Question by Balint3DDesign · Nov 06, 2012 at 12:58 PM · animationcollisiongameobject

How could it be done "Cooldown" for a shield ?

Hi ,there! If that's not a lot to ask , i wanted to make that if i press the space button once then it needs to be disabled/blocked for like 22 seconds , because the power on and off animation duration is about that much time . So when the 22 seconds is over then it can be re-enabled so and it's start over again .

Here is the script so far :

 #pragma strict
 
 private var coolingDown;
 
 function Update () {
  if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Jump")){
 SwitchTrigger();
 EndCooldown();
   }
   if (!coolingDown)
 
   {
     coolingDown = true;
 
     Invoke("EndCoolDown", 22.0f);
 
   }
 }
 
 function EndCooldown()
 {
   coolingDown = false;
 }
 
 function SwitchTrigger() {
   renderer.enabled = true;
   collider.enabled = true;
   animation.Play("Shield_On");
   yield WaitForSeconds(10);
   animation.Play("Shield_Low");
   yield WaitForSeconds(2);
   renderer.enabled = false;
   collider.enabled = false;
 }

I hope that everything is clear, and thanks in advance :)

You have almost got it right I believe.

 #pragma strict
 
 private var coolingDown;
 
 function start () {
 coolingDown = false;
 }
 
 function Update () {
      
      if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Jump") && coolingDown == false){
     SwitchTrigger();
     coolingDown = true;
     Invoke("EndCoolDown", 22.0f);
       }
       
 }
 
 function EndCooldown()
 {
   coolingDown = false;
   ReversedSwitchTrigger()
 }
 
 function SwitchTrigger() {
   renderer.enabled = true;
   collider.enabled = true;
   animation.Play("Shield_On");
   yield WaitForSeconds(10);
   animation.Play("Shield_Low");
   yield WaitForSeconds(2);
   renderer.enabled = false;
   collider.enabled = false;
 }
 
 function ReversedSwitchTrigger() {
     // code for the reversed actions of SwitchTrigger.
 }

I also guess that you want to reverse the effects of the shield as it disappears.

Enjoy

Thanks for your help . But with this script it doesn't enable the mesh renderer or the collider for some reason .

You can call the EndCooldown() function directly from the animation. I think it's a LOT easier in your case.

I think you need to elaborate :) (maybe It's something I can use)
