Skipping over timer
Hello, I have a system where when the game starts a gui will say "foo" and after 5 seconds it change's to "bar", but its just going to bar without waiting 5 seconds.
Code
void Update () {
text1.text = "foo";
wait (5);
text1.text = "bar";
}
IEnumerator wait(int time)
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(time);
}
That's not quite how Coroutines work, and you can't do waiting directly inside Update.
Try this:
void Start()
{
StartCoroutine(FooBar(5));
}
IEnumerator FooBar(float time)
{
text1.text = "foo";
yield return new WaitForSeconds(time);
text1.text = "bar";
}
I moved the StartCoroutine call to Start because you don't want to call that every frame or you'll be starting a new coroutine each frame. If you need to start it in Update then you'll want some condition in place so it only starts it when needed.
