Loading screen - Wait for script bool to be true before showing the scene?
Hi. What I'm wondering about is how can I make a loading screen that waits until a script from the scene being 'loaded' is bool true?
I have a public bool called worldGenHasFinished(), that when it's set to true it has finished loading the terrain.
How do I make it like this pattern: MainMenu scene > Loading scene (wait until worldGenHasFinished from world scene) > Load the world scene.
Please let me know if there's anything more you'd like to know or if you misunderstood anything, then I'll try and explain further.
Have you tried using a coroutine?
import UnityEngine.SceneManagement; // must use this in script
function WaitForNewScene(){
while(yourScript.worldGenHasFinished != true ){ yield;}
worldGenHasFinished = true;
SceneManager.LoadScene(nextWorld);
}
I have a Coroutine in the Update() function that then goes to IEnumerator LoadNewScene()
IEnumerator LoadNewScene() {
while (worldGenerator.worldGenHasFinished != true) {
yield return null;
worldGenerator.worldGenHasFinished = true;
Scene$$anonymous$$anager.LoadScene(scene);
}
This doesn't work. How can I get the WorldGen to "get the call" to the loading scene so that it runs?
I'm not getting the Debug.Log message from the script that tells that WorldGen is working.
I called the WorldGenerator script and then got the component of it in the Start() function
private WorldGenerator worldGenerator;
void Start() {
worldGenerator = GetComponent<WorldGenerator> ();
}
The WorldGenerator script has a Coroutine aswell that starts the whole process, maybe that's what I need to call? Not sure how you call a Coroutine though.
