Question by niraj · Jul 20, 2013 at 01:02 PM · raycastdestroydestroy-clones

How to Destroy Individual Instance of an Object

Hi friends,

I am doing a testing where multiple instances of the game object creating in the scene with tag Name="enemy". I want to click them and destroy individually.

I have two game objects:

  • circleObject(whose instances are creating in the scene regularly with the attached EnemyScript.js)

  • playerObject(who is raycasting and finding which object got hit by ray by their Tag Name "enemy" with the attched playerScipt.js)

Now i want when the ray hits the any instance of the object circleObject that particular instance got desroyed keeping other instances remain intact.

What to include in playerSctipt.js to destroy particular instances? Please Help.

Note: All instances having tag name "enemy"

My playerScript.js :

// Script for Player

var hit : RaycastHit;

var ray : Ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition); // Get mouse position and point a ray from there

     //casts a ray against all colliders in the scene
     
     if(Physics.Raycast(ray, hit, rayDistance))
     {
         if(hit.transform.tag == tagName)
         {
         
           print("Hitting");
         
         }
         else
         {

           print("This is not an enemy");

         }
     }

On line 7, put:

 Destroy(hit.collider.gameObject);

This will destroy the specific game object hit by the Raycast(). You could also use hit.transform.gameObject.

simple, just make your prefab`s variable as public variable. for example:

 public var Enemy : GameObject;
 
 function MakeEnemy()
 {
   Instantiate(Enemy, transform.position, transform.rotation);
 }
