Has anyone got a Toggle key script?
Hi, I've spent countless hours trying to create a Toggle key script, I've even improved my programming skills alot from it, but I still cant create that toggle script, even when I look at other scripts with the "Toggle" element. Has anyone got a script that'll alow me to toggle a key? For instance..
I've been trying to turn this into a toggle code, if (Input.GetButton("Fire1")){ I've deleted my previous attempts so i cant show you what I've been doing sadly :( But that's what I've been working from. I'm trying to make an Object follow me when I press the "Fire1" key, In this case the LeftMouseButton.
Here's my entire code.
var targetTransform : Transform; // Transform to follow
var faceForward : boolean = false; // Match forward vector?
private var thisTransform : Transform;
function Start()
{
// Cache component lookup at startup instead of doing this every frame
thisTransform = transform;
}
function Update ()
{
if (Input.GetButton("Fire1")){
print ("Activated");
thisTransform.position = targetTransform.position;
if ( faceForward )
thisTransform.forward = targetTransform.forward;
else {
print ("NotActivated");
}
}
}
Dave A here's your Version, which isn't work either.
var targetTransform : Transform; // Transform to follow
private var thisTransform : Transform; var Active : boolean;
function Start() {
// Cache component lookup at startup instead of doing this every frame
thisTransform = transform;
}
function Update () {
if (Input.GetButton("Fire1")){
Active = !Active; // toggle this value
if ( Active )
thisTransform.position = targetTransform.position;
print ("Active");
}
else {
Active = Active; // toggle this value
if ( Active )
print ("NotActive");
}
} The Oddler here's your suggestion.
var targetTransform : Transform; // Transform to follow
private var thisTransform : Transform;
var Active : boolean;
function Start()
{
// Cache component lookup at startup instead of doing this every frame
thisTransform = transform;
}
function Update () {
if (Input.GetButtonUp("Fire1")){
Active = !Active; // toggle this value
if ( Active ) {
thisTransform.position = targetTransform.position;
print ("Active");
}
else {
Active = Active; // toggle this value
if ( Active ) {
print ("NotActive");
}
}
}}
Can anyone help me out please? The help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading.
If you want to perform an action only when the button is pressed, replace the print functions to your own functions.
var toggle : Boolean;
function Update() {
if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")) {
toggle = !toggle;
if (toggle)
print("Toggled ON");
else
print("Toggled OFF");
}
}
If you want to perform an action every update depending on the toggle value, just move the switching logic outside the input test, as shown here:
var toggle : Boolean;
function Update() {
if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
toggle = !toggle;
if (toggle)
print("Toggled ON");
else
print("Toggled OFF");
}
That's what I said in a little more words, should work perfectly !
Thank you Statement and The Oddler you helped me sort out this problem. @Statement Thank you, the bottom did the trick :).
faceForware = !faceForward; // toggle this value
if ( faceForward )
$$anonymous$$ight be because it fires twice, once for the button down and once for up. $$anonymous$$ight want to use something like Inpuy.GetButtonUp("Fire"); (check for the exact method, not sure it's called that :P)
Your code: 'if (Input.GetButton("Fire1"))' change that to: 'if (Input.GetButtonUp("Fire1"))'. This will only fire when the button goes up while 'GetButton' continuously fires, which you don't want for a toggle.
So entire code would become:
if (Input.GetButtonUp("Fire1")) { faceForware = !faceForward; // toggle this value }
if ( faceForward ) { //Do stuff }
Look at: http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/Input.GetButtonUp.html
Thanks for trying to help, But still Simmilar results. Check the Edit.
I'm a bit tired, so I can't be sure if this is what you're looking for, but I recently finished this code that makes a certain variable true when pressed, and then false when pressed again:
function Update () {
if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1") && !Active)
Activate();
if(Active && Input.GetButtonUp("Fire1"))
Active = false;
}
function Activate () {
yield WaitForSeconds(.1);
Active = true;
}
