Question by PegasiStudios · May 28, 2016 at 05:23 AM · booleanboolbooleansfalsetrue

If statement not working

I'm having an issue with a script I'm working on. I have made it so that when the character enters a certain collider, the boolean is set to true, but when it is true, the character won't instantiate the cube that i set within the variable. I'm pretty sure it's a mistake in my coding, but I don't know exactly what I'm doing wrong. #pragma strict

 var fireball : GameObject;
 var ShootFireballs = false;
 function Start () {
 }
 
 
 function OnTriggerEnter (Other : Collider){
  
  if(Other.gameObject.tag == "fireflower"){
      ShootFireballs = true;
  
  }
  }
   
  
        if (ShootFireballs == true) {
      if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.E))
         Instantiate(fireball, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
         }

Is your if statement inside of update? from the code you posted it's not within a function.

Try this:

 var fireball : GameObject;
 var ShootFireballs = false;
 
 function Start () {
 }
 function OnTriggerEnter (Other : Collider){
     if(Other.gameObject.tag == "fireflower"){
         ShootFireballs = true;
     }
 }
 function Update(){
     if (ShootFireballs == true) {
         if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.E))
             Instantiate(fireball, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
         }
     }
 }
