help with Flashlight Pickup
First and formost- I need the coding to be in JAVASCRIPT not C SHARP
Hey Guys, I've read a couple other questions related to this, but they both involved batteries. I don't want batteries for the flashlight in my game. I just want for the player to be able to walk over to a table, and click E to pickup the flashlight. BUT I do want them to be able to turn it on and of with the F key. I already have the script for the flashlight turning on and off writen, I just dont now how to incorporate the whole PICKUP part off it where they wont me able to turn it on until they pick it up. This is what I have so far.
private var lightSource : Light; var soundTurnOn : AudioClip; var soundTurnOff : AudioClip;
function Start () { lightSource = GetComponent(Light);
}
function Update () {
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.F)) ToggleFlashLight();
}
function ToggleFlashLight () {
lightSource.enabled=!lightSource.enabled;
//Audio if (lightSource.enabled) {
audio.clip = soundTurnOn;
} else {
audio.clip = soundTurnOff;
}
audio.Play();
}
@script RequireComponent(AudioSource) @script RequireComponent(Light)
For picking up the flashlight, I would do something like this:
var worldModel : GameObject;
var viewModel : GameObject;
var actualLight : Light;
var hasLight : boolean = false;
function OnTriggerEnter (other : Collider) {
if(other.name == "player name here") {
hasLight = true;
Destroy(worldModel);
Destroy(this);
}
}
function Update () {
if(hasLight == true) {
viewModel.active = true;
actualLight.enabled = true;
}
else {
viewModel.active = false;
actualLight.enabled = false;
}
}
As for turning it on and off, I would make another script.
var actualLight : Light;
var on : boolean = true;
var soundTurnOn : AudioClip;
var soundTurnOff : AudioClip;
function Update () {
if(Input.GetKeyDown("f")) {
on = !on;
if(on == true) {
audio.PlayOneShot(soundTurnOff);
}
else {
audio.PlayOneShot(soundTurnOn);
}
}
if(on == true) {
actualLight.enabled = true;
}
else if(on == false) {
actualLight.enabled = false;
}
}
what do I assign each of those scripts to? The player? The Spotlight?
Assign the first script to the trigger, and assign the second script to the player.
Ok, well I got it to where the player walks into the trigger and the flashlight vanishes and the spotlight turns on, but there are a few changes I would like to make. The "toggle flashlight" scipt isnt turning it on and off for some reason, and I want to make it to where the player presses a button to pickup the flashlight, so its not done automatically
Ok Ok, Now I have it to where the toggle works, but you can make the on and off sounds before you pick up the flashlight, how to do i change this?
Sorry about late response, but you can access the different scripts by doing something like this:
var player = GameObject.Find("player name here");
var onOff = player.GetComponent(2d script name here);
if(hasLight == true) {
onOff.enabled = true;
}
else {
onOff.enabled = false;
}
