It's best to have a controller script that controls which inputs are allowed or not. Commonly the Game-State pattern is used for this.
States:
- Default
- InGame
- InMenu
- Paused
enum GameState {
Default,
InGame,
InMenu,
Paused
}
// Game state variable
public GameState gameState = GameState.Default;
public GameObject UI;
public GameObject Game;
void Update () {
switch (gameState){
case (GameState.Default):
UI.GetComponent<UIController>().Show();
Game.GetComponent<GameController>().Reset();
return;
case (GameState.InGame):
UI.GetComponent<UIController>().Hide();
Game.GetComponent<GameController>().Play();
return;
case (GameState.InMenu):
UI.GetComponent<UIController>().Show();
Game.GetComponent<GameController>().Pause();
return;
case (GameState.Paused):
UI.GetComponent<UIController>().Hide();
Game.GetComponent<GameController>().Pause();
return;
}
}
if (GameState == GameState.InGame){
}
Set a bool variable to true when the menu is open and in the input's if statements add if((Input) && !menuBool){ to check the menu isn't open. When the menu is closed start a coroutine and have the bool wait a frame or millisecond before setting it to false.
