I have the same animation bool for multiple gameObjects with animations. They both play at the same time.

Question

Here is my code for opening a door:

public class DoorOpenClose : MonoBehaviour {

 public Animator doorControl;
 public Camera camera;
 
 private bool _isOpen = false;

 void Update()
 {
     if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
     {
         Ray ray = camera.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
         RaycastHit raycastHit;

         if (Physics.Raycast(ray.origin, ray.direction, out raycastHit, Mathf.Infinity))
         {
             _isOpen = !_isOpen;
             doorControl.SetBool("isOpening", _isOpen);
         }
         
     }
 }

}

This script is attached to a button which then opens and closes a door successfully, the only problem is that another button with the same script, which is attached to a separate door opens when I click on a button.

tldr: Button 1 plays an animation, but Button 2 plays the same animation. Both buttons have the same scripts.

I can not find an answer (due to me being a beginner at code).

the problem is the "Update" function is being called on each script u have , so when u click the mouse both the scripts works and open their doors ,

for a quick and simple solution cause u are a beginner u can do like this :

delete the update code and use OnMouseDown() function ,

so write this instead :

 void OnMouseDown()
 {
 isOpen = !_isOpen;
              doorControl.SetBool("isOpening", _isOpen);
 }

on mouse down is called once u click on a collider and only that collider :) Good Luck ;
