How to script independent time tracking of prefabs?

Question

Hey friends,

i want to instantiate a prefab with a script attached to it. The script has a time dependent variable. Problem is: - The value starts changing right after starting the game, NOT with instantiation of the prefab. - Every prefab shares the same value, instead of being independend.

So i want to track the time of each prefab individually, with the instantiation as the beginning, NOT the game start.

Hope you can help me, thanks!

@Hardfaile Easy fix for you will be something like this:

 private float prefabStartingTime;
 private float prefabCurrent;
             private void Awake()
             {
                 prefabStartingTime = Time.time;
             }
     
             private void Update()
             {
                 prefabCurrent = Time.time - prefabStartingTime;
             }

Of course, it will be better to implement prefabCurrent as a property, but it's for you to decide) Hope you understood the idea)
