Question by Dsiak · May 25, 2016 at 11:39 PM · c#scripting problemgameobjectlist

Using a specific function from a generic object.

I'll try to explain to the best of my capabilities.

I have stored in a List different instances of different objects, all of those objects implements a method with the same name, but those objects have different scripts and each one of them implement the said method in different ways.

Is it possible for me to call my list of game objects and execute the method by name?

Edit:

 //This is the script that stores the list
 public class colorControl : MonoBehaviour {
 static List<GameObject> bulletList = new List<GameObject> ();
 
     void Update () {
         //I wish i could call the method setRed from a index of bulletList
     }
 
         // this is the method others use to put themselfs in the list
     public static void addBulletToList(GameObject bullet){
         bulletList.Add (bullet);
     }
 }
 
 
 
 //One of the objets that enters the list
 public class bulletDownControl : MonoBehaviour {
     public GameObject gameOb;
 
         void Awake () {
             colorControl.addBulletToList (gameOb);
         }
        //this is the method all bullets have in common
        void setRed {
            //changes somethings of this bullet
        }
 
 }
 
 
 //Anther one of the objets that enters the list
 public class bulletSpecialControl : MonoBehaviour {
     public GameObject gameOb;
 
         void Awake () {
             colorControl.addBulletToList (gameOb);
         }
        //this is the method all bullets have in common
        void setRed {
            //changes some other things of this bullet
        }
 
 }
