Question by Ellis · Dec 16, 2012 at 01:54 PM · javascriptgameobjectdestroyfunctionprint

Wy does this destroy script not work?

var YellowFlower : int;

var YellowFlowerPick = false;

 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider){
     if(other.tag == "YellowFlower"){
         YellowFlowerPick = true;
         if(Input.GetButtonDown("E")){
             print("Destroy");
             Destroy(other.gameObject);
         }
     }
 }
 
 function Update(){
     if(YellowFlowerPick == true){
         if(Input.GetButtonDown("E")){
             YellowFlower += 1;
         }
     }
 }

I can Pick up the flowers(the YellowFlower int goes up) but I´d wont destroy it self! I don´t even get the print message! If anyone could help me and tell me what I´ve done wrong.. (I have added E to the Inputs)

OnTriggerEnter will be called in the frame when you enter the trigger. This is only called one time. GetButtonDown also returns true only in the frame where you pressed the button down. It's almost impossible to enter the trigger and press the button in the exact same frame.

I guess you want something like that:

 var YellowFlower : int;
 var YellowFlowerPick : GameObject = null;
 
 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider)
 {
     if(other.tag == "YellowFlower"){
        YellowFlowerPick = other.gameObject;
     }
 }
 
 function OnTriggerExit(other : Collider)
 {
     if(other.tag == "YellowFlower"){
        YellowFlowerPick = null;
     }
 }
 
 
 function Update()
 {
     if(YellowFlowerPick != null){
         if(Input.GetButtonDown("E")){
             YellowFlower += 1;
             Destroy(YellowFlowerPick);
         }
     }
 }

Are u sure than ontrigger enter works, seccond.. OnTrigger enter is called once, it's hard to press button on this event, use Input.GetButton, or better to use onTriggerStay fo check in input in your sample, or use input.getKey if u want =)
