Create events that fires off a coroutine from another script
Greetings, I'm making an event that does the failLevel stuff when it fires off. For that I have made a delegate
public delegate Coroutine FailGame(IEnumerator function);
public static event FailGame gameFailedEvent;
like so and I subscribed the appropriate function to it
void Start ()
{
gameFailedEvent += StartCoroutine;
}
It works when it is called from the same script like so:
gameFailedEvent(WaitThenFailLevel());
when this WaitThenFailLevel() looks like this:
IEnumerator WaitThenFailLevel()
{
CharacterController2D.playerDied = true;
if (CharacterController2D.animState != CharacterController2D.CharAnimStates.fall)
{
CharacterController2D.currentImageIndex = 0;
CharacterController2D.animState = CharacterController2D.CharAnimStates.fall;
}
CharacterController2D.movementDisabled = true;
yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.2f);
StartCoroutine(ScaleTime(1.0f, 0.0f, 1.2f));
}
It works fine here. Now, I have another object that can kill the player (dangerous times I know) and I don't want to copy paste everything again, I just want it to fire off the static event made in the script above.
I DID try making the WaitThenFailGame function
public static
and make static all my other ienumerators but I got an error named "An object reference is required for non-static field..." Hence I tried the event stuff. All well and fine, but I can't call the event from the other script because I can't pass it the function from the script mentioned. What to do now?
