and you have completed the prerequisite steps?

[limber stone]

yh

[slender nymph]

show the visual studio editor package in your package manager

[slender nymph]

remove the highlighted one

[craggy oxide]

i understand what LateUpdate does but what's its actual timing
Like, Update() is every frame, FixedUpdate() is every physics step
When does LateUpdate run

[slender nymph]

shouldn't you still be learning the basics of C# though?

[limber stone]

k and now

[tawdry quest]

could you elaborate ? what vaules youre talking about

[craggy oxide]

ive covered most basic stuff, still got coroutines to do but other than that should be good

[slender nymph]

these are unity concepts when you have been struggling with basic c# syntax. learn c#

[craggy oxide]

bro i AM

[limber stone]

still dont show the choice they say i need to take

[tawdry quest]

no youre messing around in unity, that is not learning c#

[craggy oxide]

im taking unity learn courses as well as reading the documentation and reading basic C# websites

[slender nymph]

then select the browse option and select it manually. or use visual studio which is easier to configure and less likely to break

[tawdry quest]

you can learn unity after c# and after that you can mess around

[craggy oxide]

can you please stop being so condescending to me when I HAVE been taking courses for DAYS

i know days isnt a lot but im trying

[hexed terrace]

Send a screenshot of what you ARE seeing

[craggy oxide]

everyone keeps treating me like im going in fully blind im not

[slender nymph]

the lie detector test has determined that was a lie

[tawdry quest]

cuz you are

[craggy oxide]

if i don't know one or two specific things, that doesn't mean i'm not trying at all

[earnest atlas]

you infact are going in blind xD

[tawdry quest]

you cant tell us otherwise, youre prooving it with your questions

[craggy oxide]

its called having gaps in my knowledge

[tawdry quest]

Then you know

fill these GAPS

[earnest atlas]

I would rather call that a marine trench

[tawdry quest]

with learning

exactly what were telling you

[craggy oxide]

that is WHAT IM TRYING TO DO

what do you think I do when I'm not in here

[slender nymph]

and actually going through a structured course that teaches c# is how you close those gaps in your knowledge. we're not telling you to go learn the basics for shits and giggles, mate. if you have gaps in your knowledge about literally the absolute basic stuff then you need to take some time to go learn that

[craggy oxide]

leave me alone

[hexed terrace]

best to stop arguing and go off and get on with what you need/want to do

[tawdry quest]

no youre not, you are just playing around in unity and getting confused come here and ask a question that can be answered by watching basic tutorials

[craggy oxide]

yeah i'm out

[slender nymph]

this isn't an airport mate, you don't need to announce your departure

just go do the learning instead of complaining to everyone that you're trying to do it

[earnest atlas]

box coming in with a finisher xD

[tawdry quest]

deserved

[limber stone]

do i restart my pc wen done or its ok

[earnest atlas]

wdym?

if u changed setting in IDE you can restart it, tho Im not sure you need that.

Restarting pc only needed when app on instal tells you to do that

[slender nymph]

if you've completed the configuration steps in the guide and you've already restarted after installing the c# extension (which installs the .net sdk) then you just need to regenerate project files and restart vs code

[hexed terrace]

if (nothingHasChanged) { restartPC(); }

[earnest atlas]

if (somethingChanged) {delete/system32}

[slender nymph]

don't multiply your velocity by deltaTime

[rare basin]

also, it should be called in FixedUpdate

[limber stone]

ok so the eror say Assets\script\PlayerMovement.cs(12,39): error CS0117: 'Input' does not contain a definition for 'getAxis'

[slender nymph]

yes and you should now see it underlined in red

[rare basin]

ow its you, did you finally configure your IDE? @limber stone

[limber stone]

yh it work ty

ima fix this rn

[slender nymph]

great! now spell the method name right

[limber stone]

ty i was miss typing that one word and other but this one wouldnt be higligther in red

[slender nymph]

yes, you don't need that. a rigidbody's velocity is already expressed in units per second and the deltaTime multiplication is used to convert something from units per frame to units per second

[rare basin]

for sure not because of that

[slender nymph]

yeah that isn't going to affect the actual framerate

[rare basin]

Vector3 direction = playerRb.velocity; also why did you call that variable direction

it's not a direction

[wicked bolt]

Unity just ate my full 32gb ram tryna make a 5400x9600 2d grid

[earnest atlas]

lol

[rare basin]

then fix your code

and why do you make such a big grid

[wicked bolt]

I have no errors to work on

[rare basin]

i mean optimize

[deep goblet]

big grids are funny

[wicked bolt]

Small brained

[rare basin]

ok lol

[wicked bolt]

Followed some guide on unity forums exactly

[tawdry quest]

whats in that gird ?

[wicked bolt]

Square sprites

[tawdry quest]

if its just an empty grid that would maybe eat 2mb+

[slender nymph]

that's 51 million elements

[rare basin]

what

[deep goblet]

honestly, not enough elements

go big or go home

[tawdry quest]

if its just the grid, without content

it doesnt eat that much ram

but yeah with sprites, rip ram

[rare basin]

so 51 milion empty objects on the scene, would eat only 2kb ram according to you?

[tawdry quest]

meant 2mb whoop

[slender nymph]

is your computer freezing, or is it just unity? if the latter then you probably have an infinite loop somewhere

[timber tide]

damn are you in the matrix

[slender nymph]

yeah this seems like a hardware issue not a unity issue

[hexed terrace]

that computer is fucked

[tawdry quest]

yeah your gpu is dead mate

[rare basin]

seems like your GPU is fucked mate 😄

[tawdry quest]

thats a fried gpu

[north kiln]

Update GPU drivers

[rare basin]

put it in the oven for a 1 minute in 200 celcius degree

[wicked bolt]

OOOOH RIGHT
I forgot to put a / between

Yoo, rain?

Pixel rain

[earnest atlas]

of pain

[tawdry quest]

i dont think an update can fix damaged hardware, that looks like typical dead gpu artifacts

[earnest atlas]

if your goal was pain then yes

[tawdry quest]

mate incase you missed it due to the restart, your gpu is likely fucked

its not unity

[wicked bolt]

I cant help but wonder if its now running integrated graphics

[rare basin]

how do you judge its pretty good?

[tawdry quest]

your gpu might be new / good performing, but its in broken condition by the looks of it

that kind of artifacts i had them myself before before my gpu fully killed itself

if i remember it was something due to the VRMs shitting themselfs, from me overclocking it too much for too long

but guess what, what did i do to my new gpu instantly, overclock it xD

[slender nymph]

that is 100% irrelevant to the issue you showed

[tawdry quest]

yeah that has nothing to do with your freezes or issue

completly irrelevant

[rare basin]

that piece of code wasn't even used

[slender nymph]

you weren't even using that variable so it was a useless line anyway

[rare basin]

^ this is your code

you made Vector3 direction = playerRb.velocity; and never used it

so it's not relevant to your fps issue

you made a variable

and you are never using it

im just showing you that after deleting it, NOTHING will change

how can we know?

[limber stone]

hello back unity say i have an error in the code "expected" but i dont see werre it is and wen double clicking on the unity error it canot find the error

[ivory bobcat]

Maybe show the entire error..

[slender nymph]

it's telling you that something is expected. read the full error. read the full line it tells you the error is on. pay attention to the red underlines in your code

[limber stone]

therre isnt any red under line

[slender nymph]

screenshot your entire code editor again

prove that it is actually configured now. because if you have an error then it will be highlighted in your code editor

[slender nymph]

not configured

[limber stone]

what but i followd the internet thing you sent and did all

[slender nymph]

well you clearly missed something 🤷‍♂️

[hexed terrace]

once it's configured, you'll get red squiggly lines in quite a few places for that code, in VSC

[deep goblet]

mb didnt see that one

[slender nymph]

install Visual Studio and configure that. it's much easier and less likely to break

[limber stone]

i have it but my licence is over and i whatch tons of vidéeos for fixing it but it wont work

[slender nymph]

install the community version

[limber stone]

thaths why i was stoping programing

[hexed terrace]

VS is free

[limber stone]

? how

[slender nymph]

with the visual studio installer

[limber stone]

ik its weird

[hexed terrace]

learn how to google things, my friend

[limber stone]

i did for week

[hexed terrace]

google -> vs community download

You didn't learn how to google well then

[slender nymph]

delays how. can you show a video of what is happening?

[hexed terrace]

still moving in Update()

[slender nymph]

it's just assigning to velocity though so that wouldn't be a problem

also you completely ignored the earlier advice of removing the deltaTime multiplication

you also still have several useless lines in there that do basically nothing

[rare basin]

what is Vector3 direction

you know that this is not a direction?

and you are never using it anyway

[slender nymph]

remember how everyone told you that had absolutely nothing at all to do with the game freezing

[tawdry quest]

your code still has nothing to do with your broken video card

either your video card is broken, or if youre lucky the drivers are faulty

i would first use DDU to remove all GPU Drivers and then install the newest available for your card

if then its still slowing down or doing the freezes you know that your gpu is broken and you will need to buy a new gpu

[limber stone]

ok so wen i got the visual studio comunity the guid say just to update to get ide is it done ?

[tawdry quest]

it isnt tho, that was clearly your gpu

[slender nymph]

doubt

if you aren't going to bother actually listening to anything anyone here tells you, why are you even here?

[tawdry quest]

yeah im reaching the end of my patience, if they arent listening hes the next i report and to receive a warning

Listen to what we have to say, otherwise why are you even joining here ?

[whole field]

I have a really specific problem which will be a bit more dificult to describe here so if anyone is willing to help me please dm 🙂

[tawdry quest]

if you want to figure it out, @gaunt harbor do the steps i provided

if you need help with DDU im willing to help

[dapper egret]

What is the benfit of using an array versus a list?

[tawdry quest]

A array neeeds to be filled / instanciated before using and cant be changed

[slender nymph]

you are incredibly unlikely to get someone willing to help you privately via DM. if you need help with something then just ask your question in this server in the appropriate channel and https://dontasktoask.com

[rare basin]

no one will dm you, ask here

[slender nymph]

list can be resized, arrays are fixed size

[rare basin]

i mean this is such a google question you can look up in 10 seconds 😄

        else if (score == 10)
        {
            AudioManager.instance.PlaySFX(31);
        }``` is there a cleaner way to do this. feels very repetitive

[tawdry quest]

also if you have to ask this, go watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfkTfcpWqAY

[rare basin]

what's that, its terrible

[honest haven]

yh i know

[slender nymph]

if(score % 10 == 0)

[dapper egret]

So there is no way to add a something new to an array.Got it thx 🙂

[tawdry quest]

afaik he goes over lists and arrays

[rare basin]

Dictionary<int, int>

<score,sfxIndex>

[tawdry quest]

Bruh moment

[gaunt ice]

no you dont need dictionary
play the same index

[rare basin]

okay didint see it doesnt change

[tawdry quest]

this one is the best solution

[honest haven]

if score is dividable by 10 that will get 10,20 etc...?

[slender nymph]

yes

[honest haven]

awesome thanks

[slender nymph]

note that also includes 0 though

[gaunt ice]

0 && <=70 && score%10 if you have to restrict the range

[honest haven]

well i set that max to 70 but really i just want to get the 10th so score could go to 1000

[tawdry quest]

just do if(score % 10 == 0 && score != 0)

[honest haven]

so ithink the boxfriend way will be best

yh

[slender nymph]

also if score is a float, it is almost impossible for any of these conditions to be true

[honest haven]

thanks, score is int

[tawdry quest]

if its a score it shouldnt be a float anyways nvm im wrong

[slender nymph]

that's not necessarily true and entirely depends on the design

[hexed terrace]

That's just not true

[tawdry quest]

never seen a decimal score

alr im wrong apparently

[slender nymph]

i made a doodle jump clone where the score was just the height along the Y axis which was a float 🤷‍♂️

[limber stone]

oooh ok now my error scan work ty box frend

[tawdry quest]

ok for the payment for all the back and forth with box: 25 box credits /s They gonna misunderstand this anyways

[honest haven]

thanks guys

[whole field]

Okay so im working on fishing game. RIght now I have a world generating mechanic which randomly spawns prefabs of gameobjects on map (like in this vid https://youtu.be/D4EOgZyNk-k?si=6BCPYr1uIWR3ucvC) I have attached a fishingevent script to each newly spawned lake which I have done by attaching the script to the prefabs of the lake gameobjects. But the problem is that the script has its references (pic) and I just cant find a way how to fill those references by a script whenever the object spawns so yeah pls help :DDDD

[limber stone]

ok an other proble not the typing ig but it jump but not evry time i press space

like 3 time at 10

[hexed terrace]

What.

[limber stone]

my jump button work but it dont jump evry tim i press

[hexed terrace]

When spawning, you need to get a reference to this component.
Then it's just fe.canvas = etc

You may want to declare the prefab reference as
FishingEvent fePrefab
Then doing Instantiate(fePrefab) will return the component reference for you straight away

[rare basin]

that's sad!

[tawdry quest]

pfff

[honest haven]

i have another horrid one. if (CansGameManager.instance.above70) { speed = 9; } else if (CansGameManager.instance.above60) { speed = 8; } else if (CansGameManager.instance.above50) { speed = 7; } else if (CansGameManager.instance.above40) { speed = 6; } else if (CansGameManager.instance.above30) { speed = 5; } else if (CansGameManager.instance.above20) { speed = 4; } else if (CansGameManager.instance.above10) { speed = 3; } else { speed = 3; } what could i do to clean this one up. really every 10 it just increases the speed. Could i just get the score again and check if % 10 speed +=1; would that work best

[tawdry quest]

show the code

[rare basin]

Dictionary

[tawdry quest]

have you heard about Dictionarys or Switches

[rare basin]

switches will result in the same ugly wall

[tawdry quest]

yes but its way better for performance

[rare basin]

it's not "way better"

where did you hear that

[honest haven]

switches yes dictonarys no. again i dont want this to cap at 70 would like this to be forever 80,80,90 etc...

[earnest atlas]

I dont think its working as I think it should?

[rare basin]

learn about dictionaries

[gaunt ice]

dictionary or switch cannot solve it
this is not one to one mapping but many to one mapping

[rare basin]

or serialized dictionaries

[tawdry quest]

it is worlds better, if you do this if else the entire time instead of switches

its minimal at once, but very bad at scale

[gaunt ice]

you need sorted set (idk if it support lower bound search)

[rare basin]

why dictionary wouldn't slove it?

[gaunt ice]

read the comment above and above this comment

[rare basin]

i did

[tawdry quest]

it would, the switch is just easier

[hexed terrace]

it "solves" it, but it doesn't scale.. you still have to add every instance

[stuck palm]

Can you crash an audio source? If I run my mouse really fast along buttons which are configured to playoneshot a sound on hover eventually they stop making sounds

[rare basin]

yes but then it's much clearner in code

assuming you add the entries via inspector

[honest haven]

Im lost so diconary is a no?

[hexed terrace]

What type is "abovexx" ?

[tawdry quest]

you can somewhat "corrupt" the audioplayer in unity by overloading it too much

[whole field]

there is no reference to prefabs, the prefabs are saved to the generating script in "GameObject[] objectPrefabs" array

[gaunt ice]

you can use an decreasing array and iterate it and break until you find the element right smaller than it

[honest haven]

public bool above10, above20, above30, above40, above50, above60, above70;

[earnest atlas]

var instance = CansGameManager.instance;

switch (instance)
{
    case var _ when instance.above70:
        // Code to execute when above70 is true
        speed = 9;
        break;

    case var _ when instance.above60:
        //etc
        speed = 8;
        break;
}```
?

[gaunt ice]

run faster then sorted set since you only have few elements (<10)

[hexed terrace]

sooo... objectPrefabs is an array of...?

[stuck palm]

how can i avoid t hat?

[tawdry quest]

thats what i would do

[earnest atlas]

thats the most readable

[tawdry quest]

dont overload it

[earnest atlas]

and easy to add new cases

[honest haven]

i want to change the whole thing. i dont think i want the bool any more i just want to get score now. and if its above 10 speed is 1 above 20 speed is 2 etc...

[whole field]

objectPrefabs is an array where all the prefabs are stored

[hexed terrace]

So you have references to prefabs 😄

[stuck palm]

how much at a time would be considered overloading though

[slender nymph]

Just divide it by 10

[whole field]

those prefabs have script attached to them and the script has its own references that need to be filled for the code to work, and I need to find a way how to fill those references using script

[gaunt ice]

hashtable basic:
it is used to provide one to one mapping so if you have something likes

type val;
int x=X;
if(x<100){
  val=thing;
}else{
  val=another thing
}
```which implies the for x in **range** [INT_MIN,100) val=thing, which is not one to one mapping

[tawdry quest]

oof you would need like very many like audiosources to archive that, maybe like 1k + ?

[honest haven]

yh thats what i sais earlier could i divid by 10 then do speed ++

[tawdry quest]

also depends on your pcs audio driver a bit

[honest haven]

that might be php sorry

[hexed terrace]

GetComponent<T>() , GetComponentInChildren<T>() , GetComponentInParent<T>()

[slender nymph]

No literally just divide by 10. Integers cannot have decimal places so something like 36 / 10 == 3

[tawdry quest]

only like happens if you automatically spawn audiosources and have a bug in the code that spawns way too many

[stuck palm]

so wtf 😭 i only have like 10 sounds at a time playing through one source

[buoyant knot]

my prefabs always contain either a specific monobehaviour OR class derived from a specific class derived from monobehaviour, where the class that instantiates it can GetComponent, then call Initialize(arguments) to give any info it needs to start and connect to the scene.

[tawdry quest]

maybe it doesnt crash the thing but you reached your max voices the audiolistener listens too

but it shouldnt like stop playing completly, that behaviour is not normal

what unity version are you on ? Some new beta version or is it a "stable" release

[whole field]

so if I understand right yyou have a script that fills the references in other script and both of these scripts in one prefab?

[buoyant knot]

SpawnedEntityHandler : Monobehaviour has Initialize(…) which is like a standard initialize

the script that instantiates the new gameobject has basic information needed to pass in to call Initialize

SpawnedEntityHandler can also get other information from singletons.

[stuck palm]

its 2022.3.17

[buoyant knot]

but SpawnedEntityHandler gets the key unique info it needs to start up in that Initialize( call

[honest haven]

int speedIncrement = 1;

int score = CansGameManager.instance.score;

speed = baseSpeed + (score / 10) * speedIncrement;``` somthing like this

[buoyant knot]

shit like starting position, starting velocity, starting rotation, what kind of object it is supposed to be…

SpawnedEntityHandler has basically 1 job: manage loading and unloading of the thing. It does not have any code specific to the kind of object it is.

Other scrips on the object query SpawnedEntityHandler in Start() to know wtf is going on, to initialize their own variables.

does this all make sense, tt?

[bitter axle]

When i import a 3d model from blender into unity and apply rigidbody it doesnt work? The only way it works for is to put a invisible capsule with a mesh collider. But how can i make the 3d model itself have mesh collider all around it instead of having to use a capsule or something?

[tawdry quest]

oof tbh i have no clue, can you show your code that fires upon hover ?

oh wait are you saying hover ?

is it in update ?

and checking for hover

or are you using lateupdate / fixedupdate

cuz it could be that its playing the oneshots like 300times per second (at 300fps)

[stuck palm]

im using pointerhandlers

[tawdry quest]

that could be enough to brick the audiodriver in unity

[stuck palm]

like onhover on select and stuff

ill record a vid one sec

[tawdry quest]

maybe put a log in the method where youre playing the sound, to validate if its this, or if its doing it correctly (1time)

[tawdry quest]

normally that should be not fps dependant

and only fire once

[tawdry quest]

can you show how youre playing it, on the ui and the code

[tawdry quest]

and can you create a debug log ^^

[tawdry quest]

Listening to events, hmm i have no clue, maybe the logs can help, but i dont think thats it, i think something else might be broken

im out of ideas what could be the problem

[stuck palm]

you hear what the problem is though right?

[tawdry quest]

yeah

[stuck palm]

seems to fix it self when one item has fixed playing

idk

[tawdry quest]

can you go in the audio settings and make a screenshot of that

maybe you set your max voices to some weirdly low amount by accident

[stuck palm]

where do i check audio setitgs

[tawdry quest]

Project settings audio

ah ye

512/32 seems normal

ok now im lost, i have no clue anymore to be honest

maybe an editor bug ?

have you tried restarting your pc since this happend ? If its an editor bug it might fix it, thats the last thing that i can think of

[proper flax]

it wont move the player

[stuck palm]

yeah, might just leave it tbh its the leasst of my concern rn

[tawdry quest]

this code seems correct to me, where do you place this script

[ember imp]

why is the code different colour?

[proper flax]

on player

[stuck palm]

i also have this weird issue where when i switch UI panels, the button that was last active before i make set the gameobject to false keeps its previous state, so it stays yellow or whatever. how can i fix this?

[tawdry quest]

1. ur using a different IDE.
2. themes are a thing

[ember imp]

IDE?

[tawdry quest]

the development enviroment

youre using visual studio code, the person in the video is using visual studio

i would recommend installing visual studio inside unity hub, its the first addon if you click on manage install

Also you would need to set up visual studio code manually for unity if you want to use vsc

!ide

[eternal falcon]

💡 IDE Configuration

If your IDE is not autocompleting code
or underlining errors, please configure it.

[ember imp]

this dont work and idk why

[proper flax]

on player

[tawdry quest]

can you show the editor with the inspector on the player

[deep goblet]

I'm trying to set up a simple grid, and seperate objects that you can drag and snap onto the grid, I have a working grid and a separate dragging script that doesnt snap to anything, is there a way to snap it to the separate grid or would it need to be in the same grid manager script

[tawdry quest]

click on the player on the left and send a new screenshot

[tawdry quest]

ok that seems correct, please send the whole code

The separate grid? There’s two grids?

[tawdry quest]

please scroll down in the inspector

[thorn holly]

Or are you asking if there a way to make the code for the grid snap in the objects?

[tawdry quest]

i want to know if you actually attached the script

[deep goblet]

no sorry, i have a grid manager that just makes a grid with prefab tiles, and then a dragging script that doesnt snap to anything, i want to be able to drag objects and have it snap to the first grid

[thorn holly]

Ah, I see

[deep goblet]

but because i will have different objects to drag i would think i need the snapping feature to be on the objects rather than anything in the grid

[thorn holly]

I see

So what you could do is make a list of every grid tile’s transform in the grid, then loop through that list, find the closest one, and set the objects position to the closest one

[thorn holly]

Alternatively, you could just simple make its position round to the nearest ____

[deep goblet]

hmm, because the grid manager and dragging scripts are separate would I be able to access that list of tile transforms?

[ember imp]

i dont think its the code

but this makes no sense

[thorn holly]

Yes, you could make each tile add itself to the list remotely by accessing the script in the object via a reference, or make the list static so that anything can access it without a reference.

[fossil drum]

Check your spelling...

[tawdry quest]

are you using the new input system ?

[tawdry quest]

can you refrain from reposting everything if i dont instantly answer? i will get to you

[ember imp]

what new input system

[deep goblet]

ah alr, when you said check for the closest one, how would i go about that or could i just check the mouse position and see if it overlaps another tile, and then get that tile's data

[tawdry quest]

unity has an "old" and a new input system, if you look into your package manager and you search input manager is that installed or not

[fossil drum]

His spelling is all wrong, why are you talking about the new or old input system?

[cosmic dagger]

read the error. you spelled it wrong . . .

[tawdry quest]

cuz it looks like its trying to use the new input system but its not fully set up

[thorn holly]

Ah yes, the second option is a better idea, yeah just make a raycast from the mouse position and then get the data of whatever it hits

[ember imp]

i did see i spelled horizonal wrong and i fixed that already

[deep goblet]

i honestly forgot raycasts existed i was just gonna use screentoworldpoint 💀

[slender nymph]

and do you see an axis called Horiznonal in there?

[thorn holly]

lol

[tawdry quest]

they send the code a bit after that, they fixed the spelling mistake

[cosmic dagger]

do you have any other errors?

[tawdry quest]

same for @slender nymph

[ember imp]

no thats all i see

[tawdry quest]

is this old or new

[slender nymph]

and where have you defined the input axis Horiznonal?

[tawdry quest]

in the code you send its correctly Horizontal, so either this is old errors or you send not your code

[cosmic dagger]

clear out the old errors and try running the game again . . .

[slender nymph]

and actually take a look at the stack trace for the errors too if they persist

[cosmic dagger]

if it still appears, then you haven't saved the script . . .

[tawdry quest]

didnt even see the spelling mistake, i thought its some error from the new input system, my bad

[ember imp]

just did

[slender nymph]

click one of them and show the stack trace

[tawdry quest]

did you press control + s in the code editor ?

[ember imp]

clicked save and it worked

[tawdry quest]

no way ?

nearly as much as you need to save your stuff for it to change

[ember imp]

but this scares me, why is it yellow

[cosmic dagger]

you kinda have to save your changes when you update the code . . .

[ember imp]

ngl i thought it does it automaticly

when ever i close the clode

[cosmic dagger]

did you rename the script?

[tawdry quest]

thats a setting you can activate in some IDE's

but its bad

cuz with every save unity will recompile

so youre constantly recompiling while typing

[ember imp]

its the same so idk

[tawdry quest]

show the inspector of the player and the camera

[ember imp]

errors gone now

had to reload the game

it only took me 4 days to make the player be able to move xd

[static bay]

This is why we don't do hardcoded strings.

[cosmic dagger]

no, before it was called Movement . . .

[ember imp]

not my game

[proper flax]

now ?

[cosmic dagger]

you can post all of your stuff. anyone in the chat can help and they'll need all the info. don't wait for anything . . .

[tawdry quest]

that is ibhrz and not woly...

[cosmic dagger]

yeah, Woly told me . . .

[tawdry quest]

the thing is, just dont repost it like instantly, if noone is getting back to you after like 10 minutes (unless your message is still on screen) you can repost it

[tawdry quest]

no the thing is they posted something while i was helping someone else and then instantly reposted that to get my attention.

and then i actually forgot them 💀 thats my bad

[proper flax]

soo whats the problem

[cosmic dagger]

Update is misspelled . . .

[tawdry quest]

Sometimes you need 4 eyes, thanks

[cosmic dagger]

capitalization matters . . .

[proper flax]

ok thanks'

[deep goblet]

alright so it drags and snaps to the grid, but is there a way i can also have it freely move outside of the grid (the grid does not take up the whole screen), if the mouse goes outside of the grid then it just locks to whatever side its on

[verbal dome]

Idk if you solved this already but calling GetButtonDown is not reliable in FixedUpdate. Do it in Update instead

GetButtonDown is true for one frame, and it's not guaranteed that FixedUpdate runs every frame

[limber stone]

i dont anderstand what to change

[tawdry quest]

you got told exactly what to change by osmal

[buoyant knot]

GetKeyDown etc is true for exactly one frame

FixedUpdate does not happen every frame.

If you use GetKeyDown in FixedUpdate, it will usually not work.

[verbal dome]

I mean move the if-statement that sets isJumping to true, into Update.

Update runs every frame

[limber stone]

i dont anderstand very well the coding language so instead of get button down i type what

ik what you mean but dk what to do to change that

[tawdry quest]

read

take GetKeyDown out of Update, put in FixedUpdate

[verbal dome]

Have you used Update before?

[limber stone]

nah

[verbal dome]

It's a method just like FixedUpdate that you currently have

[limber stone]

ok

[verbal dome]

It's one of the 'Unity methods' that gets called automatically if it exists in your script

This is very basic stuff so I suggest taking some starter courses !learn

GMT is very good imo

[buoyant knot]

yeah, it’s a good start

[limber stone]

ty it work but now my walking speed is slow like it wwalk litle bit and stop and re strat ik were this come form but idk how to fix it

[tawdry quest]

please use screenshots and not that

[tawdry quest]

looks like your java version is outdated ?

but a screenshot of the tracelog would make it easier to help you

[turbid robin]

I can't send screenshot sorry

I don't have discord there

And I can't download it, it's a school PC only

[turbid robin]

What can I do?

[tawdry quest]

update java

[turbid robin]

At what version? 8?

[tawdry quest]

what ? No. Use 17

youre making something, you need the java sdk, not the consumer thing

2 different things

[turbid robin]

Wait wait, android studio SDK?

[tawdry quest]

no

Java SDK

[limber stone]

like this ?

[tawdry quest]

not really, but better then nothing

[turbid robin]

But it's says android SDK

[tawdry quest]

look at the bottom right

problem is that its compiled for the wrong version and cant be loaded

[turbid robin]

More recent, what do I need to do?

[tulip turtle]

does anyone have template for a runner game like subaws surfer ?

[tawdry quest]

no

but you can buy one one websites, im pretty sure

[tulip turtle]

where ?

[tawdry quest]

this one is more recent

[turbid robin]

But unity says that the version need to be at java 8

[tawdry quest]

this is a game development discord and not a lazy ripoff discord, you wont find help here regarding that

you can tho, use google to find a place to buy that

or you could do it like other people here and learn coding, learn unity and make it yourself

[tulip turtle]

but i want to see how runner game is doing and in youtube tutorials are very bad

[turbid robin]

What version do I need to have?

[tawdry quest]

i have seen good tutorials for it

you need to look better or you call them bad cuz you dont understand what they are doing

[tawdry quest]

just install java 17 sdk and then restart unity

and then look if the error still exists

we go from there

[tulip turtle]

but i don't want to copy paste every tutorials beause if one day my friends or any person say how i do it i can't say i copy paste it in youtube

[tawdry quest]

Then learn how to code / create games and make it yourself

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfkTfcpWqAY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtQMytORBmM

[tulip turtle]

Thanks, you are very useful

[tawdry quest]

you mean helpful, but thanks

[limber stone]

so can somone tell me how to fix the non walking problem pls

[tawdry quest]

also you seem to have problems writing english, you could try out https://deepl.com to translate your language to english

That can avoid confusion or mistakes

[tawdry quest]

are you making a 2D or 3D game

cuz youre mixing Vector3D and 2D

[limber stone]

2D

[tawdry quest]

then dont use Vector3D

use Vector2D

[limber stone]

its a tutorial i folowd

[tawdry quest]

the tutorial very surely didnt tell you to pump a Vector2D into a Vector3D

[limber stone]

not that one

i just typed what the gye sayd and he did say that

[tulip turtle]

Thank you for helping me so much

[tawdry quest]

try this

using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{ 
  public float moveSpeed;
    public float jumpForce;
  public bool isJumping = false;
  public Rigidbody2D rb;
  private Vector2 velocity=Vector2.zero;    

    void Update()
    {
        float horizontalMovement = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
     if(Input.GetButtonDown("Jump"))
     {
            isJumping = true;
     }

     MovePlayer(horizontalMovement);
    }
 
     void MovePlayer(float _horizontalMovement)   
     {
     Vector2 targetVelocity = new Vector2(_horizontalMovement, rb.velocity.y);
     rb.velocity = Vector2.SmoothDamp(rb.velocity, targetVelocity, ref velocity, .05f);

     if(isJumping == true)
     {
      rb.AddForce(new Vector2(0f, jumpForce));
            isJumping = false;
     }

     }
 
}    

I replaced the wrongly used Vector3D with 2D

[radiant sail]

i cant figure out how to make this re-enable the rigidbodys gravity when the stair has been walked over...
can someone plz help

// Stair check
    RaycastHit objHit;
    Vector3 heightVex = new Vector3(0, playerHeight, 0);
    if (Physics.Raycast(lowerStair.transform.position, moveDirection, out objHit, 0.6f, whatIsGround))
    {

        float angle = Vector3.Angle(Vector3.up, objHit.normal);

        if (!Physics.Raycast(upperStair.transform.position, moveDirection, out objHit, 0.6f) && angle > 85)
        {
             rb.drag = 0f;
             rb.useGravity = false;
            rb.position -= new Vector3(0f, -stepSmooth * Time.deltaTime, 0f);


            // Push the player towards the movement direction smoothly
            float pushSpeed = 1f; // Adjust the speed as needed
            Vector3 targetPosition = rb.position + moveDirection * 0.5f;
            rb.position = Vector3.Lerp(rb.position, targetPosition, pushSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        }
    }

[tawdry quest]

rb.useGravity = true;

😅

just do an else case with that

unless i missunderstand something

[limber stone]

it still walk step by step very slowly but jump good

[radiant sail]

it dosent work when i do that

[tawdry quest]

increase the movespeed in the editor

[limber stone]

wen i do its very clumbsy and not clean

like it go fast go slow go fast go slow

[tawdry quest]

can you activate the performance window or maybe im overlooking something (can someone else please look over it =))

in the game window there is a option to show the performance window with the fps

[limber stone]

its not fps bcs i have rly nice pc and jump is clean

[tawdry quest]

ah ok

[limber stone]

do you think i should use an other script

like take it

[tawdry quest]

are you following this tutorial ? If no, follow this one instead
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtQMytORBmM

[safe flicker]

Hi , i'm starting to code on Unity with C# and i'm following a tutorial to start somewhere
i'm doing exactly everything the guy do but i don't have the same result x) here are some picture
for my movement or the blue square everything work fine but for the square i can't fill any value like Speed min max X and min max Z
Anyone know what's happening ?

[rare basin]

is your IDE configured?

also you need to fix compile errors

that's why it doesnt work

[queen adder]

i cant explain like what i want but, this walls are strange like when i jump and walk i can stay on the wall, anyone know how to stop that?

[languid spire]

very far from 'exactly'

[queen adder]

it looks like have super glue on it

[eternal needle]

Are you using rigidbody velocity to move? You need to set friction to 0 if so

Otherwise post code

[safe flicker]

that's the video script

[rare basin]

@safe flicker configure your IDE first

and fix compile errors

[languid spire]

yep, totally different to yours

[rare basin]

wdym by totally different?

[queen adder]

this thing?

[eternal needle]

That would be a rigidbody yes

[queen adder]

but where i set friction to 0?

[languid spire]

Exhibit A
Exhibit B

[queen adder]

i am sorry for my questions i am still learning

[rare basin]

yes i spotted the difference but i wouldnt say its TOTALLY different 😄

it's just because his IDE is not even configured

[safe flicker]

i was searching a error for a solid 15 min staring at it tbh before i send my msg x) new to it i was blind thx

[eternal needle]

You need a physics material which you assign on the collider

[earnest atlas]

Need help with tile rules. I dont get how to make them work.

I want top one only to be on right and never in other different positions.

Second one in middle, 3rd one on right only

[safe flicker]

work now

[rare basin]

@safe flicker

man

configure your IDE

you'd have spotted the error in 5 seconds instead of 15minutes

[cosmic quail]

!ide

[eternal falcon]

💡 IDE Configuration

If your IDE is not autocompleting code
or underlining errors, please configure it.

Select one:

• Visual Studio (Installed via Unity Hub)
• Visual Studio (Installed manually)
• VS Code
• JetBrains Rider
• Other/None

[safe flicker]

i don't know what a IDE is

[earnest atlas]

OMg not again

[rare basin]

then google it

[earnest atlas]

An IDE (Integrated Development Environment)

[rare basin]

and when you find out, configure your IDE

[safe flicker]

i'll do it

[opal ridge]

I'm wanting to make enemies spawn outside the screen. Do I need to make it spawn outside of the viewport or can I also just make it spawn a certain distance from the player which probably is outside of the viewport?

[earnest atlas]

Both

[languid spire]

@rare basin You know as well as I do, this is programming, a one character difference in a script of 1,000 lines can make the outcome totally different

[rare basin]

well if you have a scrpit of 1000 lines then you made some architecture issue 😄

but yes i get it

[opal ridge]

I don't intend on making u do the work, but I have figured out the viewport, how do I make it spawn outside of this? Is it like ```cs
vector2(random.range(and somewhere here outside that viewport))

[swift crag]

One option is to randomly choose whether to spawn to the left or right

[earnest atlas]

Get camera size and just use x and y bigger then camera size on random?

[swift crag]

then you can pick a random position that's less than the left edge or larger than the right edge

repeat this for the Y axis and you're good

[opal ridge]

It's top-down so im intending to make it spawn top bottom left right

[swift crag]

Vector2 result = Vector2.zero;
bool left = Random.value < 0.5f;

if (left)
  result.x = Random.Range(-0.3f, -0.1f);
else
  result.x = Random.Range(1.1f, 1.3f);

this would give a 50-50 chance of being on the left or the right

and pick a reasonable view-space position that's a little bit off the edge

[opal ridge]

so here I would make another bool for top and make it again 50/50 with top or bottom?

[swift crag]

Right.

If you want to do pixel distance (screen-space) or physical distances (world-space), you'd just replace those constants in the Random.Range calls

so for screen space you might do Screen.width and Screen.width + 100f to spawn on the right side

for world space, you'd need to first compute where the right edge of the screen is

Vector3 rightPos = Camera.main.ViewportToWorldPoint(Vector3.right);

result.x = Random.Range(rightPos.x, rightPos.x + 5);

This would spawn something up to 5 meters off the right side of the screen.

[simple cedar]

hello everyone hope you are well, I am a beginner and I would like to have a script that allows me to get in and out of a vehicle and be able to drive with my vehicle and already on my scene and my character the same I can move with my character and move the camera but I can't make it go up and down, thank you for your help!

[earnest atlas]

lmao no

[rare basin]

with what exactly do you have issue

and what do you have so far

describe your issue, no one will pull your tongue to tell us that

[earnest atlas]

I have a suspition he considers this chat as ChatGPT

[cosmic quail]

well they said "but I can't make it go up and down" so maybe hes done everything and the only problem is his camera cant go up and down? in which case u have to post ur script @simple cedar so we can help fix it

[rare basin]

okay so what does i cant make it go up and down even mean?

we dont need to speculate

we need facts

[cosmic quail]

allow me to speculate. the camera cant go up and down and it only moves sideways

😄

[earnest atlas]

He kinda got silent

[polar acorn]

And without code how are we supposed to answer that other than "make the camera go up and down instead of not doing that"

[simple cedar]

basically my character is functional I can move with my vehicle and script but I will need the script so that the character can enter and exit the vehicle and be able to use it

[rare basin]

and what have you done so far to try and achieve that?

[simple cedar]

I watch YouTube tutorials and I get a Unity Standard Assets error but the problem is that Unity removed this so I'm looking for a new script

[rare basin]

what did unity remove?

entering and exiting vehicle?

Unity Standard Assets is not related to a enter/exit vehicle system you want to create

[simple cedar]

using UnityStandardAssets.Vehicles.Car;

[rare basin]

then make your own system

to enter/exit vehicle

[simple cedar]

yes that's what I'm thinking of doing but I don't really know that's why I'm asking you here

[rare basin]

it depends on what design do you want

do you want it to be raycast based

to enter vehicle

or trigger based when you are close to a vehicle

plenty of interactable things tutorials

[simple cedar]

in trigger

[rare basin]

then do it

and when you face certain issue then ask

we won't make the code for you

[earnest atlas]

I have some weird tile? The one on left doesnt even exist in my rule set

[simple cedar]

do you have a video? because I only have tutorials on old unity

[rare basin]

this is a code related channel

[rare basin]

you can google it yourself

[earnest atlas]

Where then to deal with Grid Rule tile

[rare basin]

watch some, pick one you like the most

[rare basin]

not in code related channel 🤷

[simple cedar]

ok ok thanks you !

#🖼️┃2d-tools

[cunning rapids]

My cursor is still visible ven though I set its lock state and visibility

[earnest atlas]

Its because its standart sprite for it bruh

[cosmic quail]

show code so we dont have to speculate i guess

[cunning rapids]

Ugh screenshots don't show the cursor

But trust me it's there

[cosmic quail]

well the way i would debug this first is add a debug log in there to see if this code is even getting run

[queen adder]

My "enemey" is dumb, and when he spots me he walks trough the walls, how can i make him smart?

[cunning rapids]

My player movement is a mess

It has both camera functionality and movement combined

[cosmic quail]

how is this code even called? show entire script so we can see where the issue is

[cunning rapids]

Debug.Log(Cursor.lockstate);
``` should work right?

[cunning rapids]

Start() method

[frosty hound]

Are you actually clicking into your game view?

[cunning rapids]

Meaning?

[frosty hound]

Click the game view?

[cunning rapids]

Yes?

Also holy shit my code is like 500 lines for wallrunning jumping and sliding

That can't be efficient

[late bobcat]

Guys i know it's not the right session but i don't know where to ask tbh.
https://gyazo.com/5a21e422ea809071c3e939e96d687baa does anybody know why the player_equip animation get stuck at the end and prevent other animation from playing? The transition has a trigger condition

[verbal dome]

Use pathfinding such as the builtin NavMesh

[cosmic quail]

so ur clicking on the game view and it still doesnt work? show ur start method then

[polar acorn]

Log Cursor.visible in update. See if it's getting set back to true

[cosmic quail]

and if it is then ctrl+f and search for cursor.visible to see where you're setting it to true again

[cosmic quail]

that's not Cursor.visible

thats Cursor.lockState

[stiff stump]

https://gyazo.com/e673af66f66cee3a8f423e36a92101e3

im having an issue where the trigger collision between the player and a pickup item wont happen until i click on the player object in the heerarchy

[cosmic quail]

so ur probably not clicking on ur game view then? like u gotta click it once when u start playing

[cunning rapids]

It had a few "False" statements and then suddenly a bunch of "True"

[cosmic quail]

wait what

[polar acorn]

If it just keeps spamming false then the cursor is invisible and it's likely just an issue with your editor. Either you aren't focusing the game or you've got a stuck alt key or something

[cosmic quail]

ctrl+f for "Cursor.visible" and show where else it is in your code

[polar acorn]

Yeah that's probably what you should have sent instead of just saying it's "False". You have code elsewhere setting it to true

[cunning rapids]

I honestly can't even remember where or what is everything because my code is so stupidly complex

half a thousand lines just for jumping, crouching/sliding and wallrunning

There is a surprisingly high lack of quality movement tutorials on rigidbody online

[verbal dome]

Movement code tends to be large

[cunning rapids]

500 lines for 3 basic functionalities?

It also handles camera controlling

[cosmic quail]

luckily all u need to do is ctrl+f for Cursor.visible and it shows you

[queen adder]

how do i do that

How to fix Grid Tilemap collider 2d being quite wrong?
Its way too far away from visible tiles. I can stand almost one extra tile futher then they end

[cunning rapids]

Can someone please link a good tutorial for fast-paced rigidbody movement?

Actually nevermind

I can try find a system I used in the past that worked well

It was buggy but I was able to fix it relatively quickly

And build on top of it

[verbal dome]

Its also good to mention what kinda game you are making when asking for a tutorial

[cunning rapids]

Fast-Paced FPS

I've been going back and forth on games

Once I wanted to make a 2D game and another 3rd person story-driven one

I just looped back to FPS

Might as well finish it

[late bobcat]

bump

[verbal dome]

You dont have a transition from player_equip to another state

Transitions are one-way

Also your IsEquip trigger is true so it will keep going to that state

[earnest atlas]

I tried using unity Imput system. I created it in 2 places one is DontDeleteOnLoad gameobject other is Player that is on the scene.

One is interfiering with another. Should I only create it once in the dontdeleteOnload object and access it in the player?

[swift crag]

you created what?

two PlayerInput components?

[earnest atlas]

private PlayerControls _playerControls;

[swift crag]

and what is PlayerControls?

[earnest atlas]

Unity Input sistem

[swift crag]

PlayerControls is not the "unity input system"

so you checked the "Generate C# Class" option?

[earnest atlas]

It was working before I incialized anothe instance of them in different class

[green copper]

Is Gradle something I need to manually install to build a project for android?

[delicate zinc]

i think i shouldnt be capturing when there is a hotcontrol

[swift crag]

Are you using this? https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.inputsystem@1.8/manual/ActionAssets.html#auto-generating-script-code-for-actions

[earnest atlas]

Im pretty sure it comes with android studio

[verbal dome]

This is why I have warnings off in the console lol

[swift crag]

Warning: Reactor temperature critical 😴

[earnest atlas]

Im using this

[delicate zinc]

should i switch to the new input system

[swift crag]

I know you are.

But did you go and check the box here to generate a class from your input action asset?

[delicate zinc]

im used to the old one and im not bothered to learn the new one but is there anything better abt it

[earnest atlas]

If it was working before it means I have setup it correctly

[swift crag]

This is a simple yes or no question.

Yes or no.

[earnest atlas]

Well old one detects one action/frame new one can take in multiple

Arent you reading what I write?

[swift crag]

Yes. I am. You haven't answered my question.

[earnest atlas]

IT WAS WORKING BEFORE MEANS YES I DID

Its still working but in borked manner

[swift crag]

there are lots of ways to receive input.

I'm not asking you if your code used to work. I'm asking you which way you're getting input.

[green copper]

I need help deciphering this error message, it occurs whenever I try to build my project for android

[swift crag]

given that your asset is named PlayerControls, I'm guessing you did, indeed, use the "Generate C# Class" option

[earnest atlas]

void OnEnable()
{

A: this is not android server
B: I hate it with passion
C: God save you from android

[swift crag]

and this code looks exactly like what you'd get if you checked the "Generate C# Class" option, yes

[tame ferry]

Is there are way to stor A* from cluttering the console?

[earnest atlas]

As I said before it was working okey before. I made another instance of it in different object and it got borked

[late bobcat]

so from player_equip i should do a transition to any other state? IsEquipTrigger was true cause it was stuck x)

[swift crag]

You are trying to answer a different question than I am asking.

I asked how you got input, not whether it worked

[verbal dome]

Yes

[swift crag]

You can get input in many different ways.

A generated C# class is just one of them

[late bobcat]

i'll try thanks bro

[swift crag]

i presume this is some third party asset

it should have options for that somewhere

[earnest atlas]

 private PlayerControls _controls;

 void Awake()
 {
     _rb = gameObject.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
     _controls = new PlayerControls();
 }```

Its only way is C# generated script

[swift crag]

i don't understand why you're showing me random pieces of code instead of just saying "yes, I'm using the 'Generate C# Class'" option

[earnest atlas]

ITS THE ONLY OPTION

[swift crag]

I do not understand what that means. There are many ways to get input, like InputActionReference and the PlayerInput component. That's why I needed to be sure which one you were really using.

anyway, coming back to the original problem...

[late bobcat]

@verbal dome any idea on what i should put to exit a trigger? (to go from player_equip to idle) let's say

https://gyazo.com/4195a4582c9417a12a56ffaea28cc30c reference

like on the exit transition what should i put? As far as i know triggers should reset after the animation is called, no?

[polar acorn]

Whatever condition you want to cause the transition to occur

[swift crag]

I think you're seeing "interference" because the first PlayerControls is grabbing the devices, so the second one can't find any more devices to bind to. I don't use the generated C# class in my own game, so I can't be completely sure about that.

Keeping a single instance on a DontDestroyOnLoad-ed object sounds fine. You can just make it a singleton that the player component looks for.

I mostly use InputActionReference to reference specific input actions

[earnest atlas]

Gonna look that up. Now me sleep

Iq = 0/0

[verbal dome]

Dont need a condition in this case, just make Has Exit Time true

So it automatically exits via the transition when player_equip finishes

And yes triggers are just booleans that go false automatically when a transition uses it

[queen adder]

I have a script that create a maze randomly, and i add a enemy but my enemy instead of go around the walls he face it, and try go trough it, i already have seen some videos, with Nav mesh, but it doenst work, idk if it is because of the maze is generated randomly or i am doing something wrong.

[wintry quarry]

seems like your navmesh wasn't generated with the walls in mind

You can also use A* for this

[verbal dome]

Did you look at the NavMesh after it's generated?

[queen adder]

i dont understand much of unity so have i high chance of me doing something wrong

[verbal dome]

What steps are you doing to generate the navmesh?

[queen adder]

https://learn.unity.com/tutorial/unity-navmesh

[verbal dome]

If you are generating the maze at runtime, you need to generate the NavMesh after that too

[queen adder]

i dont know how to that

[languid spire]

NavMeshSurface.Bake();

[verbal dome]

Or .BuildNavMesh() unless it was changed in newer versions

[swift crag]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.ai.navigation@1.1/api/Unity.AI.Navigation.NavMeshSurface.BuildNavMesh.html

can i force a button state in code?

what's the desired behavior?

when i switch panels the button i press to switch panels hangs on their last animation, so i wanna know how i can avoid that

hi, im making a room spawn system that spawns a series of rooms in a random order, the way i have it done is for each room theres an empty game object (or more) called room connectors. these spawn other rooms at their position and rotation. the problem is that some rooms have room connectors on all sides, and sometimes (most of the times) some rooms end up clipping through eachother. heres a pic and the code. if theres a way to do it without a grid system then that would be amazing

    public List<Transform> roomConncections;
    public List<GameObject> rooms;
    public List<int> weights;

    void Start()
    {
        int sumOfAllWeights = getSum();
        if(roomController.rooms>0)
        {
            foreach(Transform roomConnLoc in roomConncections)
            {
                int roomRand = Random.Range(1,sumOfAllWeights);
                int i = 0;
                bool spawned = false;
                while(!spawned)
                {
                    if(roomRand<weights[i])
                    {
                        spawned = true;
                        Instantiate(rooms[i], roomConnLoc.position, roomConnLoc.rotation);
                        roomController.rooms-=1;
                    }
                    roomRand -= weights[i];
                    i++;
                }
            } 
        }
    }
    int getSum()
    {
        int s = 0;
        foreach(int weight in weights)
        {
            s+=weight;
        }
        return s;
    }```

[wintry quarry]

sounds like the button you press is going into the selected state

[stuck palm]

clip of my issue

[wintry quarry]

yeah try disabling navigation on them

You can also change this

to do Normal instead

but that would break keyboard selection

[stuck palm]

i'll try that, but its kinda necessary cus i need it for controller navigation

[wintry quarry]

Ok both of those options will break controller navigation actually

maybe add an Event Trigger to it and set up a listener for PointerClick that deselects it.

I have a problem with my code :( my wheel position isn't correct when i load the game. Here is the Scene vs Game while running

Here is my code for updating the wheels:

        // Get wheel collider state
        Vector3 position;
        Quaternion rotation;
        col.GetWorldPose(out position, out rotation);

        // Set wheel transform
        trans.position = position;
        trans.rotation = rotation;
    }

and it gets called from:

        UpdateWheel(frontLeft, frontLeftTransform);

You sure cam.nearClipPlane is right?

You probably want to use Plane.Raycast and Camera.ScreenPointToRay in 3D

not Camera.ScreenToWorldPoint

[stuck palm]

still nothing

[strange peak]

does physics.overlapbox return null when nothing is overlapping

[wintry quarry]

No. It returns a bool

check the docs

Actually sorry it returns an array

again, check the docs

[strange peak]

then why does this give an error if(roomRand<weights[i] && Physics.OverlapBox(new Vector3(0,0,0), roomDimensions[i]))

yea array

[wintry quarry]

because it returns an array

[strange peak]

yep\

[lusty socket]

This is what id use for 2d and thought itd work the same in 3d as the camera isnt moving anywhere or am i completely wrong

You can just use CheckBox if you only want a bool answer

Hey, so I'm getting a Null Reference Exception but when I go to the part of the code that's in the error message I can't find any of the usual culprits of a null reference. The code looks fine to me. It also compiles & runs & behaves exactly how I'd expect it to— except for the debug screaming null reference exception

            {
                bool isInRange = Vector3.Distance(transform.position, target.position) < weaponRange;

                if (target != null && !isInRange)
                {
                    mover.MoveTo(target.position);
                }

                else
                {
                    mover.StopMovement();
                }
            }```

Line 28 would be `bool isInRange = Vector3.Distance(transform.position, target.position) < weaponRange;`

target was null

You check for that, but 2 lines after, too late

[polar acorn]

If this is for object pooling, you would detect if you need to spawn an object and there's none left in the pool, if so, spawn one

That way the pool is by definition always the smallest it has to be to cover the worst-case scenario

Hm, if I have two objects with collider2D's on them that are both set to "IsTrigger", can I make those two collide? They don't appear to be driggering "OnTriggerEnter" when they touch. I'm getting some mixed information online.

Would it be a bad idea to try to do this?

Debug log Cursor.visible and Cursor.lockState in Update. See if they stay false and Locked respectively

one small thing to be aware of: in the editor, hitting Escape will always show the cursor

regardless of the cursor lock settings in the game

[cunning rapids]

It works now for some reason

I restarted the editor

clicking in the game view will re-lock the cursor if needed

aight i got this problem now, supposed to be playing playerCrouchHit:

Also, code: https://paste.mod.gg/swdcvhbggqza/1

[woeful lagoon]

could it just be speeding up so much as to ignore the borders and teleport?

[polar acorn]

Why should it be playing PlayerCrouchHit

Nothing in the code plays that state directly and you have no transitions

[honest haven]

yh thats why i switched to continuouos speculative

but still pass through

just incase it was a speed issue

but its only one object moving not multi

[polar acorn]

MovePosition ignores continuous, it's a teleport that also provides collision callbacks

If you teleport all the way past something you never collided with it

Either check your distance manually with a raycast before calling MovePosition or move the object via velocity

[honest haven]

is there a reason it detects it at smaller speeds i see it hit the collider

[polar acorn]

Because at lower speeds its not teleporting past the collider

The TouchEnded function will not run, verified using the inspector that TouchCount did reach zero and isCurrentlyTouching was true

[swift crag]

you set isCurrentlyTouching to false at the top of the Update method

[green copper]

Right, meant to remove that. The issue remains though, except now TouchEnded will run exactly once and never again

that line setting isCurrentlyTouching to false was part of my attempted debugging

[swift crag]

Should work fine after that fix. isCurrentlytTouching will be reset to false after calling touchEnd

it'll become true again the next time Input.touchCount > 0 is true

[green copper]

Current script, console log after two touch events, and inspector after same two touch events

TouchCount went from zero, to one, then back to zero, but touchEnded never ran a second time and isCurrentlyTouching stayed enabled

[swift crag]

does selectedItemGrid become null?

if you don't think it is, prove that it doesn't by logging its value

I see no other reason (other than an exception being thrown) for touchEnded() to not execute

[green copper]

one moment, adding the log line

THAT'S IT

when the touch is let go, the pointer is no longer on the grid and the selected grid becomes null!

I was trying to transition from mouse control to touch and didn't realize!

[swift crag]

that'll do it (:

[green copper]

Thank you so much, this has been plaguing me for like six hours at this point I could kiss you

I have no idea how to solve it but it's not a magic ghost problem anymore

[swift crag]

Always verify that the code is actually running! Logging or attaching a debugger can help with that

[green copper]

the script that handles selectedItemGrid is attached to a different object so it never even occurred to me

thank you again

[green copper]

fix was thankfully simpler than I was afraid of, I just made it wait 250 milliseconds to nullify the grid so I can keep all my other functionality that relies on this stuff

[fathom bramble]

I don't know if this question belongs in ⁠animation because it's not specifically about how to do it, it's more conceptual so if it does belong there, I apologize.

But can someone explain how animation works within a game loop?

So for example, let's say you have a simple scene with a cube in it. Right now every time a script's update() is called, I update the cubes position to make it move. That makes sense to me.

But let's say I've got a humanoid that has a run animation. I know the humanoid model gets rigged and whatnot but how does that conceptually work in the code? Would the update method just call the animation once? If so, how does it keep getting rendered each frame? Unless it calls it more than once?

[buoyant knot]

My man can’t even behave in front of a mod. Even children know to wait for when their parents are gone. smh

Which is not to condone, but to highlight the lack of self control.

[buoyant knot]

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Animator.Update.html

Imagine Animator has Update(Time.deltaTime) called in Update loop.

this advances the animation, if it is playing.

Also, i thought animator was really only for 2D sprites?

[fickle plume]

And you can see here what animation curves are being used https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/animeditor-UsingAnimationEditor.html

[buoyant knot]

also, this: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ExecutionOrder.html

that page describes when shit happens. It is an extremely useful page

I would not write Move this way

[short hazel]

Inside. It's not really about optimization, but more to not clutter the class with members that are not used anywhere else

[buoyant knot]

I would write Move as a function of the movement vector

Move should not be a function of input action callback context

The most efficient code is written in assembly

[static bay]

we can go further

[short hazel]

Since the variables here are all value types (structs), then it spares a call to "load the memory address of this class instance" to retrieve the variable values. So, prefer local variables

[buoyant knot]

Because it’s bad architecture/design. With respect to single responsibility principle, Move should solely be tasked with Moving by the amount, not both parsing controller input AND moving

also you don’t want to store more variables/fields in your class. it is actively bad

the fewer fields your class has, the better off it will usually be. within reason

[short hazel]

It's insignificant. A few nanoseconds at worst

[buoyant knot]

why are you concerned with optimization if you struggle with basic code architecture?

you are putting lipstick on a pig

focus on architecture/design before you even bother with optimization.

[eternal needle]

It being insignificant does matter. It makes literally 0 difference, any concerns otherwise are just ignoring how to keep your code clean.

Run the profiler if you truly need to see what's worse

You've spent more time thinking about the difference than the difference would be if it was run 1 million times

then you should speak as though you understand, and not like you still want to optimize your code at the cost of your sanity. Because that is the vibe I’m getting

Hey so I want to know if this is reasonable or insane overengineering. I've noticed that a lot of what I'm doing boils down to collecting some group of objects, filtering them, and then doing something with them. I wanted to try making a system where I could dynamically define how a series of objects were captured, and the filtering that would be applied to them, all in the inspector.

TriggerUnityEvents exposes some UnityEvents to hook into when something enters/exits the trigger. It has a filter which will make sure only gameobjects with specific conditions pass. In this case, a specific tag.
This uuuuh, too much?

(moderators can still see edits made to this channel though, so your deletions were logged)

Then why delete your conversation? Doesn't make much sense

quick question, would it be ok if i plcace the wait for second before the if? or inside at the beginning in the if

[rich adder]

that wont do anything

[clear seal]

how come

[rich adder]

you are starting a new coroutine everyframe too btw

[rich adder]

do a can shoot bool and run that in the coroutine timer

[short hazel]

If you put it before, it'll wait then see if you're pressing F, requiring pretty insane timing to hit the key at the exact moment the coroutine resumes

[polar acorn]

Your wait does nothing and you're shooting every frame

[buoyant knot]

Wow, my comments look toxic without that context now lmao

[clear seal]

but then how do i do so

[clear seal]

hold on i think canon should wait like thhat

🤷‍♂️ the description doesnt really even say what you're doing with them, so it's possible it is a bit over engineered. It might even cause troubles down the line when you want to use your system but it needs more than what unity event provides
