivated, and through a method should reactivate every 10 seconds. I tried this code but it doesn’t work!! using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;
public class EnemySpawner : MonoBehaviour
{
public ObjectEnemyData objectEnemyData; //scriptableObject that contains the variable with the gameobject list
public EnemyData enemyData; //scriptableObject that contains the characteristics of the single object
public float startTimer = 0f;
public float spawnTimer = 3f;
GameObject go;
public void Start()
{
for (int i = 0; i < objectEnemyData.enemy.Count; i++)
{
go = Instantiate(objectEnemyData.enemy[i]);
go.SetActive(false);
}
}
public void RandomActive()
{
startTimer += Time.deltaTime;
if (startTimer >= spawnTimer)
{
int randomActive = Random.Range(0, objectEnemyData.enemy.Count);
objectEnemyData.enemy[randomActive].SetActive(true);
startTimer = 0f;
Debug.Log(randomActive);
}
}
private void Update()
{
RandomActive();
}
}

The problem is you are not referencing your instantiated objects, instead you are messing with prefabs in your ScriptableObject directly. What you could do is store every enemy instance in a separate array and work on that.
OK I think I understand the logic, you could give me a small example of code please?
Sure, there you go:
public class EnemySpawner : MonoBehaviour
{
// ...
public ObjectEnemyData objectEnemyData;
private GameObject[] _enemies = null; // the array field
public void Start()
{
// allocating the array
_enemies = new GameObject[ objectEnemyData.enemy.Count ];
for (int i = 0; i < objectEnemyData.enemy.Count; i++)
{
// set the enemies in your array when instantiating
_enemies[ i ] = go = Instantiate(objectEnemyData.enemy[i]);
go.SetActive(false);
}
}
public void RandomActive()
{
// ...
int randomActive = Random.Range( 0,
objectEnemyData.enemy.Count );
_enemies[ randomActive ].SetActive( true );
// and just use the instantiated game objects
}
I deleted some lines for clarity, hope it helps.
