Question by Abacab · May 05, 2015 at 07:23 PM · c#triggerboolean

How to make boolean be true for x amount of seconds?

Hello!

I'd like to make so that when the player enters the trigger a boolean will become true and then the boolean becomes false after 3 seconds. How do I do that?

Thanks in advance!

You can use Invoke Method like so:

 private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
 {
     YourBool = true;
     Invoke("SetBoolBack", YOUR_ELAPSED_TIME);
 }
 
 private void SetBoolBack()
 {
     YourBool = false;
 }

 public bool myBool = false;
 public bool touchingTrigger = false;
 
 void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {
      
      myBool = true;
      StopCoroutine(("SetMyBoolToFalse");
      StartCoroutine("SetMyBoolToFalse");
 }
 
 void OnTriggerStay(Collider other) {
      touchingTrigger = true;
 }
 
 void OnTriggerExit(Collider other) {
      touchingTrigger = false;
 }
 
 private IEnumerator SetMyBoolToFalse() {
 
      yield return new WaitForSeconds(3f);
      if(touchingTrigger == false) {
           myBool = false;
      }  
      yield return null;
 }
