Rule #9. Don't spoonfeed or ask to be spoonfed

Before asking for help, please google your issue first, attempt to solve it yourself, and then ask. You learn more this way than being spoon-fed!

Why do you guys think i don't search on google

ancient hearth Sep 17, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

because this question is easily googleable

wispy merlin Sep 17, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

i come here after searching and not finding or understanding what i need

#

ancient hearth because this question is easily googleable

i know but what i found is not working for me

ancient hearth Sep 17, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

then why didn't you say that?

#

all you did was literally ask how to do something, which is easily googleable

Yes for this you can blame me.

#

hey can you help me

#

i saw this code for changing layers through code everywhere

#

i don't know if i'm doing it right or wrong

#

gameObject.layer = 12;
gameObject.layer = LayerMask.NameToLayer("FpsLayer");

#

is this a right way?

#

Syntactically fine, logically weird

#

Why are you setting layer to 12, just to change it again right after?

ancient hearth Syntactically fine, logically weird

how

#

i don't know i just saw it thought i should try it

ancient hearth Sep 17, 2022, 4:46 PM

#

but setting it to 12 is doing nothing here

wispy merlin Sep 17, 2022, 4:47 PM

#

if i remove it then?

Try it!

Whenever you ask "can I do X" or "will Y work", the only thing you are doing is wasting time (including your own!)
The people you're asking aren't computers, humans can be wrong in their answers. We also don't have access to your project or know your intentions.
The only way to know if something works as you wanted it to, is to try it for yourself!

i tried, didn't work

#

all i want is when the player equips a weapon the layer on that weapon should change

ancient hearth Sep 17, 2022, 4:49 PM

#

then perhaps your layer name is wrong

wispy merlin Sep 17, 2022, 4:52 PM

#

ancient hearth then perhaps your layer name is wrong

Nope not working

#

name is fine too

#

i have a ground layer on the ground objects and the main camera is rendering it and for the weapons i have a weapon layer and the other child camera is rendering it

#

and because the other child camera is not rendering anything else expect for the guns you can see the guns through everthing
