Question by Jakess02 · Jul 08, 2017 at 10:38 AM · strange ioc

Jumpscare Need Help

Hello everyone. I am new to Unity and I need a hand with a script for a jumpscare. I have attempted it and put all the triggers etc. Here is my attempt that I try but all I get are errors

 public GameObject jumpscareObject;

 void Start () {

     jumpscareObject.SetActive(false);
 }

 void OnTriggerEnter (Collider player) {
     if(player.tag == "Player")
     {
         jumpscareObject.SetActive(true);
        
     yield return new WaitForSeconds(1.5f);
     Destroy(jumpscareObject);
     Destroy(gameObject);
 }

}

Well, maybe you should start by telling us what errors you are receiving?

And how your script is setup in your game scene.

also yield return new WaitForSeconds(1.5f); does not work unless called as a coroutine.

Very difficult to help when you don't tell:

  • what exactly you want the code to do

  • what it is doing wrong now - what is the problem you are having

  • what are the errors you say you are getting

Like @ShadyProductions said, you need to use a coroutine if you want to use the delay. I would reorganize what you have above like this:

 public GameObject jumpscareObject;
 
 void Start()
 {
     jumpscareObject.SetActive(false);
 }
 void OnTriggerEnter(Collider player)
 {
     if (player.tag == "Player")
     {
         StartCoroutine(DoTheSpook());
     }
 }
 
 IEnumerator DoTheSpook()
 {
     jumpscareObject.SetActive(true);
     yield return new WaitForSeconds(1.5f);
     Destroy(jumpscareObject);
     Destroy(gameObject);
 }

Hope that helps!

 IEnumerator OnTriggerEnter (Collider player)
 {
     if(player.tag == "Player")
     {
          jumpscareObject.SetActive(true);
         
          yield return new WaitForSeconds(1.5f);
          Destroy(jumpscareObject);
          Destroy(gameObject);
 
     }
 }

OnTriggerEnter can be used as a coroutine just give it the proper return type.
