It's just not.

burnt vapor
#

No, but you can expose the backing field using SerializeField and mutate that from the inspector

#

The only issue is that it will not trigger the getter/setter of the property that uses it

languid spire

ok, so you are a fan of

Vector3 pos = transform.position;
pos.y = 1f;
transform.position = pos;

because I am not

scenic maple
#

I'm a fan of

ref Vector3 pos = ref transform.position;
pos.y = 1f;

#

I think the average programmer is going to get confused by a value type that's suddenly working as a reference type

#

This kind of falls under being chaotic with your code simplification

stuck palm
#

is there any way an object can just will itself into existence without any code telling it to run? even in an empty scene my gamemanager object will show up and its kind of scary

using UnityEngine;

public abstract class SingletonPrefab<T> : MonoBehaviour where T : SingletonPrefab<T>

    private static T _instance;

    public static void CreateInstance()

        if (_instance == null)

#

this is the code for the singleton im using

#

its not an issue or anything, if anything its helpful cus i can just slap the event system on there and other ddol scripts i need

slender nymph
#

Now look at the getter for your Instance property

stuck palm
#

in an empty scene surely nothing is getting it right?

slender nymph
#

Something somewhere is accessing your GameManager.Instance

im trying to create a viking suffix name generator but it works different depending on the ending of a name. i wanted to ask, how would you go about checking the last few letters of a string in an efficient way?

#

i was originally thinking of just splitting it into characters and adding the last few together and comparing it, but that would be difficult since the endings of names are different lengths

#

or can you just use .Contains?

rich adder
rancid tinsel
#

that also solves the issue .Contains would have caused (names including the letter combinations at the start or in the middle)

rancid tinsel
#

im a bit confused by the syntax here - does nameEndings[ending] return the key or the value in a dictionary<string, string>

#

Value

scenic maple
#

You could prefer iterating over the dictionary as a whole

#

That way you don't need to index into it again

wintry quarry
#

Ideally one wouldn't iterate over a dictionary at all.

In this case the dictionary keys should probably be the suffixes if possible

#

Or if the suffixes aren't known ahead of time, a trie/prefix tree would be best here

rancid tinsel
#

so the way it works is essentially for each name ending, there is an appropriate suffix

    public void PlaySFX(AudioClip clip, bool randPitch=false)

        // Preprocess
        float deltaPitch = UnityEngine.Random.Range(-0.6f, 0.6f) * (randPitch? 1 : 0);
        SFXSource.pitch += deltaPitch;

        SFXSource.pitch -= deltaPitch;
    }

why am i not hearing the pitch variation?

keen dew
#

You set it immediately back to normal. It doesn't wait for the sound to finish playing

snow apex
#

gotcha

#

how would i implement that?

keen dew
#

A coroutine that checks if the sound is still playing every frame, for example. Or design the function so that you don't need to set it back, just always set it to the correct pitch before playing sounds

snow apex
keen dew
#

👍 but that will keep the random pitch even if you later call it with randPitch false

#

For some reason my animation is stuck in the jump state but the code looks fine...

#

I'm using floats for both Blendspaces and assigned them each to their respective blendspaces...

#

But it doesn't auto-update the number whenever I do the movement

#

Anyone know why the animation is always stuck on Jump...?

keen dew
#

The "else if" applies to the wrong if statement. Have the IDE format the code properly so that you see it better

normal turret
#

Nice, that fixed the fall animation part in the jumping

#

But for some reason my Horizontal Movement animations aren't playing at all, (Idle, Walk, and Run)

solemn summit
normal turret
#

Ok nice, that fixed it, thank you

#

So basically I can control parameters straight from Unity...

#

I just have to worry aobut the logic in the code

solemn summit
#

Yeah, you'll just have to add some checks (using raycasting) to see if the character is on the ground or not and set it in code. Then it should work nicely.

normal turret
#

Ok nice, nice, thank you, I appreciate you

I have both the Ground and Wall checkers based on some tutorials I watched, hopefully they work, I have to test them out

So been working on a game for a gamejam and tried using an fov effect
but it seems like the rotation is limited to the initial camera co-ordinates even when the camera moves away from 0,0,0
i have what i think is the likely offending line and a demonstration of the problem.

ive tried using different mousepos to co ordinate methods on the main cm but it doesnt help

im kinda at a loss witht this id really appreciate some help

Hey, im struggling with 2 Problems.

First One: Does anyone know, why the playersprite is micro-stutter while moving and has any fix idea for it?
The Second: Can i disable or whatever that the player can merge the Input Like W and A Key to go to Left and Top. I only want the movement to Top, Left, Right, Down.

I thanks in advance.

Code: ```public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField] private float walkSpeed = 5f;
[SerializeField] private float runSpeed = 5f;
[SerializeField] private SpriteRenderer spriteRenderer;
public Rigidbody2D rb;

private bool isRunning;


private Vector2 movementInput;

public void OnMove(InputValue value)
{
    movementInput = value.Get<Vector2>();
}

private void FixedUpdate()
{
    MovePlayer();
    FlipSprite();
}

private void MovePlayer()
{
    if (!Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift))
    {
        Vector3 move = new Vector3(movementInput.x, movementInput.y, 0) * walkSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
        rb.MovePosition(transform.position + move);
    }
    else if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift))
    {
        Vector3 move = new Vector3(movementInput.x, movementInput.y, 0) * runSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
        rb.MovePosition(transform.position + move);
    }
}

private void FlipSprite()
{
    // Flip the sprite based on the movement direction
    if (movementInput.x > 0)
    {
        spriteRenderer.flipX = false;
    }
    else if (movementInput.x < 0)
    {
        spriteRenderer.flipX = true;
    }
}

private void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D other)
{
    Debug.Log(other.gameObject.name);
}

}```

# tardy marlin So been working on a game for a gamejam and tried using an fov effect but it se...

Well, yes, it will be relative to (0, 0, 0) because you're reading the mouse position and translating it to world position so you're getting a position relative to the center of the world, which is (0, 0, 0), and then not doing anything else with it.
Make it relative to the playerTransform instead, i.e. Vector3 lookingDirection = (mousePos - playerTransform.position).normalized;
Then use that with rotZ and most likely fieldOfView.SetAimDirection(lookingDirection) too

tardy marlin
#

didnt even think about it like that

modest dust
# warm summit Hey, im struggling with 2 Problems. First One: Does anyone know, why the playe...

1st: It's either because of the camera following the player in Update() instead of LateUpdate() or Rigidbody2D interpolation being turned off
2nd: Of course, either change your code so that it doesn't use both the X and Y input within MovePlayer() or change the value of movementInput within OnMove() so that only one axis has a value. If you mean how to do it using the input system itself, then I don't know.

warm summit
#

@modest dust Yea, thats works fine. Thanks.

Do you happen to know how I manage to ensure that the vertical input is not preferred over the horizontal one? Everything is fine so far, but the thing is that if I hold down W and then press A or D, it continues to accelerate vertically, i.e. it goes up. However, if I hold down A or D and then press W or S, then it goes directly to the new input vertically.

@modest dust Okay, thanks. 🙂

i dont really know if this goes here but i need to copy code into a google doc, how do you do it? just copy pasting from vs looks bad

slender nymph
#

should probably check google's documentation to see if there is any code formatting available for it. but that's certainly not a unity question so it doesn't belong here.
also why would anyone want to share code in a google doc 😬

languid snow
#

i would choose anything over a google doc but i have to do it that way

#

mayb i can just link pastebins or sth

scenic maple
#

how do you expect to code without those?

#

you can always remove the file explorer entirely by right clicking its icon in the side bar

but then you... don't have a file explorer, so...

#

my inventory class has to communicate with my UI class to add items but i also need to do the opposite when UI buttons are pressed,
wouldnt this create circular dependency error or something. is that a thing in unity

#

how do ppl handle this type of stuff

wintry quarry
#

But also

#

As far as inventory communicating with the UI

#

It's best to reverse that dependency using the observer pattern

#

So only the UI will depend on the inventory, not the other way around

echo sand
#

i see, im assuming i add UI using player script then?

wintry quarry
#

Not sure what you mean by that

#

When I say observer pattern I mean basically the UI scripts have a reference to the inventory and subscribe to events on it.

#

Rather than the inventory having a reference to the UI

echo sand
#

oh i see, so inventory -> UI happens trough UnityEvents instead of using a reference?

wintry quarry
#

UnityEvent or C# events

snow apex
#

quick question, if i have a UI Manager object, that defines the UI logic (such as starting to play the game). and a Game Manager which defines the game logic (such as the actual sequence of starting up the game board, getting the players set up etc..), what is the best way to when clicking a button that the UI Manager is related to, to then execute the Game Manager Logic that is responsible for starting the game?

#

like i have this:

    // UIManager
    public void startPlaying()
    {
      // ??
      // ??
      // ...

    }

attached to the play button

and i have this:

    
    // GameManager
    // Setup Game
    void setupGame()
    {

      // Some Logic
      // Some Logic
      // ...


    }
#

i can make the setup game public and then get a reference to GameManager with a tag for instance, then execute it from within the startPlaying function, but is that a good solution?

lost maple
snow apex
#

dont i want to encapsulate the button logic to operate from UI manager though?

#

sounds like you're suggesting making a public function anyway in Game Manager

lost maple
snow apex
#

yeah i think i have the latter

#

its like 40-60 lines of code in the setup funciton

#

i just want to call it when the paly button is called

#

but is it valid to make setup function public?

#

shouldnt i use events?

lost maple
#

for now just do it i straightforward way and afterwards you anytime f will necessary can convert it in events

snow apex
#

are events more proper way?

lost maple
#

sometimes
but they re complicated and if you haven't necessary in them right now you can do it in simple way

#

ooooh okay

#

Thanks!

rich adder
#

but yeah I just shown example name you don't need that since you only need reference it seems lol
you almost never use gameobject names

livid jacinth
#

it was working fine until I decided to have random colors applied and then the spawn count didn't go up and I suddenly had hundreds of objects

rich adder
timber comet
rich adder
#

also this ^

timber comet
#

You are calling “this”, so you are getting everytime the sprite of the object that has attached your manager script

livid jacinth
#

I have it being called in update, it's just a stupid asteroids clone and it's spawning a new one when the count is less than 4

timber comet
rich adder
livid jacinth
#

I didn't have it as this originally, but the way I was doing it also wasn't working LUL

rich adder
#

doesn't seem you have any type of delay so its gonna spawn them all at once, not ideal

#

a loop is better if you want multiple ones spawned at once

timber comet
livid jacinth
# rich adder are you resetting the count back up ?

yeah I have the count going up when one is spawned but when I tried to add color to it, it was breaking because there wasn't a reference to the spawned asteroid so it never got to the part where it added 1 to the count

timber comet
timber comet
timber comet
rich adder
timber comet
#

Since your manager is probably an empty object, it cannot find any sprite renderer attached to it, and it is giving you an error

livid jacinth
#

I wasn't trying this, I was trying
objectColor = objects[randomObject].GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();

#

instead of this

timber comet
livid jacinth
#

but I'm realizing it was just getting the color of the prefab, not the one that was spawned

rich adder
timber comet
livid jacinth
#

I just wasn't sure if this.GetComponent was going to do it or if I was going to go down the wrong rabbithole

rich adder
#

this is always referencing the script you're in

livid jacinth
# 
    {
        if (asteroidCount < 4)
        {
            SpawnAsteroid();
        }
    }```
rich adder
#

you 99% of the time don't need to use this

rich adder
livid jacinth
#

yeah

#

if at any point it goes under 4, a new one is made

rich adder
#

gotcha

#

thought you waited on 0

livid jacinth
#

and it wasn't getting the referrence to the spawned one so the script broke and never added to the counter and as soon as I hit play I got hundreds of them lmao

timber comet
#

Yeah, its because you are not counting when one of them is no longer there

rich adder
#

how are you counting them up?

timber comet
livid jacinth
#

No, I have it decrease when one is destroyed

timber comet
#

I highly suggest you to do a Debug.Log(asteroidcount);

rich adder
#

the issue would be if its not being added to list so anything less than 4 and keep spawning

livid jacinth
#

I have it working perfectly fine here

timber comet
livid jacinth
#

I just wanted to add colors

rich adder
livid jacinth
#

I did the debug, it was telling me I didn't have a reference and that's why i just needed to learn how to get that

livid jacinth
timber comet
#

so, do this:
Var myinstance = Instantiate(…);
SpriteRenderer spr = myinstance.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();

livid jacinth
#

perfect, let me give that a go

rich adder
timber comet
#

And then check if it still gives you an error, and keep a debug.log of that int

livid jacinth
rich adder
#

or just make some of them as shooters of projectiles and its just firepoint from butthole lol

steep rose
slender nymph
steep rose
#

what have I been doing

timber comet
rich adder
#

yes cause its cloning prefab as sprite renderer

steep rose
#

neat, good to know

livid jacinth
#

I'm not sure I follow, like instead of having an array of GameObjects make it an array of SpriteRenderer?

rich adder
#

thought I prefer using another script that runs its own Custom / Setup methods targetting specific components
(ofc use cases for this is more complex than 1 component)
eg

MyScript theScript = Instantiate(etc..
theScript .SetText("Somethinng")
theScript .DoMoreStuff();
instead of
MyScript theScript = Instantiate(etc..
theScript.GetComponent<TMP_Text>().text = "Something";```
timber comet
steep rose
livid jacinth
#

yeah I do need to access some other parts, but it's good to know I can do that if i need to access ONLY that

timber comet
#

If you only need the sprite render then make a SpriteRenderer array, if you need something else from the spawning objects you better save that as a GameObject array

livid jacinth
slender nymph
timber comet
#

So quick question, is unity learn a good place to learn coding patterns?

rich adder
timber comet
rich adder
timber comet
livid jacinth
#

it's still giving me troubles, I've got this just to see if I could get it to work:

                Debug.Log("New ass made");
                buttColor = newAss.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();
                Debug.Log("got new ass component");
                randomColor = Random.Range(0, 2);
                Debug.Log("got random color");
                buttColor.color = assteroidsColors[randomColor];
                Debug.Log("Applied color");
                assteroidCount += 1;```
rich adder
livid jacinth
#

and it's causing a reference error on the "buttColor.color = assteroidsColors[randomColor];" line

rich adder
#

btw whenevr you random range an array is always best to use not magic numbers
use the length of array

rich adder
#

or assteroidsColors is null

#

raher than doing such useless Debugs, use them to debug the components etc

livid jacinth
#

I had them in there just to see at what point it was breaking

rich adder
#

Debug.Log($"did we get buttColor ? {buttColor != null}");

rich adder
timber comet
livid jacinth
#

did we get buttColor ? True

timber comet
livid jacinth
#

so it's likely something with the assteroidsColors array

rich adder
livid jacinth
#

I did, then I appended the 3 colors in the start function

#

Could this be caused by using color32 instead of just color?

rich adder
#

no they have implicit conversion

rich adder
eternal falconBOT
livid jacinth
#

ok it's definitely something with the array, I tried to just do buttColor.color = color.green; and it was perfect

timber comet
rich adder
livid jacinth
livid jacinth
rich adder
#

yeah its not initialized

#

never used .append but ig it doesn't throw on a null array?

#

also why .append lol

livid jacinth
#

well color me stupid, I thought private Color32[] assteroidsColors; was doing that lmao

rich adder
#

nah only if you put [SerializeField] then unity Would do that for you since it shows in the inspector

#

unity has to initialize it in order for array / list to show in inspector

livid jacinth
rich adder
#

public or [serializefield]

#

much easier you do this in the inspector anyway

#

assign them with the color wheel and done.

livid jacinth
#

I didn't even consider doing it in the inspector honestly, thanks!

Mornin all, Having a strange issue and was wondering if anyone could see the mistake?

I'm adjusting my 'fuelConsumptionPerSecond' based on key input. Now, the weird thing is that the left and right strafe works as expected, but the forward and back doesn't, and I'm at a bit of a loss as to why.

void ControlInput()
{
    // Forward and Back movement Input
    if (Input.GetKey(GameManager.Instance.controlsManager.forwardKey))
    {
        moveZ = Mathf.MoveTowards(moveZ, 1, lerpSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        playerStatsController.SetFuelConsumption(1f);
    }
    else if (Input.GetKey(GameManager.Instance.controlsManager.backwardKey))
    {
        moveZ = Mathf.MoveTowards(moveZ, -1, lerpSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        playerStatsController.SetFuelConsumption(1f);
    }
    else
    {
        moveZ = Mathf.MoveTowards(moveZ, 0, lerpSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        playerStatsController.SetFuelConsumption(0f);
    }

    // Strafe Left and Right movement Input
    if (Input.GetKey(GameManager.Instance.controlsManager.leftKey))
    {
        moveX = Mathf.MoveTowards(moveX, -1, lerpSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        playerStatsController.SetFuelConsumption(1f);
    }
    else if (Input.GetKey(GameManager.Instance.controlsManager.rightKey))
    {
        moveX = Mathf.MoveTowards(moveX, 1, lerpSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        playerStatsController.SetFuelConsumption(1f);
    }
    else
    {
        moveX = Mathf.MoveTowards(moveX, 0, lerpSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        playerStatsController.SetFuelConsumption(0f);
    }
}
#

The forward and back always returns 0.

spare mountain
wintry quarry
ruby python
wintry quarry
#

so - ultimately, only the second set matters

#

because it overwrites the first set

spare mountain
#

true, your left and right "else" statement runs after you set fuel consumption to 1 in the forward and backward if statement

ruby python
wintry quarry
charred spoke
#

Just do a seperate check after setting moveX and moveZ to check if any of them are !=0 and set fuel consumption accordingly

wintry quarry
#

this could all ultimately be simplified using a vector2 though

ruby python
#

I think I could do a simple Rigidbody velocity check too?

wintry quarry
#

you could but that doesn't seem like it makes sense for this code

#

the code is checking if you are applying thrust

#

not if your velocity is a certain thing

#

as in "are my engines on?"

charred spoke
#

Depends on what you want fuel consumption tied to

wintry quarry
#

After you turn your engines off, typically you are still moving.

#

but not consuming fuel

ruby python
#

Oh yeah, I was just thinking out loud regarding the different ways of performing that check if that makes sense?

charred spoke
#

What happens if an external source bumps your rigidbody ? Would that be considered fuel usage ?

ruby python
#

Ah yeah, that's a fair point.

#

But yeah, the consumption is tied to when the keys are pressed (when the thrusters are active), so I think just checking if moveZ and moveX = 0 should do it?

wintry quarry
#

yes

ruby python
#

Cool. Thank you guys 🙂

untold coyote
#

More context please

#

Actually it sounds right to deactivate them to switch

#

Let me experiment a little. I'll see if I find anything or not

#

Okay I found that if you hold the reference before deactivating it works

#

Just hold a reference to all of your UI elements in Start and then disable and enable them all you want @snow apex

snow apex
#

how

untold coyote
#

However you want

#

Make them public or write [SerializeField] if you want them private

#

Or you can get them by their tag or layer or name whatever

#

It's up to you

#

Example:

public GameObject yourObject; // set from inspector

void Start() {
  yourObject.SetActive(false);
}

void Update() {
  if (/*Under your desired condition*/) {
    yourObject.SetActive(true);
  }
}
snow apex
#

ure activating and deactivating

untold coyote
#

Yeah but it works

#

You said it doesn't right?

#

You said you can't hold the reference

snow apex
#

my only issue is then how do i get a reference to an inactive object

untold coyote
#

The reference is that yourObject

swift elbow
#

i havent found a cleaner way

#

yet

untold coyote
#

Ah hell naw I don't like singletons

snow apex
untold coyote
#

But yeah I guess you can do that

swift elbow
untold coyote
#

You can also find them by tag or whatever

untold coyote
swift elbow
untold coyote
#

Wdym

#

You totally can

#

Before deactivating of course

swift elbow
#

i might be mistaken but i dont remember you being able to use that on inactive objects

swift elbow

#

well how do i find them if they are disabled lol

how do i fix my UI transform changing values when i parent it via code

GameObject _ItemUI = Instantiate(ItemUI);
_ItemUI.transform.parent = SelectedSlot.transform;
image.png
#

these are the normal values

image.png
verbal dome
#

Is it an issue?

#

The values are relative to its parent

#

You can modify recttransform.anchoredposition etc if you need to

echo sand
#

i set up the prefab so it stretches to match the parent, but they just change values for some reason when i do it trough code

snow apex
#

i have a button that references a function for its click functionality from an object called UIManager (First image). that object becomes scene persistant:

    void Awake()
    {
        // Implement Singleton pattern
        if (instance == null)
        {
            instance = this;
            DontDestroyOnLoad(this.gameObject); // Make Persistent <-----------------------------
        }
        else
        {
            Destroy(gameObject); // Destroy duplicate
        }
    }

the issue is that it leads to the Function to go missing for the button! (Second Image)

how do i solve this issue?

looks like you will need a script to set the OnClick event rather than using the inspector

i declare a public int with -1 default value but on Awake check its value becomes 0.
after checking, i didnt find anything that changes its value. i tried adding another public int field that has -2 value and it fix the problem

#

so im supposed to just leave this useless 2nd field ?

languid spire
#

did you look in the inspector, that value takes precedence

burnt vapor
#

If you want to optimize this, I suggest you get the component once and use the reference. Right now you call it twice

#

Maybe Cities can be a list of CityManager, even

i dont know what to show. its 2 public int field declaration with debug on start and awake

yes it shows the name of the field, with value beside it as i mentioned. sec let me restart

slender nymph
#

are you looking at its value outside of play mode? because the value you see in the inspector there will be the one assigned before Awake is run

languid spire
worthy veldt
#

this is with 2nd value uncommented, and the check goes thorugh

#

to SaveFloorItemData(this)

#

so what i have to solve is, what changes its value. you already helped me as i thought it would be -1 in inspectors 2nd case

languid spire
#

do you not understand what the word precedence means?

worthy veldt
#

take priority ?

languid spire
#

yes, so what do you not understand here?

worthy veldt
#

but my check on start goes through so that is what i need, even though it shows 0 on inspector

languid spire
#

well show the console then to prove that, we cannot see your screen

worthy veldt
#

i put the console in hierarchy in the photo, this is actually me trying to do saving with data binding, so its very possible i f.up some order cause so many things happen in multiple objects awake and start. its fine your very first reply already helped

How to move the following gameObject in the direction of something? Like I have a vector2 direction, I want this object to move, but depending upon where the direction says it to move. Like left, right or up and down.

    {
        
        // Time taken to move one piece to the next position
        float moveDuration = 1f;
        float elapsedTime = 0f;

       
        GameObject last = assemblyLine[assemblyLine.Count - 1];

      
        Vector3 startPosition = last.transform.position;
        Quaternion startRotation = last.transform.rotation;

        
        Vector3 targetPosition = assemblyLine[0].transform.position;
        Quaternion targetRotation = assemblyLine[0].transform.rotation;

        assemblyLine.RemoveAt(assemblyLine.Count - 1);
        assemblyLine.Insert(0, last);

        while (elapsedTime < moveDuration)
        {
          
            elapsedTime += Time.deltaTime;

            
            last.transform.position = Vector2.Lerp(startPosition, targetPosition, elapsedTime / moveDuration);
            last.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Lerp(startRotation, targetRotation, elapsedTime / moveDuration);

            yield return null; 
        }
      
    }```
# 
            last.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Lerp(startRotation, targetRotation, elapsedTime / moveDuration);```

This is the line where im moving it, I want it to follow a direction as well

#

It's very unclear what you mean here. Change the target position to what you want. An object can only move in one direction at a time.

Make the target position on the right untill it reaches that point, then change it to be on the left

I have a problem, because I don't have a problem.
I made this script 3 years ago and I don't remember how it actually work.

I mean I understand the code inside but I don't know how it is even able to communicate with Unity if I press the "ESC" Button on my keyboard, how it this script even able to register it, if it doesn't even have a Update Function?

It does only have those public void xxx() stuff but the Keyboard ESC is a keyboard button that can not be called like if you press an UI Button or something, so how is this script even able to work because I tried to understand it now for 2 hours but I don't know how it is even able?

Because if I out comment everything in this script, opening the ESC Menu will stop working, so it must be this script.
https://paste.ofcode.org/GR3k837BeSBzrsqH7PixFS

I also have a script inside that does get called by an UI button but this is another story that I am able to understand, only the part, how it is able to get called of a ESC Keyboard Input does confuses me.

# rich adder whats wrong with it exactly ?

This code was one of my first scripts I wrote, 3 years ago.
Back then it seems I used a different method to get new input system inputs without the need of a Update event.
Today I use update because its easy to read and the performance factor doesn't seems to be influenced by it.

I want to rework it, but how can "public void Meine_ESC_Funktion()" even work, if its a Keyboard button that does access this event? I mean if it would be a UI button, you have Button "On Click ()" in the Inspector but this does not exist if you want to access something by a Keyboard key like [ESC].

But if I press ESC, this function does get called and I don't can remember how I have done it 3 years ago, how is this even possible?

normal blade
#

The character and the floor have to meet, but it's floating. What's the problem?

rich adder
rich adder
#

so I can only comment on that
it requires no polling, all you do is call the event that matches the action name with the On prefix.
such as
OnMove(InputValue value)
//gets called when Move keys are pressed in Action Map

How would you exactly code the Manhattan distance in unity? is it a formula I must know? right now I have a 2D grid and you can't use Euclidean distance but you would need to use Manhattan distance, using it for A*.

keen dew
#

Manhattan distance is just abs(x1 - x2) + abs(y1 - y2)

steep rose
#

thats it?

keen dew
#

yup

steep rose
#

what would you put x1, x2 as? is it a place on the grid

such as left, right, up, down?

Those are the x and y coordinates of the end points

Heya. Trying to Write something on my UI. Is there a way to access the text fields without declaring each one of it as public variable in my script?

spring skiff
# rich adder awesome! yeah that loooks way too messy for me

I just wonder why I made it like that instead of using
bool _RightButtonPressed = _controls.Player.Inventory_Hotbar_RightButtons.WasPressedThisFrame();
Inside of an Update?

Does it make a performance different?
If not, I would go with the Update event, if yes, I would go with the Unity Invokes.

rich adder
#

if the system is there to use events/ messages its much better to do so

#

Update is not exactly a free operation

#

only caring/reacting when something happens is way more performant in the long run

If you're not keeping track of the enemies yourself, then what you can use is FindGameObjectsWithTag("Enemy"), which returns an array of all objects with that tag. Then check the array's Length

rich adder

round mirage

how can i give to my array the reference of my waypoints ?

#

Instantiate returns you that object, from there you can modify any component including the Enemy script

#

eg
var enemyInstance = Instantiate(etc.. enemyInstance.GetComponent<Enemy>().Waypoints = Waypoints

#

even better spawn it as Enemy skip the get component, same idea though

#

idk your exact behavior use case, like you want specific paths / orders make each one a different order of the same points so you have an array of array of points

#

eg


[Serializeable]
public class WaypointsPaths{
public Transform[] Waypoints;
}```
```cs
[SerializeField] private WaypointsPaths[] waypointPaths;
enemy.waypoints = waypointPaths[index].Waypoints;
index++;``` @round mirage

Hey guys, I have a problem in my flappy bird game (left). Right now I am trying to implement the player sprite rotating downward when falling and upwards when I jump as seen in the right gif. As you can see in my game, when jumping repeatedly the bird doesn't stay facing upwards, it does a piddle-paddle motion instead. Here is my code: https://hatebin.com/hegfjecnyl

problem.gif target.gif
keen dew
#

In the other gif the bird rotates downwards when it's falling faster than a certain speed, not when it's not jumping. Also the code does slerps incorrectly

cobalt hinge
#

hmm, thats a good observation. how does the code do slerps incorreclty though

keen dew
#

Slerp is (original rotation, target rotation, time elapsed / total rotation time). Yours is (current rotation, target rotation, speed * deltatime)

#

Quaternion.RotateTowards would be more appropriate

if you cannot get vs code configured following the easy instructions provided, then consider switching to visual studio

it also generally helps to read messages that your tools give you. like the one that you probably ignored in vs code that said to install the .net sdk

yes, that package has been deprecated for 2 and a half years now. but if you'd look at the current configuration steps, you'd see that a different package is used now

slender nymph

the package wasn't actually marked as deprecated in the unity editor until the earlier 2023 versions (which unity 6 is an update from). but it hasn't been maintained in more than 2 years and for a while support was being completely dropped for it, but microsoft is now supporting the unity extension

How does O in SOLID work with mod support in games? I'm not sure I'm understanding it right because the two ideas seem to clash

#

I know it's not directly scripting related but wasn't sure where else to ask

teal viper
rancid tinsel
teal viper
#

It means that you design your code in such a way that you can build on it by extending existing classes, rather than modifying them.

#

I say classes, but it's not limited to them. It might mean using/implementing interfaces as well.

rancid tinsel
#

I don't understand - is extending classes not modifying them? Maybe if you have an example that could help me understand.

teal viper
rancid tinsel
#

What about if you're reading the skill names from a text file for instance? You're technically not changing the code by changing the string in the file.

#

I'm asking since SOLID was mentioned to me in regards to reading from a text file that users can modify.

what you want is just basic true or false

#

is the key difference between inheritance and polymorphism that poly is method overriding rather than inheriting?

#

im still struggling to remember the distinction

broken cargo
hollow slate
#

using Unity's input system (Unity 6) I have this snippet that controls the camera:

private void Update()
    {
        UpdateFollowPos();

        Vector2 currentInput = sensitivity * look.action.ReadValue<Vector2>();
        AdjustRotation(currentInput);

        OrbitAdjustPosition(allowOcclusion);
    }

The sensitivity is just a float, and no framerate-dependent thing is being done to values.
Now the strange thing is that the sensitivity does seem to ignore framerate for mouse-delta values, but not for my controller. If my framerate is too low, my controller becomes very sluggish. Any ideas for how to fix this so that controller becomes framerate-independent, without changing any mouse-movement?

#

simply multiplying by Time.deltaTime would not be a solution, as it's (to my knowledge) already being done behind the scenes with the new input system.

slender nymph
#

you need to multiply by deltaTime when using a controller but not when using a mouse. so you need to check the current input device

broken cargo
hollow slate
#

aha, I see. So values from the mouse are accounted for, while the controller just outputs analog 1 to 0. That makes a lot of sense for the behaviour I'm seeing. Thanks y'all.

do me a favr add two new print statements displaying the value of facing direction and wall jump force after the line where you pared in the new vector2 values into the rigidbody velocity

then send a picture of your console log

Velocity shouldn't go to zero unless you've got friction or some force being applied to your character.

#

If anything, I'm assuming you're setting the x directional velocity relative input somewhere and it's interrupting your x directional physics in the air.

            return;

        if(isWallJumping)
            return;

    }

maybe it's from the handle movement function

#

but when I remove the return code he doesn't apply the force on x-axis

ivory bobcat
#

A solution would be to change how input affects your character while jumping/in-the-air. Where you'd add to velocity rather than set velocity while in the air.

cosmic charm
ivory bobcat
# 
if (in the air) 
    velocity += direction * scalar * speed
else
    velocity = direction * speed```
#

You may want to clamp the value after adding to velocity if it isn't meant to be too large. The above snippet is simply pseudo code and instead your code should be addressing the x component of velocity.

Hello guys I need help
So I am learing to make a 2D platformer and I have successfully created a character move and jump
and I also have a moving platform. So I want the player to jump on platform and move along with the platform.
I tried watching youtube videos but when I tested it the player get stuck on the platform and run slow on the moving platform.
The player uses linearVelocity to move whereas the platform uses Tranform component for moving (maybe that's the problem)
If anyone can help me then do help plz

how so? the player's velocity allows them to move relative to the platform, and the platform's movement (which the player's movement follows since it's parented) allows the whole system to move relative to the world position

The physics system has very strong opinions about where the Rigidbody should be and if it's not actually there all of its math gets wonky. You could call Physics.SyncTransforms() at the end of every frame in which a platform moves the player, but that's a moderately expensive operation and might affect performance. Still, if you want to do it, you should profile it and see how much it affects things before deciding on it

the platform moving is just like applying an additional velocity, they're not overwriting each other, they're adding to each other

It is, admittedly an edge case, but it depends on a lot of factors like the actual velocities, the framerate, what you're trying to do with the physics system, but it can lead to things like eaten inputs or incorrect jump angles and other quirks like that. In casual play, it might not be noticed, but if it does cause problems it'll be very annoying to diagnose (and speedrunners of the future will curse you forever)

if what you said was true, there would not be a problem mixing transform and rigidbody movement on one gameobject, I'm sure you've tried it and found out it does not work

Theres are lots of easy ways to produce weird results with this setup. In your video it looks like almost only moving platforms so yea its not like much could even go wrong.
Since you're directly moving the transform, your object does not respect physics during this move. If you ever have a section where an object is in the way of the player, the platform will move them into it or through it if its small.

Hi all, I'm looking for a bit of advice please. (Sorry if this ends up being long)

The game is based in an asteroid belt around a planet. I have the spawning system all working the way I need it to (spawn in 'chunk' objects, create lists of Asteroid positions/rotations/scales, the chunks then grab asteroids from an object pool and apply the data from these lists when they're activated (Distance to player). It all works fantastically, I have an absolutely massive Asteroid Belt and performance is excellent.

Here is the script that creates the lists and deals with the grabbing asteroids from the pool etc. when the chunk is activated (This script lives on the Chunks).

https://hastebin.com/share/ahodunaxoc.csharp

My question is, I need to add more data into the Asteroids (They each have an Asteroid Controller script on them along with a scriptable object (Randomly selected at runtime to deal with what type of 'ore' the asteroid holds), for things like Amount of ore, Asteroid health etc. for the mining system.

Would the best way to deal with adding this extra data be creating an Asteroid Class and instead of creating the 3 seperate lists mentioned above, have all of that in the class, and then in the 'Generate Chunks' method create a list of Asteroid Classes?

Hastebin

Hastebin is a free web-based pastebin service for storing and sharing text and code snippets with anyone. Get started now.

rocky canyon
#

why not have a list of scriptable objects.. then just assign one to each asteroid as u create them.

#

asteroid.data.oreType
asteroid.data.health
asteroid.data.resourceAmount

#

same variable to call on all asteroids, each having different scriptable objects/ therefor different data

ruby python
#

Mainly Because the asteroids are dynamically created, they'll never be same on each run. And if I understand correctly, I would need to create a scriptable object for every single possible permutation of said variables?

Can anyone explain to me why i cant create a script in the hierarchy anymore? did they remove that in unity 6 or am i going mental? Ive made sure visual studio 22 is set to my external scripting program

the thing you code in

rocky canyon
#

ur coding program

#

u can also set up templates to use.. so when u create a script its only what uw ant

terse oar
#

aha, gah i shouldent have updated to VS22 :p

steep rose
#

VS2019 superior

terse oar
#

ok so nowdays u screate a script in ur asset, and then drag it to your hierarchy?

polar acorn
#

It's just called something different in the menu now

terse oar
#

aight thanks, why this thing even became a problem for me is because the code Application.Quit() isent reicognized, thought it had something to do with the other thing

ruby python
# rocky canyon u can have an Enum for each type of ore..

I already have Scriptable objects controlling the types of ore (name/ore colour etc. etc.) It's more the 'dynamicness' of the asteroids (because they get put back into a Pool any data grabbed from a Scriptable object (ie, amount of Ore based on the size of the asteroid which is dynamically set wouldn't be stored. Not sure if I'm making any sense tbh. lol.)

ye im trying to code a game menu :p

#

and Application.Quit() remained black and isent popping up in the popup thingie where it suggests stuff

steep rose
ruby python
#

Yeah, Scripts are Components, and components have to live on something (GameObject)

terse oar
#

ah ye ofc, i dident mean i was trying to create one in the hierarchy, i meant rightclckjing a gameobject in the hierarchy

steep rose
#

I don't think you can do that, unless that's possible. you would make it via inspector and project window/asset window

like for my game menu i created an empty parent and placed my buttons and stuff in there, and now i wanted to rightclick the empty parent and create a script, coulda sworn ive done that before :p

SceneManager.Loadscene

also not found and remain black

ruby python
#

Maybe a silly question, but have you set up the event handler on your button correctly and got it pointing to your public void that contains the Application.Quit() ?

IT WORKS

rocky canyon

soooo many templates

im not sure what i did but now it works :p

rocky canyon

#

oh is that a list of different templates on what you need to script? sounds nifty

rocky canyon
#

its Unity

#

its how u change ur template scripts

terse oar
#

i always assumed unity realized that depending on what gameobject u rightclicked and added script too

rocky canyon
#

when u create a new one.. could make it this for example

Hey does someone know why Visual Studio is not autocompleting the codes Im wrting in C#?

rocky canyon
#

u need to cap the velocity somehow..

stone pilot
# 
{
    leftLegRB.AddForce(Vector2.right * (speed * 1000) * Time.deltaTime);
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(seconds);
    rightLegRB.AddForce(Vector2.right * (speed * 1000) * Time.deltaTime);
}

IEnumerator MoveLeft(float seconds)
{
    rightLegRB.AddForce(Vector2.left * (speed * 1000) * Time.deltaTime);
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(seconds);
    leftLegRB.AddForce(Vector2.left * (speed * 1000) * Time.deltaTime);
}```

if (isOnGround && Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
{
    pr.Play();
    rb.AddForce(Vector2.up * jumpForce);
}```
slender nymph
#

incredible. every single AddForce call you have is wrong

rocky canyon
#

lol

terse oar
#

ouch addforce!

stone pilot
#

But how can I fix ?

terse oar
#

hahaha, my life :p

slender nymph
rocky canyon
#

you need to either control the velocity directly.. or cap ur velocity.. (maybe check if it hasnt reached a threshold before u apply more forces)

slender nymph
#

but yes, clamp the magnitude of your velocity after adding force to ensure it does not go above your desired speed

stone pilot
slender nymph
#

well that's not all. you need to remove the * 1000 as well since that was literally just compensation for the deltaTime multiplication

#

then you'll of course need to adjust the values of the variables you use so that they work correctly

stone pilot
#

Alright thx

velvet mulch
#

is this looking good @rocky canyon

not sure what ur asking.. but in the newer versions of unity yes, Visual Studio Editor is the correct plugin

Library\PackageCache\com.unity.ide.visualstudio@2.0.18\Editor\VisualStudioIntegration.cs(28,18): error CS0246: The type or namespace name ‘Messager’ could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I have tried everything, from reinstalling visual studio, unity, even looked on page 2 of google yet nothing worked. I have tried importing an older version of the package from a different project, yet it still cannot find the required file. This bug leads to visual studio 2022 being unusable because it is like notepad

oh yeah sorry

the newest 2.0.22 version

#

ive tried like 10 different versions

from different projects

Can someone help me please? Why is my raycast too small?

#

And it is not working

slender nymph
# fast tendon the newest 2.0.22 version

then close unity, delete the PackageCache folder from inside the Library folder in your project and launch it again because it clearly shows the error is coming from 2.0.18 not 2.0.22 which is the actual latest

fast tendon
#

i have tried that with the latest 2.0.22 version as well

#

but ive tried it iwth this 2.0.18

#

same error

slender nymph
#

you need to be actually on the latest version

fast tendon
#

i guess one more try wont hurt

slender nymph
velvet mulch
#

Im in the editor

slender nymph
#

obviously you can skip the "install the editor" and "install visual studio" parts since they are already installed.

velvet mulch
#

no look

slender nymph
#

yes, you will see the "Install Editor" button on the Installs section of the unity hub because that is where you manage your editor installations
