Decrement for a set amount of time...
in my game, the player gets a "poisoned" effect on them. When they do, I want to decrease their HP value by 2 a second, for 12 seconds. However, since I use the Update() method, it ends up at -3950 or something of the sorts...
Here is my code:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class Vitals : MonoBehaviour {
public int health = 100;
public int mana = 100;
public bool poisoned = false;
public bool dead = false;
public bool slow = false;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
if(poisoned) {
health--;
}
if(health == 0 || health < 0) {
dead = true;
}
Debug.Log ("Player Health: " + health);
}
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {
if (other.gameObject.CompareTag ("Damage")) {
health -= 5;
}
if(other.gameObject.CompareTag("Poison")) {
poisoned = true;
}
}
}
Thanks in advance! :D
Best Answer
if(other.gameObject.CompareTag("Poison") & !poisened) {
StartCoroutine(Poisoning())
}
...
...
IEnumerator Poisoning() {
poisened = true;
health -= 2;
for(int i = 0; i<11; i++)
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
health -= 2;
}
poisened = false;
}
