Question by dirtydemon · Apr 24, 2012 at 11:42 PM · c#fpsshootingdelay

adding a delay to shooting

I have tried various methods but the if adding a value for the variable burstdelay doesn't have any effect on slowing down shooting I'm stuck anyone that can help would be appricated.

  if(burstTimer < burstDelay) 
                 {
                     ERayShoot();
                     audio.PlayOneShot(ShootSound);
                     _hit.collider.SendMessageUpwards("ApplyDamage", Damage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
                     BulletsLeft--;
                     // play the sound or whatever
                     burstTimer = burstDelay;
                 
                     
             } 
         else 
             {
                 
                    burstTimer -= 0.1f;
             }

Where have you written the ERayShoot() function. You are just calling it. And what function are writing all these in?

Try:

    if(Time.time > ( lastFireTime + burstDelay) )
    {
    lastFireTime=Time.time;
    .......
    }

Setting burstDelay to 0.5 will give you a 1/2 second delay.

 var activated:boolean = true;

     function Update()
     {
         if(activated)
         {
             activated = false;
             cour();
         }
     
     }
     
     function cour()
     {
          yield waitDelay()
          activated = true;
     }
     
     function waitDelay()
     {
          yield waitForSeconds (5); //Here it waits 5 seconds.
     }


This is called a coroutine. It delays using functions, since there is no other delay method.
