destroying a gameobject clone
I am trying to write a script for a null game object to generate a prefab model with a short animation to start off my game but after 5 seconds i need it to be destroyed so that a controllable prefab can spawn in its place. All of this works except that the first model that is spawned will not die. Can someone Please tell me what am I doing wrong?
Here is my code.
//var roverStartUp : GameObject; // Link to the startUp Rover model - not controllable var StartUpAnimation : GameObject; var playerRover : GameObject; // Link to the Player controlled Rover Model
function Start ()
{
Instantiate (StartUpAnimation, transform.position, transform.rotation);
yield WaitForSeconds (5);
Destroy (StartUpAnimation);
Instantiate (playerRover, transform.position, transform.rotation);
Destroy (gameObject);
}
You need to store the instantiate return into a variable, then destroy that, right now you're trying to destroy the prefab asset
var instantiated = Instantiate (StartUpAnimation, transform.position, transform.rotation);
yield WaitForSeconds (5);
Destroy (instantiated);
Mike, You are awesome! thank you.
