Delay in setting Boolean Value

Question

I am making a portal that will need to have a delay to set a boolean to control whether or not they can be used. I am coming over from Unreal to Unity and in Unreal, you have a delay node for these kinds of operations. I have tried to use a Wait For Seconds method and have had troubles with it.

     void  ResetCanTP (float delay)
     {
         CanTP = false;
         yield WaitForSeconds(delay);
         CanTP = true;
     }
 
 }

The error I am seeing is: Expected ; or = ( cannot specify arguments in declaration) No idea how to fix this issue as I am new to Unity and C#

You need to change 'void' to 'IEnumerator'

Then call StartCoroutine(ResetCanTP(2f));

And also change your yield line to

yield return new WaitForSeconds(delay);
