To make it really easy, you disable the object that you want to disappear, and after a given time make it appear again through enable its renderer class. Something like this pseudo code:
private float m_waitInSeconds = 100.0f;
private float StartTime = 0.0f;
public GameObject playerObject = null;
Start()
{
// The time at this very moment, plus the 100 seconds we want to wait.
StartTime = Time.time + m_waitInSeconds;
}
update()
{
// Wait until its time
if(StartTime <= Time.time)
{
// Make it visible
if(playerObject.renderer.enabled == false)
{
playerObject.renderer.enabled = true;
}
else // Make it invisible
{
playerObject.renderer.enabled = false;
}
// Make it wait another 100 seconds until we switch it again.
StartTime = Time.time + m_waitInSeconds;
}
}
Good luck!
