Enter/Exit Vehicle with the same key?
Hello guys,
My player can not enter and exit a vehicle with a single key:
OnTriggerStay(){
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F)){
enterVehicle();
Debug.Log("Vehicle: " + interactableObject + " Entered");
}
}
When the player is in the vehicle, the script looks again (activates following code) if the key is pressed, but immediately. Since one presses the key more than 1 frame (so the key is not released), this causes the player to exit the vehicle after he got in. LOL
Update(){
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F)){
exitVehicle();
Debug.Log("Jumped off Vehicle: " + interactableObject);
}
}
I wonder if there were a function called Input.SetKeyUp() to reset the state of the key / change it back to false. If so, I would write it underneath the enterVehicle()-command in the if-statement to prevent getting off the car in the second part.
However, this works if I ask for different keys as expected.

The problem maybe in enterVehicle(); method
Try to make a bool
if(Input.Get$$anonymous$$eyDown($$anonymous$$eyCode.F)){
incar = !incar;
}
if(incar){
enterVehicle();
}else{
exitVehicle();
}
thanks, but in the else part I control the playermovement, which needs to run every frame, so exitVehicle() runs also every frame.
Instead of putting the command for exiting the vehicle in the update function. You can make it a function of its own (for the sake of this post we will call that function (void ExitVehicle). Thus OnTriggerStay() if the keycode F is pressed. InvokeRepeat the function : void ExitVehicle() Put this InvokeRepeating on your OnTriggerStay()
//0.1f is when the function gets called after it execute that line of code.
//60.0f is, how many times it repeats the function. (because this is 60 it is the same as the (void Update)
InvokeRepeating("ExitVehicle",0.1f,60.0f);
void ExitVehicle(){
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F)){
exitVehicle();
//cancles the invoke called ExitVehicle
CancelInvoke("ExitVehicle")
Debug.Log("Jumped off Vehicle: " + interactableObject);
}
}
You also maybe want to assign some parameters to your OnTriggerStay. That will prevent weird glitches like entering a vehicle while you are miles away standing in another collider.
EDIT : and as Positive7 mentioned. you can also make a bool. (I overlooked the fact that the movementscript has to be On all the time. So you can make a bool like this.
bool VehicleEnter = false;
void OnTriggerStay(){
If(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F)&& !VehicleEnter){
VehicleEnter = true;
enterVehicle();
}
}
void Update(){
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F) && VehicleEnter){
VehicleEnter = false;
exitVehicle();
}
}
I am not sure if this code will work because I haven't tested it but if !VehicleEnter and VehicleEnter doesnt work in the ifstatement, than change them to VehicleEnter==false or VehicleEnter==true
Set the first script to GetKeyUp
