Can you post your whole script?

guiviana334 Zaeran · May 12, 2019 at 03:21 PM 0

The whole script deals with all interactions with the ball, it would be many unused information, but sure, i can post the parts where Reflex is used

 public void ReflexButton()
 {
     Reflex = true;
     Debug.Log("Reflex="+Reflex);
 }

 private void OnTriggerStay(Collider other)
 {
     if (other.gameObject.tag == "Ball")
     {
         if (Reflex == true && invulnerable == false)
         {
             Grab(other.gameObject);
             Reflex = false;
         }
     }
 }

 void Grab(GameObject ob)
 {
         ballison = true;
      
         ball = ob;

         ballfx.flamable = true;

         ballRB = ball.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();

         ball.transform.rotation = transform.rotation;

         ob.transform.position = hand.transform.position;

         ballRB.is$$anonymous$$inematic = true;

         ob.transform.SetParent(hand.transform);
     
 }

What makes you tell the variable does not change? You surely change the Reflex variable somewhere else.

If you want to know if the variable's value has changed, put it in the logging.

 Reflex = true;
 Debug.Log("Reflex="+Reflex);

This should convince you that it does set the value. Either, like Helium says, something else is then changing it back, or you're just mistaken about its value (eg because you're looking at the wrong variable).

Your suggestion shows True as a value, but the function that is activated by it does not work now:

 private void OnTriggerStay(Collider other)
 {
     if (other.gameObject.tag == "Ball")
     {
         if (Reflex == true //the problem// && invulnerable //defined before// == false)
         {
             Grab(other.gameObject);
             Reflex = false; //the error was ongoing even before this line
         }
     }
 }

When in this example have you assigned false to your variable?

guiviana334 JoshuaOreskovich · May 12, 2019 at 02:52 AM 0

it is always false in the inspector by some reason

Have you tried the logging I suggested? Simply assigning a value to a variable doesn't fail. As you have been told, you're either setting it back to false, or not looking at the right variable (perhaps you have multiple instances of the component - something you could diagnose by also adding logging to show which gameobject it's being set on).
