Instantiated enemies not adding to kill count
Hello, I've seen a few posts about this, but nothing seems to be working
I have an "enemy" preFab and a "bullet" preFab, the bullets fire out when you click fire1, and the enemies die (Destroy) when the bullets collide with them. The enemies are being created with IEnumerator + StartCoroutine
I'm trying to retrieve when the enemy is destroyed - 6 enemies spawn at once
void OnCollisionEnter (Collision other)
{
rigidbody.useGravity = true;
rigidbody.AddForce(0,-100,0);
if(other.gameObject.tag == "enemy")
{
newKill = true;
Debug.Log("HIT");
killCount = 1;
}
}
That returns 6 "HIT"'s when the 6 enemies die, however the bool "newKill" doesn't change from false to true in the inspector - I initialize it like so:
public bool newKill = false;
which I think is the problem, I can't get this data to cross classes, which would allow me increment a killCounter in another class - "GameData"
if(newKill)
{
killCounter += 1;
newKill = false;
}
I think the problem is because the objects are instantiated and destroy to quickly??
Any thoughts?
I adjusted the size of the sphere collider surrounding my enemies, and only a few add to the kill count when they die - so I know data is being sent to my killCounter, but why not all of them?
here is the code i'm using to spawn the enemies
void Play() /**/ { StartCoroutine (SpawnWaves()); }
IEnumerator SpawnWaves()
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds (wait);
while(true)
{
for(int i = 0; i <= enemyCount; i++)
{
Vector3 spawnPosition = new Vector3 (Random.Range (48, 55), spawnValues.y, Random.Range (-spawnValues.z, spawnValues.z));
Quaternion spawnRotation = Quaternion.identity;
Instantiate (enemy, spawnPosition, spawnRotation);
//yield return new WaitForSeconds (delay * Time.time);
}
yield return new WaitForSeconds (waveDelay);
wave++;
}
}
In your killCounter class just create a public function that can be called by your enemies in their OnCollisionEnter function.
Something like:
public void incrementKillCounter() {
killCounter += 1;
}
And in your enemy class simply call that function. You will need to save an instance of GameData for your enemy to call it though or make everything static.
