Question by ardizzle · Jun 19, 2014 at 05:19 PM · physicsvariable

Why is my var not changing?

I have code to shoot a projectile downwards. As I started on it I ran into an early bug that I can't figure out. I have a speed var to change how fast the object flies thru the air. But no matter what I put it keeps coming out as the number 1. What is going on ?

 #pragma strict
 var projectile        : GameObject;
 var FireSpeedMin    : float;// Min ammount of seconds between fire
 var FireSpeedMax    : float;// Max ammount of seconds between fire
 
 var speed            : int; // Always make this negitive
 //Private
 private var firedObject : GameObject;
 function Start () 
 {
     firedObject = Instantiate(projectile, gameObject.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
     print(speed);
     firedObject.rigidbody2D.AddForce(Vector2(0, speed));
 }
 
 function Update () 
 {
     
 }

It's declared as an integer. So everything will be round down.

Should be float instead. If you put 0.1 into an int, it will go in as 0.

The numbers I have put in have ranged from -100 to 100. I originally had it as a float and thought that maybe somehow it was throwing it into the problem so I tried it as an int.
