Gameobject is not being destroyed
Hey guys, I am trying to (after some seconds) destory a gameobject in my game. I have put debug code segments in my code and it says that my object is destoryed, but it is still in game. Here is my code:
var timenight : int; //5
var deathchurch: Transform;
function Start () {
Debug.Log("Time Start for DeathChurch");
yield new WaitForSeconds(timenight);
Debug.Log("Time Ends");
Destroy (deathchurch);//Destroys object blocking path
Debug.Log("DeathChurch Gone");
}
How do I get this gameObject to be destroyed after a few seconds! Any help would be great, thanks!

You can have the timer built into the Destroy function. And you destroy the gameObject not the transform. I think transform.gameObject Destroy(transform.gameObject,5) could also be used for destruction
http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Object.Destroy.html
// Kills the game object in 5 seconds after loading the object
Destroy (gameObject, 5);
In your example:
var timenight : float = 5.0; //Value needs to be set, and be a float not int
var deathchurch: Transform;
function Start () {
deathchurch = transform; //The var needs to be set, not just declared. Should not be needed in this example though
Debug.Log("Time Start for DeathChurch");
Destroy (gameObject, timenight);//Destroys object blocking path
//Destroy (deathchurch.gameObject, timenight); //could also work I believe
Debug.Log("DeathChurch Gone");
}
