bullets kill all enemies, not just the ones hit.
Hi all, I have several enemies walking around my level chasing the player but when I shoot one, all of them take damage.
Here is my code attached to my bullet prefab
public class Bullet : MonoBehaviour {
public float lifeSpan = 3;
static private Enemy myEnemy;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
gameObject.GetComponent<CapsuleCollider>().isTrigger = true;
StartCoroutine(kill());
if ((myEnemy = GameObject.FindObjectOfType(typeof(Enemy)) as Enemy) ==null)
{
Debug.Log("No Enemies to Shoot!!");
}
}
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if(myEnemy !=null)
{
if (other.gameObject.tag == "Enemy")
{
Debug.Log("Hit! " + other.name);
myEnemy.takeDamage(10);
Die();
}
else
{
Debug.Log ("Hit! " + other.name);
Die();
}
}
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
}
void Die()
{
Destroy(this.gameObject);
}
protected IEnumerator kill()
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(lifeSpan);
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}
and here is my code attacked to my enemy..
public class Enemy : MonoBehaviour {
static private Player mainPlayer;
public enum EnemyType{Green, Purple, Red};
public float mHealth = 20.0f;
private float mMaxHealth = 20.0f;
[SerializeField]
private EnemyType enemyType = EnemyType.Purple;
void Awake()
{
if(mainPlayer == null)
{
if((mainPlayer = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player").GetComponent<Player>()) == null)
{
if((mainPlayer = GameObject.FindObjectOfType(typeof(Player)) as Player) == null)
{
Debug.LogError("Cannot locate main player");
}
}
}
}
public void takeDamage(float amount)
{
mHealth -= amount;
if(mHealth <=0)
{
dieEnemy();
}
}
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
initEnemy(enemyType);
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
}
public void dieEnemy ()
{
Destroy (gameObject);
}
public void initEnemy(EnemyType newEnemyType)
{
switch(newEnemyType)
{
case EnemyType.Purple:
mHealth = 20.0f;
mMaxHealth = 15.0f;
break;
case EnemyType.Green:
mHealth = 20.0f;
mMaxHealth = 20.0f;
break;
case EnemyType.Red:
mHealth = 20.0f;
mMaxHealth = 10.0f;
break;
}
}
}
Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
TIA.

Try changing this:
if (other.gameObject.tag == "Enemy")
{
Debug.Log("Hit! " + other.name);
to this:
if (other.gameObject.tag == "Enemy")
{
myEnemy = other.gameObject.GetComponent<Enemy>();
Debug.Log("Hit! " + other.name);
As far as I can tell, you're not telling the specific enemy to die when colliding.
On a side note, you can change lines like this:
if ((myEnemy = GameObject.FindObjectOfType(typeof(Enemy)) as Enemy) ==null)
to something like this:
if (GameObject.FindObjectOfType<Enemy>() == null)
Hope this helps!
