How to create an array of Game Objects with different tags.
I've got four different types of objects each with different tags. I want to select them all and assign them to the same array. I have no problem combining them together in value with .length, but need to put them in as game objects so that I can use them again later as objects and not as a value. My goal is to combine all the colored groups into one array called AllDST. Thank you.
var AllDST : GameObject[];
var blueDST : GameObject[];
var redDST : GameObject[];
var greenDST : GameObject[];
var purpleDST : GameObject[];
function addToArray() //Combine all game objects into one array
{
blueDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DBlue");
redDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DRed");
greenDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DGreen");
purpleDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DPurple");
AllDST = GameObject[blueDST + redDST + greenDST + purpleDST]; //This is the magic I need solved. How do I combine all four Gameobject groups into one array?
}
Best Answer
You can do it manually like this:
function AddToArray(){
blueDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DBlue");
redDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DRed");
greenDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DGreen");
purpleDST = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("DPurple");
// calculate the resulting array size:
var size = blueDST.Length + redDST.Length + greenDST.Length + purpleDST.Length;
AllDST = new GameObject[size];
var i = 0;
var obj: GameObject;
for (obj in blueDST) AllDST[i++] = obj; // copy blue array first...
for (obj in redDST) AllDST[i++] = obj; // copy red array after it...
for (obj in greenDST) AllDST[i++] = obj; // then green array...
for (obj in purpleDST) AllDST[i++] = obj; // and finally purple array
}
