Simple Way to Remove a Single Object on Click/Touch
This is, I'm certain, an incredibly dumb question. I've been trying to learn Unity, and have followed some tutorials to make some simple games like a Breakout Clone, etc.
I'm now trying to make a simple hidden object game, and I'm trying to write what should be the easiest script in the world – on tap/click I want the item that is tapped/clicked to be destroyed.
The problem is, the way I thought I would go about doing that isn't working:
void Update () {
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown (0)) {
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}
When I attach this script to all of the items to be tappable/clickable, what happens is if I click any one of them, all of them vanish at once.
I would be very grateful if someone could help me with the simplest way to make it so only the object I click on disappears. I tried using 'this', but that seems to destroy the script (which makes sense), not the object itself.
Thank you so much!
I should note that this is 2D and in C#.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
void OnMouseDown() {
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}
This doesn't seem to be working, and I'm sure there's something I'm messing up.
I've created the script as a C# script, and added it to each of the objects I want to be clickable/touchable as a Component. But nothing seems to be happening.
I'm not sure what might be missing. I tried adding a $$anonymous$$inematic Rigidbody 2D to the items, thinking maybe that was the problem, but that doesn't seem to have fixed it. Is there something obvious I could be missing?
Thank you so much for your patience.
Never$$anonymous$$d, it was something I was messing up.
I didn't realize it needed to have a Collider on it.
Thank you so much for your help!
if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
Vector2 mousePos = new Vector2(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition).x,Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition).y);
RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(mousePos,Vector2.zero, 100f);
if(hit.collider != null)
{
Destroy(hit.collider);
}
}
Add this to your main camera, and make sure that the objects you are destroying have colliders on them.
What if you were to do the same with touch controls??
