What happens if it doesn't/isn't-able-to find the object?

austere osprey
#

i fixed the issue, i'm just stupid. but i don't know why it refused to get the object since the objects were in the scene and had the correct names 🤔 ah well, if it ain't broken, don't fix it

why does this work

#

oh

#

why isn't it valid tho

#

it makes total sense doesn't it?

ivory bobcat
#

Because -5 < y < 5 isn't a thing

ornate lynx
#

how?

ivory bobcat
#

How what?

ornate lynx
#

that is a thing...

polar acorn
ornate lynx
#

well

#

ok ok

polar acorn
#

if takes a boolean as a parameter. < is an operator that returns a boolean when given two numbers. x < y < z would evaulate to (x < y) < z) which would be checking if false was less than z which makes no sense

tall delta
# ornate lynx how?

because what you have is basically this:
((-5 < y) < 5)
that then get's evaled this this:
(true < 5)
and that doesn't make sense

So, just to make sure, you want to run this loop over Classes.Ship.list[i].Object_List until you find any element whose type is not "Glue", then exit, right?

raw kindle
polar acorn
#

right?

raw kindle
polar acorn
#

that's the entire point of the middle parameter of a for loop

raw kindle
#

oh

polar acorn
#

the loop runs until that statement returns false

#

If you want to loop over everything and do something if that thing's type is Glue, just use a foreach with an if statement in it

Why does

    private Vector3 GetMousePosition => MainCamera.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);

Give different position every other frame?

Origin: (-319.10, -31.11, -10.00) Difference: (-259.77, -7.96, 0.00) MousePos: (-578.87, -39.07, -10.00)
Origin: (-319.10, -31.11, -10.00) Difference: (0.00, 0.00, 0.00) MousePos: (-319.10, -31.11, -10.00)
polar acorn
#

Is your camera moving

hollow zenith
#

Yes, but its uh flashing around

#

since the mouse pos is changing every other frame

polar acorn
#

If the camera moves, the world position your mouse is at also changes

hollow zenith
#

I am trying to use input system Vector as a mouse position to see if that helps.

#

oh

#

I've been following an old tutorial

#

Maybe its outdated?

#

or perhaps I have to setup my camera in a specific way

polar acorn
#

Try logging Input.mousePosition and see if it's actually moving

hollow zenith
#

its not

# 
Origin: (28.22, 47.03, -10.00) Difference: (28.22, 47.03, 0.00) MousePos: (56.44, 94.07, -10.00) MouseInputPos: (633.50, 378.00, 0.00)
Origin: (28.22, 47.03, -10.00) Difference: (0.00, 0.00, 0.00) MousePos: (28.22, 47.03, -10.00) MouseInputPos: (633.50, 378.00, 0.00)
#

Hmm, its still flickering.
MainCamera.ScreenToWorldPoint( this part is causing the issue, I probably need to deduct the starting position, or update starting position on each frame as I move the camera.

ivory bobcat
#

Looks like there isn't any problems with the property

hollow zenith
# 
    public void OnDrag(InputAction.CallbackContext ctx)
    {
        if (ctx.started) DragOrigin = GetMousePosition;
  
        IsDragging = ctx.started || ctx.performed;
    }

    private void LateUpdate()
    {
        if (!IsDragging) return;

        DragDifference = GetMousePosition - DragOrigin;

        Debug.Log($"Origin: {DragOrigin} Difference: {DragDifference} MousePos: {GetMousePosition} MouseInputPos: {Input.mousePosition}");

        transform.position = DragOrigin - DragDifference;
    }

    private Vector3 GetMousePosition => MainCamera.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
ivory bobcat
#

What's the issue? It looks correct where your mouse in world coordinates is changing because your camera is moving.

#

If you want it not relative to the camera position, subtract the camera position from the result and you'll get the position without the camera offset.

hollow zenith
#

I am just not sure why it works in year old tutorial, but not for me.

ivory bobcat
#

Describe what you mean by work and not work?

hollow zenith
#

In the tutorial it drags the camera without flickering

ivory bobcat
#

If you're referring to the coordinate changing because your camera is moving, it's got nothing to do with versions

hollow zenith
#

in my case it changes position every second frame

#

Yeah, but the code in the tutorial works, but doesnt for me.
Even tho I did everything the same(I think codewise at least), so what could be different?

Trying to mess with z index of the mouse output based on some comments under that video.

#

I know its not the solution, but just want to see whats wrong <_<

ivory bobcat
#

Sounds like the ui isn't updating quickly enough or possibly desynchronized movement (physics step vs update)

hollow zenith
# 
Origin: (746.02, 203.33, -10.00) Difference: (54.99, -40.52, 0.00) MousePos: (801.01, 162.81, -10.00) MouseInputPos: (527.50, 402.00, 0.00)
Origin: (746.02, 203.33, -10.00) Difference: (-177.28, 123.73, 0.00) MousePos: (568.74, 327.06, -10.00) MouseInputPos: (529.50, 403.00, 0.00)

You can see MousePos changing by a large amount every 2nd frame, I am using LateUpdate as in the tutorial.
I just dont know why it works for the guy in the video, but not me 😄

ivory bobcat
#

It is teleporting randomly. Not sure what you're seeing

hollow zenith
#

not randomly

#

you can see log output

ivory bobcat
#

I don't know what you mean by not working so I can't help you.

hollow zenith
#

mousePos x: 801 then 568 next frame.

# 
    public void OnDrag(InputAction.CallbackContext ctx)
    {
        if (ctx.started) DragOrigin = GetMousePosition();

        IsDragging = ctx.started || ctx.performed;
    }
#

new input system -> Button -> Right mouse button

timber tide
#

could probably lerp it as a bandaid

hollow zenith
#

I will find/figure out a better solution, I am just trying to figure out why the video tutorial works, but not when I try it on my side

#

I must be doing something wrong, or my unity version is different from that video <_<

timber tide
#

ya sure it's not local to what you're dragging

hollow zenith
#

I attached this script to camera

timber tide
#

if (ctx.started) DragOrigin = GetMousePosition;
This doesn't cache if that matters since you're always getting a new point each time it's accessed

ivory bobcat
#

Maybe instead of converting into world coordinates just add the difference? position -= delta

hollow zenith
#

I think ctx.started happens only once on mouse down?

#

It seems to be the case if I hold mouse and drag far the "difference" gets higher

timber tide
#

oh, right it only should do it once

ivory bobcat
#

As your camera is moving in the world, you'll get teleporting

timber tide
#

LateUpdate is interesting but most dragging ive done is through IPointerDrag

dim bridge
#

Hello, is anyone willign to explain the axis controls for rotating character joints in better depth to me or link me to an explanation. It seems confusing and like it sometimes defys being a direction or rotation (im guessing it is due to it being local to the object transform)

hollow zenith
#

This solution from that video comments almost fixed the issue:

  private Vector3 GetMousePosition()
  {
      Vector3 MousePos = Input.mousePosition;
      MousePos.z = 10;
      return MainCamera.ScreenToWorldPoint(MousePos);
  }
#

Since my camera is at z -10

ivory bobcat
#

Things to consider Move Mouse Update Camera Position (The mouse is no longer at the assumed world location as the camera has moved) etc

ember tangle
# 
{
        
    if(collision.GetComponent<BoxCollider2D>())
    {
        BoxCollider2D boxColliderCollision = collision.GetComponent<BoxCollider2D>();
        
        if(boxCollider.size.x > boxColliderCollision.size.x && boxCollider.size.y > boxColliderCollision.size.y)
        {
            _resetOnDrop = true;
        }
    }/**/

}```
Is there a reason that this if statement is not working?
timber tide
#

define not working

rich adder
ivory bobcat
#

If you just offset the camera position by mouse position in screen space, it'll not change bizarrely

ember tangle
rich adder
#

also collision..GetComponent is prob wrong, you prob just want collision.collider

#

make sure you code editor is showing you these syntax errors

timber tide
hollow zenith
#

I think that I should be able to do it with just detecting mouse pos and moving camera based on that value.(difference between origin + camera pos)

timber tide
#

IPointerDrag can be used on anything, but your issue is more related to the camera anyway

hollow zenith
#

if camera is at 0,0,0 and mouse origin at 20, 20, 0 then I move mouse to 30, 20, 0. It should move camera to 10, 0,0

#

I think thats the logic.

also if you are doing multiple dot access operations, then debug left to right.

ivory bobcat
#

Without all the fancy stuff it's practically just cs transform.position -= dragDifferenceInScreenSpace;

hollow zenith
#

Yeah, I will try that

#

Why in screen space tho?

#

Shouldnt it be in world space?

ivory bobcat
#

Use a scalar if you're wanting to decrease or accelerate the camera movement.

Is there any way to increase the time we spend on loading screen? Right now it happens in an instant and I cannot even read what it says on the screen. Also cannot event properly see my progress bar doing its job.

hollow zenith

oh so just ising Input.mousePosition already made a huge difference.

The dragging is wrong, but its not flickering anymore

I guess as you said, I can just do an artificial wait then

I was not expecting the loading and transitioning between scenes to be this hard

Is it better to have a lot of scenes or as few scenes as possible? Also, how would you manage scenes in an optimized way? This will become messy with more than 10 scenes, no?:

Going back to my problem.
This "works", I just need to set DragSpeed to 200 for it to be usable, but it works well.

Actually removing Time.deltaTime works perfect at 1 drag speed.

thats probably why

it is disabled

btw is both input system required for using an event system?

ffs its always the most stupid things i waste 5 hours on

yh i think both require eventsystem

regardless event system is needed for canvas raycaster

is it normal that when i press a button, unity does detect it but sometimes does what it's supposed to do and sometimes not?

rich adder

we don't know what "normal" is without context

hot palm
ornate lynx
#

is it frequent?

hot palm
#

Had multiplie UI Elements bugging my sliders or buttons

ornate lynx
#

except this is not happeneing with ui

rich adder
#

what is the actual issue in the code?

hot palm
rich adder
#

you have code using one input system while having player settings to another setting

hot palm
#

Yeah the event system uses the old input system

#

Is there a new event system?

ornate lynx
rich adder
#

this error is nothing to do with the event system

#

it tells yu Input.GetButtonDown

hot palm
#

True I misread

#

Thought this is in the event system

rich adder

You cannot use Input class if you have new input system selected in player settings

#

unless you had Both on (not ideal)

Is there a way to get camera x,y position to stay consistent even after changing camera ortographic size?

        DragOrigin = Input.mousePosition;

        if (transform.position.x < 0) transform.position = new Vector3(0, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
        if (transform.position.x > 2200) transform.position = new Vector3(2200, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
        if (transform.position.y < 0) transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, 0, transform.position.z);
        if (transform.position.y > 3000) transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, 3000, transform.position.z);

        MainCamera.orthographicSize += 1;
    }

I am trying to lock the camera within certain bounds, so when I drag it, you cant go beyond those points(hardcoded for now)
But when you change its size, camera x,y wont match my previous setup.

Camera 0,0 is no longer bottom left corner of my worldmap, the corner becomes like 250,300 after resizing camera bit.
So if I force the corner to 0,0 the camera will leave the worldmap bounds.

I have an issue with the mouse position being captured incorrectly when I load the scene which requires the mouse position to be captured. but when testing the scene in isolation, the mouse pos capturing feature works properly. This is probably because my camera position changes between the two scenes, but as the scene's camera is used for taking the position (not the previous scene's cameras), I don't know why it doesnt work

wait, i just had an idea, what if i could make a 3x3 grid around the tree, and for every cel the player is in, a different animation is played

i should be payed for this

hollow zenith
# hot palm You can reference the transform component of the camera

I already reference it I think, in my code above, but camera x,y change when you resize it(if I try to keep my camera stuck to the bottom left corner of my world map)
Is there a way to work with that?
Maybe I need to update camera position.
I think camera pivot might help, so when its resized its stuck to the bottom left.(not sure if thats the way tho, but its a start)

hot palm

You could make it static then

SCENE CHANGE AND CAMERA CHANGE -> MOUSE POSITION NO LONGER BEING CAPTURED CORRECTLY

hot palm
hollow zenith
hot palm
#

Check how much the camera should be moved when changing the size by 1 and add that to the x and y

hollow zenith
#

So camera cant go outside of 0,0(bottom left), but after resizing the camera ortographic size, 0,0 is no longer the same from camera point of view(because its origin/pivot is in the center?)

#

Let me try that, I was hoping for a more automated way, but its a good start 😄

#

540.2 size is "perfect" size that match my worldspace canvas at 0,0

hot palm
#

Then have a script do something like
int size = (int)[GetSize]; (you need to implement GetSize)
float x = someValues * size;
float y = someOtherValues * size;
this.transform.Translate(new Vector2(x,y));

hollow zenith
#

yes this will get complicated, I cant calculate the size properly, even manually <_<

#

Can I/should I add collider to camera?

hot palm
#

Only if you want it to get stuck

hollow zenith
#

I can use that to detect if camera left map bounds

hot palm
#

Or to make it trigger something

#

Yeah

#

why people always uses vector3 while creating character rotation? if it is 2d platformer for example

#

why we cant use vector2? why we need z

rich adder
hot palm
#

To turn it sideways?

ancient trench
hot palm
#

Like tripping

slender nymph
#

Well for starters in 2d you are rotating around the z axis

hot palm
#

Yep

ancient trench
#

but isnt z a depth

hot palm
#

Z axis is actually the best as you won't ever lose sight of your 2D characters regardless of the z rotation

rich adder
#

you only use a float if you use rigidbody which is prob how you should move/rot character

#

no v3 needed

hot palm
#

It's about rotation

#

I mean if a ball is rolling in 2D it's rotating around the z axis

rich adder
hot palm
#

If you rotate around x or y you can't see them near -90 and 90 degrees

ancient trench
#

okey next question

hot palm
rich adder
#

made plenty of faux 3d topdowns by using the Y axis as camera forward

#

so plane was Z,X

hot palm
#

But you will always move on the 1 and 2 axis, while rotating around the 3 axis

rich adder
#

rotating on Y

ancient trench
#

why we using vector 3 while turning character sideways? ```private void Turn()
{
Vector3 scale = transform.localScale;
scale.x *= -1;
transform.localScale = scale;

    IsFacingRight = !IsFacingRight;

}```

#

for example here

hot palm
#

I would use flip sprite

ancient trench
#

just cause localscale is vector3 by default in unity?

rich adder
rich adder
#

V3 and V2 can be plugged in the same

ancient trench
#

i mean i just wanna know WHY we use vector3 in turning 2d

rich adder
#

they just can't be in the same operations

ancient trench
#

only because scale is vector3 by default kk, ty

rich adder
#

so it only makes sense rotation happens in that axis

hot palm
#

Well I don't know how thin a 2D character is, but if the Z axis is 0 it wouldn't be visual

rich adder
#

but again since its 3D engine you can rotate on Y axis and still get a flip effect (side scroller flip)

rich adder
slender nymph
rich adder
#

the only differences is 2D uses box2D for physics and 3d uses physix (so obviously you cannot mix match colliders / rbs)

#

but they pretty much have the same method thanks to unity's api

hot palm
#

Don't they work the same just forgetting about the 3rd dimension?

ornate lynx
rich adder
#

hence why Rigidbody2D has no Vector2 for rotation

#

there is only Float needed for rotating 2D

ancient trench
rich adder
rich adder
#

but typically you are doing it on Z axis

#

because the default view is Looking in the Z+ direction

ancient trench
#

i tried to represent this

featured.png
#

like i and -i are moved

rich adder
#

unity inspector uses Euler angles, and so should the methods you use . Unless its a rigidbody 2D which again you need Float

Configure it by following the steps in the above link for your individual IDE and it will work.

Inside of StateHandler there are two if statements, the first if statement will check if the crouch key is pressed and override the “state” variable to crouching. The next if statement, then does a few more checks and overrides the “state” and move speed variables to something else. I’m not sure this will solve your problem entirely however it may fix the issue of the state not updating in the inspector

This could also occur if you created an instance another way, or already had one in the scene.

but it doesnt

How are you confirming that there's not a second instance of MagicBall in the scene that wasn't created by Wizardy?

You could also destroy the Movement instance to cause this exception

Like I this for a laser that bounces out of walls, it send a raycast to see where it should stop expanding and then at the normal of the wall detection it sends another bounce. Now I want to do this but for bullet instead of continuous laser so it has to happen at the collision with the wall getting the normal of the collision but no idea from where to get that

Is that even possible?

north kiln

collisions have points that have normals

north kiln

I am actually using OnTriggerEnter, is that an issue?

north kiln
#

Trigger events don't have normals, no

timber tide
#

You dont have points with trigger so raycasts is still the idea

#

with closest point method I think?

#

it's probably more accurate to just raycast ahead honestly (well, I guess if it gets hit on the sides then maybe the ray wouldn't be ideal)

frigid sequoia
#

So.... I should send a raycast just before the collision?

Hi guys, I made a grid and want a way for objects which are following the mouse to follow within the constraints of the grid. I have asked this many times before but I really am not at the stage where I know how to progress after implementing the sized grid, any pointers or ideas would be appreciated

timber tide
#

probably should give some idea of your implementation

#

or what you have done so far with your grid

scarlet skiff

this is the debug in magicball script

Note how that one is not a clone

scarlet skiff
#

hmm it used to be, i tried to improve the code but here we are

#

thats a good lead i suppose

carmine sierra
# timber tide or what you have done so far with your grid

just made a grid with a correct size, I will have a placeholder which follows the mouse along the grid and will lock to the grid, the placeholder is 5 grid squares tall and one grid square wide. then when the user clicks the mouse, it will place an object at that point. I have implemented everything, apart from the locking to the grid mechanism

scarlet skiff
#

wait actually.. what does that tell us?

#

shouldnt it be a close everytime i instantiate

#

does that mean its like... trying to access the prefab or somewthing

timber tide
carmine sierra

I dont know though I'm just aiming for the easiest solution

teal viper
carmine sierra
timber tide
#

Oh, ok that helps then

#

You just want to snap stuff to the grid indices

astral falcon
timber tide
#

yeah, just need to find closest point and then have the object just appear in the middle of the cell

carmine sierra
astral falcon
carmine sierra
#

is there no way to leverage my already in place grid

carmine sierra
#

that makes sense to me although never rounded in c#

astral falcon
#

You might have to refactor your grid script to use round, because rounding is just math to the closest full number. so 1,2,3,4 and so on. But I guess, your grid might be some fancy .5 or whatever number?

frigid sequoia
#

If I send a raycast in the same frame that the OnTriggerEnter triggers, would it detect the collision or would it pass trough?

you could just change your random.range to 0f, 1f instead since these are normalized values. this is a very simple solution and wouldn't allow for much customizability though. so i would recommend doing further reasearch.

Ok, I booted up and was testing and you're right that it should give me the direction back towards the projectile, but because of the nature of the primitive colliders I was using the hit is never dead-on so it kinda works. The raycast however is the better idea because you do need that surface info usually. I was doing a bunch of things like just assuming my hit was always being reflected as an angle and other things to try to get around not using raycasts.

#

Other problems I had using raycasts though is you need to cast it a little more behind the projectile otherwise you wont hit what's in front of you. Rather I was having clipping issues a bit without moving it back.

undone harbor
# astral falcon Depends on the project.

I usually see two kinds of cameras. One that only points at the player, but can move in a sphere ig. Another that does not move, but you can look at something beside the player. Which one do you use?

Raycasts in general just better for small/quicker projectiles from my experience

Raycast is just a collision check without any projectile similarity

At the very worst I could just literally instantiate the new proyectile with the rotation of the previous one with an offset of 90 or -90 on the Y axis, since the game is basically on a 2D plane

            Instantiate(cards[i], gridLayoutEmpty.transform);
            var local = cards[i].gameObject.GetComponent<Image>();
            MyAction += () => { CardList(local); }; 
        }
    }

    void CardList(Image local)

Or just forego parenting and have the previous child update its position based on the position of the previous parent (if that's the reason you wanted it to be a child)

I seem to be able to set the rotation

but not use LookAt

        {

            if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Return))
            {

    }

    IEnumerator LoadScene()
    {
        Scene currentScene = SceneManager.GetActiveScene();
        var myListeners = GameObject.FindObjectOfType<AudioListener>();
        Destroy(myListeners);

        AsyncOperation asyncLoad = SceneManager.LoadSceneAsync(gameScene, LoadSceneMode.Additive);
        

        while (!asyncLoad.isDone)
        {
            yield return null;

     //   SceneManager.MoveGameObjectToScene(this.gameObject, SceneManager.GetSceneByName(gameScene));
        SceneManager.UnloadSceneAsync(currentScene);
     

    }
#

So i load my scene with the following code

#

And there is some code used to instantiate a bunch of blocks (Bounds Block game object), in a list called 'BoundsBlocks'

#

function for the block instantiation looks like this

private void InitBoundsBlocks()
    {

   
        int startY = (int)Math.Round(transform.position.y);

        for (int y = startY; y < startY +25; y++)
        {
            for (int x = (int)transform.position.x-1; x < transform.position.x +11; x++)
            {
                if (y == startY|| x == transform.position.x -1 || x == transform.position.x + 10)
                {
                   
                    GameObject bb = Instantiate(boundsBlock, new Vector3(x, y),Quaternion.identity);
                    print("bounds block active? : " + bb.name.ToString());
                    boundsBlocks.Add(bb);
                }
            }    
        }
    }
#

I've confirmed the bounds block code itself runs (that print after the instantiate runs for all 60 iterations as expected)

#

So after scene load, the list shows that it has 60 elements, but all references to the boundsblock game object are missing:

#

It almost seems like the instantiation is happening, but then the game objects are getting destroyed?

#

Too much info, or not enough?

clever pasture
#

I should also say, the print Shown in the InitBoundsBlock code shows the instance actuallly exists in the moment after instantiation, showing a name of "Bounds Block (clone)". So I'm scratching my head a bit here.

timber tide
#

All I could think of is the objects arent being tagged DontDestroyOnLoad but you're loading async (additive) so I'm not too sure

clever pasture
#

Does running instantiate in any of the Start or Update functions imply that they are being created after the load finishes regardless? I don't know myself

timber tide
#

I don't usually load additive so I'm not too sure but worth a shot at tagging em

clever pasture
#

Tagging them?

timber tide
clever pasture
#

MAybe it wasn't the help you thought you were giving, but you've fixed my problem lol

#

I hella simplified the scene change code so I wasn't doing the additive load stuff or async etc, and... it just works

# 
 public void ChangeScene()
    {
        if (SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex == 0 )
        {

            if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Return))
            {

                SceneManager.LoadScene("Game");
            }
        }

       
    }
#

Considering my use case (literally just making a tetris clone to get some practice in), this is probably more than fine

depends on how you want your game to feel. there is no "correct" answer

Instantiated objects get spawned in the active scene, so you're spawning the objects in your menu, then they get destroyed when you unload the menu scene

#

@clever pasture ☝️

sonic dome

#

again, there is no single answer to that. it entirely depends on the game. but using raycasts is typically called "hit scan" and actual instantiated bullets is "projectile" so look up your favorite games and see which of the two methods those games use

}`

this is a script to increase size of the button when touched , it does the work , is visibly larger , but it calls onPointerUp method when i drag my touch outside of the older smaller Size ,

For some reason after adding new stuff to a level of my game the spawn system suddenly stopped working.

slender nymph
#

check your code for StopCoroutine calls and put a log in that object's OnDisable method to make sure it isn't actually being disabled

golden canopy
slender nymph
#

and how was i supposed to know that? you've not even bothered sharing the full code for the class isn't working.

golden canopy
slender nymph
#

i see you haven't bothered trying my second suggestion

golden canopy
#

yeah cause i didn't see the logic in it if there was no StopCoroutine in the failing class

slender nymph
#

StopCoroutine has nothing to do with an object being disabled

#

so if you're just not going to follow troubleshooting instructions, i'm just not going to attempt to help you further

golden canopy
#

Look i have a brain the size of a peanut is this what you wanted me to do; this is what happens when i put an onDisable in the said script

wow crazy how i was right all along that the object is being disabled

yesterday i tried to split a script into two parts as it was getting too big, but this caused some problems; two line of code aren't working properly
the lines are spriteHeight = spriteRenderer.transform.localPosition.y; which just isn't doing it and Debug.Log((int)entityHeight); which is always inputting zero when that's just blatantly wrong. Both of these lines are in the new PlayerHieghtEntity script.
saying this again as i can't figure out the problem

I'm trying to render particles on a "render texture" and I want to make it transparent.

How can I make this texture transparent?
I want to change the alpha value but I can't find it.

image.png
#

This is how the render texture is with my camera set to alpha 255.
The other picture is how the render texture is with my camera set to alpha 0.
The material of the particles isnt transparent so it isnt rendering.

for some reason this isnt detecting the collision, i dont get anything back in the console and im completely stumped. I thought it was because the collider for the enemy tag doesnt actually touch the player, but when i set it to a trigger, nothing changed

public class EnemyCollision : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision)
    {
        if (collision.transform.tag == "enemy") // checks for collision with specific tag
        {
            Debug.Log("collision");
            HealthManager.health--; // calls health from other script
            if (HealthManager.health <= 0 ) // checks if health is 0 or less
            {
                // game over screen

            }
            else // player is not dead
            {
                StartCoroutine(GetHurt());
                HealthManager.health -= 1; // reducing health by 1
            }
        }
        IEnumerator GetHurt()
        {
            Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision(8, 9 , true); // ignoring collisions between 2 layers
            yield return new WaitForSeconds(3); // 3 second timer
            Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision(8, 9 , false); // stops ignoring collisions between 2 layers
        }
    }

also you should be using the CompareTag method rather than string equality when checking an object's tag

yeah i had a ; after the if statement

the rest of the warnings are not related to this code. you either have a compile error that broke some of your components or you renamed or moved a component without its meta file being updated too

is this the correct way to check a rotation has been met
hexed terrace
#

no, a rotation axis is a float, it's highly unlikely you'll ever get an exact match, when rotating between two rotations

naive lion
#

what would be the best approach to checking this via a float

#

to allow for a rounded reading

undone rampart
#

it depends on the context

naive lion
#

the player is rotating the cannon to a max (or "desired") rotation
upon reaching this rotation on the Z, they can shoot

#

mouse movement

#

the cannon will also lock in position

#

interactive cutscene ig

slender nymph
#

you almost never want to rely on the eulerAngles for logic. they are interpreted from the rotation quaternion at the time you read them and can be different from what you expect since the same rotation can be represented in a number of ways in euler angles

undone rampart
#

you can try having an invisible collider to where the cannon needs to point and shoot a raycast and lock the canon if it hits that collider

naive lion

#

does either object involved in the collision have more than one collider?

meager steeple
#

ah yes my player is a circle collider and a box collider

slender nymph
#

two colliders touching another collider == two OnCollisionEnter calls

meager steeple
#

yes i understand that, how do i make it so its only affected by the circle collider

slender nymph
#

either remove the other collider or put it on a layer that does not collide with the other object(s)

meager steeple
#

it looks like just by making the box collider smaller makes it playable

Hi!
Im following this tutorial:

https://catlikecoding.com/unity/tutorials/mesh-deformation/

I want the mesh to stay in the deformed shape.

At step 4.2, when a force is applied, the mesh starts to deform but I havent found a way to stop the deform without going back to the original shape. Even if I can slow it down it's still moving forever. The only way I made it work was by adding a return in the update but I feel like it might not be optimal (and also it didnt work that well)

I want to be able to deform the shape at runtime cause I'm trying to make a pottery game in VR for a game jam. The way I see it there would be tiny invisible spheres at the tip of the fingers which could deform the shape when theres a collision.

I'm sorry, I've tried to come up with my own answer but I feel like I don't even know where to start and everything I try seems futile because my understanding of the subject is limited.

If anyone could help me with this matter I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you so much! I'll add the code

Hello everyone. My normally running script gets deactivated for no reason. What would be the reason? I know that sometimes there is such a problem on the internet when code is written into the awake function, but when I write code from the awake function into the start function, it is not deactivated, but none of the lines of code work. How can I solve this problem? Thank you very much to everyone who has helped already.

Is there a way to modify this script for it to work?
Sure, by completely changing how it works.
I thought I could basically take the script for the enemy reset and just put it on something else and have it not move
But if you think about how your enemy works and how the "kill zone" needs to work, that doesn't make very much sense.

Here's an example you can learn about trigger colliders:

no

follow the example

Unity will call OnTriggerEnter for you

No idea where you got OnTriggerEnter.Invoke(); from

sand condor
#

Hey short question, lets say I have following code:

if(cheapComparison() || expensiveComparison())
{
// 
}

is it faster to write it this way:

if(cheapComparison()
{
  if(expensiveComparison()
  {
  //
  }
}

I guess the question I have is if the first case always computes both comparisons or if it skips the second one if the first one has a definitive answer.

buoyant knot
slender nymph
#

ah yeah, seems they are confusing the delegate's Invoke method with MonoBehaviour.Invoke which is used to call a method via reflection after a delay

buoyant knot
#

and, to be clear, you want to use MonoBehaviour.Invoke extremely rarely if at all

queen adder
#

using a tilemap

#

for the walls

buoyant knot
#

what is the problem?

wintry quarry
queen adder
#

does pixel perfect camara work with cinema camara

buoyant knot
#

also make sure you use a sprite atlas, and set compression settings properly for your sprites

slender nymph
#

you don't actually need the pixel perfect camera to fix that. sprite atlases for your sprites should do the trick on their own

buoyant knot
#

my game has a ton of pixel art, and no pixel perfect camera is needed

#

but sprite atlas is crucial

#

need atlas and proper compression settings, or else

queen adder
#

hi what is a atlas

buoyant knot
#

a sprite atlas is like one generated image file that maps out a ton of sprites

#

you can have like 1000 PNG files with various numbers of sprites

#

an atlas is basically one image file that condenses a bunch of them, and for some reason unity isn’t that smart at figuring it out without being explictly told

#

ask google how to set it up

swift crag
#

when the GPU draws a sprite, it needs to have a texture to read the pixel data from

#

the naïve approach would be to just upload hundreds and hundreds of tiny textures to the gpu

#

a few big textures are easier to deal with

queen adder
#

Do i list my existing tilemap for packing?

sprite atlas references image files (which have sprites). Unity’s inspector lets you define sprites also from those image files.
I forget how to rig it up, but something else in unity references the sprite atlas to render

#

ah i see, i have since fixed this problem anyway, thank you for your help tho, it turns out it was indeed import settings.

#

"generate mipmaps" seems to have caused me some problems

buoyant knot
#

also check build. Sprite atlas is not an optional thing when using sprites

#

it might not be the cause of this problem, but it will be important

#

so you might as well do it now

I've been seeing you bump this for quite a while but haven't offered anything because it looks like a pretty complicated setup but since no one's gotten to it I'm going to give it a once-over and see if I can find out what's going wrong

is there a way to get a certain gameobject inside of a gameobject array by its name?

# lost anvil ok thanks 👍

First thing I notice is this if statement:

if (inventory.Count > 1 && !isAnimating)

It makes sense to check for more than one item, but I think when you throw the first item away, it removes it from the list, meaning the count is down to 1 and this doesn't run. Maybe instead of removing it from the inventory, you can replace it with a temporary "Blank" object that you clear out when you change away from it

#

Or, just change the if, and add in a boolean for isNothingEquipped that checks if your hands are empty

if ((inventory.Count > 1 || (inventory.Count > 0 && isNothingEquipped)) && !isAnimating

i m using this so the player jumps in the direction where the camera is facing but its not wrking any help?

looks like the stacktrace doesnt show what called destroy on the object

polar acorn
# neon marlin

Aw dang it doesn't show it. I thought it did, maybe that's only for DestroyImmediate?

cosmic quail

maybe it shows it when it throws an error

For a component that has some attributes, how does one edit those in code with some custom script? Say I wanted to change some number value in a component in a script. How do i do that? I know its like the most basic thing but ive not done unity in forever. Ignore me if i clog up chat

use of uninitialize variable

#

just says null reference and the line

maybe there's a setting to show traces in more detail?

#

for min/max stuff i suggest you to use the first array element for "default value"
eg

int min=arr[0];
for(int i=1;i<arr.Length;++i){
  min=Mathf.Min(min,arr[i]);
}
#

then there is no uninitialized local variable

lost anvil

#

also array index count from 0 to Length-1

#

and you will get index out of bound

Can I ask a DOTween related question here?

#

MyScript.UnityEventThatPassesBool.AddListener(delegate { MyMethod(boolFromEvent) });
What's the syntax for accessing "boolFromEvent"?

rich adder
# lost anvil True

btw here for example

if (interactObj != null && interactObj.CompareTag("Inspectable"))
            {
                interactObj.GetComponent<IInspectable>()?.Inspect();
            }```
can be simply
```cs
if(interactObj == null) return;

if (interactObj.TryGetComponent(out IInspectable inspectable)
            {
                inspectable.Inspect();
            }

Also, that absolutely can be empty. What happens when there's nothing with that tag?

I could not find anything about how DOFillAmount is used i thought it was like this.

I'm trying to imitate a fake loading screen because the actual loading takes too little time to show my loading screen 😄

Hello, I'm currently trying Unity for the first time, to make a 2D platformer (i suck rn) and i got my guy to move and jump, but if i hold down jump he'll just fly off into spece, would anyone know how I can add a cap to the amount of times he can jump? (just once) here's the code so far: (it's C#)

using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField] private float speed;
private Rigidbody2D body;

private void Awake()
{
    body = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
}

private void Update()
{
    body.velocity = new Vector2(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * speed, body.velocity.y);

    if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Space))
        body.velocity = new Vector2(body.velocity.x, speed);
}

}

As a newbie should I be doing a regular 3d project or a 3D URP project?

rich adder
#

up to you

#

URP has more features

frosty river
#

I've been following tutorials. The first one didn't use URP but cut off part way through (they just stopped makings vids), found a more comprehensive tutorial but it's using URP

#

I suppose I'm going to upgrade my project to use URP so I can keep following

rich adder
#

it should not change anything particular how you code/make game

#

mainly the materials need to be converted

#

oh and it has its own Post Processing included so old package should be removed if present

so it doesnt read the variable from other script

boardInputHandler.SetMoveDone(true);

#

any idea why?

other script with exact same things reads normally
