Waitforseconds not working?
Hello,
This may be a common question but my waitforseconds doesn't seem to be working. What I want to do is after you click on a component, it takes 1-2 seconds before a panel shows up. This is what I have so far:
using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;
public class OnColliding : MonoBehaviour {
public GameObject Panel;
public float Wait = 5;
void Start () {
Panel.SetActive(false);
}
void OnMouseDown() {
StartCoroutine (PanelWait ());
Panel.SetActive (true);
Time.timeScale = 0F;
}
IEnumerator PanelWait ()
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds (Wait);
}
}
But it's not working, the panel shows up immediately after clicking. Help please? I'm still a beginner.
void OnMouseDown() {
StartCoroutine (PanelWait ());
}
IEnumerator PanelWait ()
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds (Wait);
Panel.SetActive (true);
}
You are setting Time.timeScale to 0, which means no time is actually passing inside WaitForSeconds.
See this answer for an alternate approach:

To get the panel to show up after the wait, move the call to Panel.SetActive (true); inside the coroutine, after the WaitForSeconds.
Thanks for answering. How can I do that in scripting though? Sorry, I know very little about it...
