Cancelling Coroutine when Home button presseddown or returned main menu
some pretext of what I am doing ; I am currently locking down my skill buttons via setting interactable = false in coroutines. Showing text of remaning seconds via textmeshpro and setting them deactive when countdown is over. But I am having problem when home button is pressed/ returned main menu. I would like to refresh my buttons cooldowns and stop coroutines when its pressed. But it is staying in lock position.
this is my cooldown coroutine
static List<CancellationToken> cancelTokens = new List<CancellationToken>();
...
public IEnumerator StartCountdown(float countdownValue, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
try
{
this.currentCooldownDuration = countdownValue;
// Deactivate myButton
this.myButton.interactable = false;
//activate text to show remaining cooldown seconds
this.m_Text.SetActive(true);
while (this.currentCooldownDuration > 0 && !cancellationToken.IsCancellationRequested)
{
this.m_Text.GetComponent<TMPro.TextMeshProUGUI>().text = this.currentCooldownDuration.ToString(); //Showing the Score on the Canvas
yield return new WaitForSeconds(1.0f);
this.currentCooldownDuration--;
}
}
finally
{
// deactivate text and Reactivate myButton
// deactivate text
this.m_Text.SetActive(false);
// Reactivate myButton
this.myButton.interactable = true;
}
}
static public void cancelAllCoroutines()
{
Debug.Log("cancelling all coroutines with total of : " + cancelTokens.Count);
foreach (CancellationToken ca in cancelTokens)
{
ca.IsCancellationRequested = true;
}
}
void OnButtonClick()
{
CancellationToken cancelToken = new CancellationToken();
cancelTokens.Add(cancelToken);
Coroutine co;
co = StartCoroutine(StartCountdown(cooldownDuration, cancelToken));
myCoroutines.Add(co);
}
this is where I catch when home button pressed/returned main menu. when catch it and pop pauseMenu
public void PauseGame()
{
GameObject menu = Instantiate(PauseMenu);
menu.transform.SetParent(Canvas.transform, false);
gameManager.PauseGame();
EventManager.StartListening("ReturnMainMenu", (e) =>
{
Cooldown.cancelAllCoroutines();
Destroy(menu);
BackToMainMenu();
EventManager.StopListening("ReturnMainMenu");
});
...
I also stop time when game on the pause
public void PauseGame() {
Time.timeScale = 0.0001f;
}
This is probably not what you're looking for but you can stop coroutines with StopCoroutine(coroutine);
