Collecting x amount of items triggers event?
So, i have a points and pick up script, the things collected have the tag of Coins. When i collect x amount of coins i want to trigger an event such as when character collects 10 'coins', the wall of cubes disappears? I have no idea how to do this.
My pick up code is:
var score = 0; var scoreText = "Score: 0"; var mySkin : GUISkin;
function OnTriggerEnter( other : Collider ) { Debug.Log("OnTriggerEnter() was called"); if (other.tag == "Coin")
{ Debug.Log("Other object is a coin"); score += 1; scoreText = "Score: " + score; Debug.Log("Score is now " + score); Destroy(other.gameObject); } else { score +=5; scoreText = "Score: " + score; Debug.Log("Score is now " +score); Destroy(other.gameObject); } }
function OnGUI () { GUI.skin = mySkin; GUI.Label (Rect (10, 10, 500, 200), scoreText.ToString()); }
Place the score check at the end of your OnTriggerEnter function, and set the object you'd like to destroy in the inspector.
var wall : GameObject;
// Check if over X amount and if so destroy the object set as 'wall' if(score >= 10) Destroy(wall);
I've just tried, that and it isn't destroying the item defined as the wall.
You must have a function to "pick up a coin". By your "points" I assume that every time a coin is picked up a point is added.
So in your function which "adds a point" you would want to do a check to see how many total points the player has. In this code I'm assuming your player coin count is a var called "playerCoins":
function pickUpCoin()
{
//all your coin picking up code
if (playerCoins == 10)
{
DoSomething(); //call the function to do something (destroy wall etc)
}
}
If you want something more in depth then edit the question and add your current code.
EDIT:
function OnTriggerEnter( other : Collider ) { Debug.Log("OnTriggerEnter() was called"); if (other.tag == "Coin")
{
Debug.Log("Other object is a coin");
score += 1;
scoreText = "Score: " + score;
Debug.Log("Score is now " + score);
Destroy(other.gameObject);
}
else
{
score +=5;
scoreText = "Score: " + score;
Debug.Log("Score is now " +score);
Destroy(other.gameObject);
}
if (score >= 10) { //do something } }
Sorry i'm new to all of this, where would i put this code? in my pick up script or a new script?
I've editted my orginal code - so you do your onTriggerEnter stuff and then at the end check if you have more than 10 score. If you do then the code gets run. To destroy a wall just assign the wall to a public GameObject variable like in the answer by the other guy.
Thank you this worked perfectly! $$anonymous$$y brain is fried from all of this lol.
What if you want to do something every time the coin count reaches increments of 1000?
