Question by Alaro · Mar 08, 2012 at 04:33 AM · 2denemyshooting

Shooting script (2D game Turret/enemy)

Hey i'm currently working on a 2D game, and i've gotten to a stop where I'm trying to add somekinda enemies so i've copyed a script from the ¨TornadoTwins¨ but i've got one problem, my ¨enemy¨ keeps shooting 100 ¨bullits¨ at once instead of one at a time.

I'm gonna paste the script i'm using here maybe some of you could find my problem:

var LookAtTarget:Transform;

var damp = 6.0;

var bullitPrefab:Transform;

var savedTime=0;

function Update () {

 if(LookAtTarget)
 {
         var rotate = Quaternion.LookRotation(LookAtTarget.position - transform.position);
         
         transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(transform.rotation, rotate, Time.deltaTime * damp);
         
         var seconds : int = Time.time;
         var oddeven = (seconds % 2);
         
         if(oddeven)
         {    
             shoot(seconds);
         }
     
 }

}

function shoot(seconds) {

 if(seconds!=savedTime)
 {

     var bullit = Instantiate(bullitPrefab, GameObject.Find("spawnPoint"). transform.position , Quaternion.identity);



     bullit.rigidbody.Addforce(Transform.Forward * 1000);
     
     
     savedTime=seconds;
 }
 

}

First of all, learn to format your posts properly (it's not that hard, and the preview window exists to help you make sure it looks correct before you hit the post button). Secondly, make sure all your member variables have explicitly defined types. This can help in situations where you need one kind of number, and the program thinks you're talking about a different one.

The tornado twins should open their own forum...

seconds % 2 will return true if seconds is odd, you got that one right. However, as you're down casting Time.time from float to int, you loose al the information between seconds ! Between 1s and 2s, seconds will always be 1 and odd wil be true, instantiating tones of stuff.

Take a look at coroutines, or InvokeRepeating.

okey so i'll have to change the ¨var to seconds : int = Time.time;¨ ?

¨var projectile : Rigidbody;

InvokeRepeating("LaunchProjectile", 2, 0.3);

function LaunchProjectile () { var instance : Rigidbody = Instantiate(projectile); instance.velocity = Random.insideUnitSphere * 5; }¨

instead?
