Question by KaiserDE · Aug 11, 2016 at 04:53 PM · enemy healthreceiver

Problem Calling Function from Other Script

So basically I have two scripts, the enemy health script that I attach to the enemy that goes as follows.

 #pragma strict
  var Health = 100;
  var animDie : AnimationClip; // Drag your animation from the project view in here (to inspector)
  
  function ApplyDammage (TheDammage : int)
  {
      Health -= TheDammage;
      if(Health <= 0)
      {
         Dead();
      }
  }
  
  function Dead()
  {
      GetComponent.<Animation>().Play(animDie.name);
      Destroy(this.gameObject, animDie.length);
  }
 

I also have the script that I attach to my Bullet, that goes as follows... #pragma strict

 function OnCollisionEnter (col : Collision)
 {
     if(col.gameObject.name == "char4_snipersnest_char4")
     {
         gameObject.SendMessage("ApplyDammage",100);
     }
 }

However, when they collide the console says the following: "SendMessage ApplyDammage has no receiver!" I've seen some other threads on the SendMessage has no Receiver problem but I can't quite follow them in my case. Any help here would be massively appreciated. Thanks.

I do not know if it works in JS but this is my C# Script for the Bullet/Laser:

I hope it will help somehow.

 public class LaserDamage : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public float damage = 1;
 
     void OnTriggerEnter2D (Collider2D other)
     {
         if (!other.CompareTag ("Player")) 
         {
             other.SendMessage("ApplyDamage",damage,SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
             Destroy(gameObject);
         }
     }
 }

Actually as I look at your Bullet script @KaiserDE, you are asking the Bullet script for the method ApplyDamage when it's actually you're enemy that has that method.

 function OnCollisionEnter (col : Collision)
  {
      if(col.gameObject.name == "char4_snipersnest_char4")
      {
          //asks the bullet script for the method ApplyDammage (no method exists)
          gameObject.SendMessage("ApplyDammage",100); 
          //the below should work since the method you want is on the enemy object
          col.gameObject.SendMessage("ApplyDammage",100);
      }
  }
