Will it always be the Sprite Parent

[lime ridge]

yes bro, this is 2 wheel game, and this is the first wheel and the wheel got 8 sections, i want to do when this section called (PremioIT) (SpriteParent) etc.. be the win/reward do some transition to appear other button saying "Next Wheel"

[upper thicket]

Hm, that's still a bit unclear. Try shorter sentences.

How do you choose which item should be the prize? @lime ridge

[lime ridge]

The prize is with percentage xD

And i want when te prize was prem

that is prize win

It shows an effect and go to the second wheel

[upper thicket]

post the full script which selects the prize

https://gdl.space

[lime ridge]

https://gdl.space/evabegaqav.cs

its all this code bro

[upper thicket]

Alright. I've skimmed through it.
I need a better definition of your initial question:

can i associate when the result of this wheel be this Sprite to appear one button??

Try to explain in multiple short sentences.

@lime ridge

[lime ridge]

here u got an very fast vid bro

i think you're going to understand better

its uploading wait please

[upper thicket]

As far as I have gathered, this should happen:

1. Wheel spins
2. Prize is selected
3. User gets prize
4. Next wheel spins

(Not from reading the code, but a general idea of what is happening)

[lime ridge]

yes is this idea

if user gets prize next wheel spin

if not

same wheel spin again

[upper thicket]

Yes. Which part are you having issues with?

[lime ridge]

when the user get the prize

dont skip to the second wheel

in the vid im starting by the end

and its everything ok

its just 1 spin on this wheel and go back to the first wheel again

[upper thicket]

Okay, so when the wheel is done spinning, and the prize is presented,
you want a new wheel to pop up, after the user clicks to collect the prize? @lime ridge

[lime ridge]

Yes

After he clicks to collect go to the first wheel on the vid that is supposed to be the last

but just when the prize that user gets on first wheel was the 50$

[upper thicket]

Is this the game's main scene, or is it loaded from a menu?

[lime ridge]

What

main scene was this

[upper thicket]

My first thought is that this wheel should be something you can invoke by a function.
If you have that, you can easily invoke it again, and even add parameters, such as conditions.

[upper thicket]

I'm just not sure if I can figure this out on my own. The code base is somewhat large 😅

[lime ridge]

The wheel

is invoked

when i click on the button

[upper thicket]

Great!

[lime ridge]

and he makes this

Claim the reward that is on "reward scene" after spin the wheel and turn on Active every this GameObject's

Button Spin, Wheel, wheel arrow etc

[upper thicket]

Alright, so you could encapsulate all of this into a single function, though I'm not sure that's necessary.

If you do, that means you can invoke what the button does right now, by code, without actually clicking the button

I think that makes sense since you want to reuse this functionality at different points in the game

[lime ridge]

Hm and how can i do that

certainly

I tried to make this

Make this script get what the prize had got on the first wheel and by this or show the Claim Or ClaimCG

but something is not good here

[upper thicket]

In stead of using GameObject.SetActive directly from the OnClick
you make a function which does all of that in a single execution.
Then, you add that function to the button's OnClick, and you can use the function from other places.

[lime ridge]

this can not solve?

The script im using is this

i would need to change the action == 0

for prem

or noprem

not?

And the script knows what prize did the user get and if get the prize allows the button ClaimCG if not shows the button Claim

[keen estuary]

whoa...

[lime ridge]

hi spawn

[keen estuary]

hello real

is this a new issue?

[lime ridge]

no its the same

maybe better talk on the other topic no?

[upper thicket]

Code - https://gdl.space/evabegaqav.cs
Video - #1084493284543565915 message (fixed)

[keen estuary]

ahh, gotcha

[lime ridge]

im too close i think spawn

can u help?

[upper thicket]

wrong video link lol

[keen estuary]

i'll try

[lime ridge]

Steve sent's this script

[keen estuary]

and u just copy and pasted it?

[lime ridge]

And i associate him to a new button

[lime ridge]

yes

[keen estuary]

why is the script named 1?

[lime ridge]

wtf

[keen estuary]

and u cant just put the script in there

[lime ridge]

wait

[keen estuary]

it has to be a gameobject thats containing that script

[lime ridge]

He is called OnButtonClick

[keen estuary]

yea but irregardless

this can't be that

[lime ridge]

Whuut

[keen estuary]

u just dropped the script in there

[lime ridge]

So where did i need to put it?

[keen estuary]

just put it on a gameobject somewhere in ur scene

something that makes sense

[lime ridge]

On the Wheel?

[upper thicket]

an empty game object (for the script to run)

it will be invisible. place it anywhere

[lime ridge]

already did it

can i change the name of gameobject too?

[upper thicket]

Hmm, there should be two arrays there

did you Save the script?

[lime ridge]

yes i save

[upper thicket]

Show the script

[lime ridge]

already got

[upper thicket]

ok good

[lime ridge]

did it

[upper thicket]

So we'll need to modify the example a bit

The example shows how you can Activate or Deactivate gameObjects in an array

You want to replicate these actions:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1084493284543565915/1084546852403290232/image.png

[lime ridge]

I put this

[lime ridge]

here

?

[upper thicket]

That's the example script I'm talking about

It is merely an example - not precisely what you need

Remove one of the arrays.
Rename it to WheelObjects or something
Remove the loops connected to the array you removed from the code.
Script should have no errors at this point.

[lime ridge]

WheelObjects

its same of WheelParent

everything is inside him

[upper thicket]

oh

hm, I can't recall if there's any need to disable the children

[keen estuary]

.. not sure what the end goal is here.. im just seeing pointing out errors i catch lol

[lime ridge]

Spawn

[keen estuary]

sup

[upper thicket]

If I got this right, he just needs to encapsulate that button's actions into a public method, so he can call it several times, at different points in the game

[lime ridge]

the end goal is

when the user get the prize on the wheel 1

appear's a button "Go to second wheel"

[keen estuary]

mmhmm gotcha

[lime ridge]

If u see the vid

u understand

[upper thicket]

Oh, a second button

[lime ridge]

on the vid i start on second wheel

and i spin it 1 time and appear the button back to wheel 1

and it goes

but on wheel 1 when i got the prize he stay appearing the button to stay on wheel 1

with a second button or not, i just want if the user get's prize on the first wheel go to the second wheel

if its by a button or a transition i dont care, i just want that the user goes to the second wheel

and i dont know whats the best way to do this..

[keen estuary]

the video is hard to follow... sorry, i mean i see the video but without seeing When you click the screen and without you telling me like at what part of that video the second button should appear its hard to know..

[lime ridge]

ok i will tell you

wait a sec pls bor

[keen estuary]

it looks like alot of it is working how it should.. so

[lime ridge]

bro*

[keen estuary]

u got most of it working.. i dont get how this is any different than that other stuff..

[lime ridge]

Here

this is the prize

50$ righ

[keen estuary]

aight.. yup, i seen that part

[lime ridge]

and this button

[keen estuary]

which button?

[lime ridge]

bring me back to the first wheel again

[keen estuary]

the bag of cash

is that the button?

[keen estuary]

ohh ok

[lime ridge]

is not a button

is a text that makes a button kkakkakk

[keen estuary]

so it is a button

[lime ridge]

yes it is

[keen estuary]

lol

[upper thicket]

clickable text 🕵️

[lime ridge]

muahahah

and when i press him

[keen estuary]

ok.. so when u press that button

[lime ridge]

he brings me to the start again

[keen estuary]

ok.. and is that not what u want to happen?

[lime ridge]

and i want that he brings me to the second wheel

[keen estuary]

ok ok.. so when u press that button why does it take u to the start?

do u call the code on the button click?

[lime ridge]

yes

[keen estuary]

yea.. but do u call code to take u back to the start

[lime ridge]

because

the wheel one

when it ends the spin

makes this

[keen estuary]

^ this is the word button one?

[lime ridge]

yes

independently of the outcome

[keen estuary]

i dont see anything there that would take u back to the start

[lime ridge]

oh imsry

wait wait wait

[keen estuary]

unless ur ClaimReward() function does it

[lime ridge]

exactly

[upper thicket]

Where in the code is the action for when the text is clicked?

[keen estuary]

soo.. if thats why it happens why not change it so it doesnt happen?

[lime ridge]

No

Because

this "clickable text"

[keen estuary]

yea?

[lime ridge]

always appear independently

of the prize

or not prize u got?...

[keen estuary]

yea.. sooo

thats why we talked about the parameter earlier

u can call the same function regardless if u win a prize or not..

and do different things depending on if u did or not

or if u pass in a 0 or a 1 for example

[lime ridge]

ok

[keen estuary]

i thought thats what this was all about...

[lime ridge]

wait

i will send

When i press the clickable text

he makes me this

stop the animation, reset the rotation of the wheel and destroy all reward display too

[keen estuary]

yea, that shouldn't send u back to the start of the game?

i dont see anything there that would

[lime ridge]

Yes he send

cause of that wait

When i press the button

[lime ridge]

he makes this

[lime ridge]

and this

activate the Spin Button

[keen estuary]

when u press the button yea i see.. u set active all those objects

[lime ridge]

Exactly

And those objects

are from the Wheel 1

[keen estuary]

alrighty

soo... have 2 different buttons lol

the other button u can change out with WheelParent2

Wheelborder2

wheelarrow2

[lime ridge]

Yes i can

[keen estuary]

then just toggle whichever buttons u need for that situation

so after u press wheel1 button it disappears and then shows u wheel 2 button

[lime ridge]

no bro

[keen estuary]

which then does the same thing as wheel1 button but instead uses all ur wheel2 objects

[lime ridge]

No bro..

This button always appear after the wheel 1 spins

[keen estuary]

idk if u explaining it again is gonna do good or worse tbh

[keen estuary]

yea.. ok and is that an issue?

or is that what u want to happen or what?

[lime ridge]

And i want to make this button just appear

when the prize was "not prize"

[keen estuary]

umm.. well where in the script do u determine if it was a prize?

u can leave the button disabled

and then at that part in the code enable it if its a prize

[lime ridge]

here are the item_types

prem = prize noprem = no prize

[keen estuary]

ya.. so just check the enum..

[keen estuary]

i mean, i dont even see the enum being used tbh

[upper thicket]

Sidenote: Both for-loops can use int i as long as they are not nested inside one another

[keen estuary]

^ pro move

lOl

im confuzed af ngl

[lime ridge]

u and me bro

im getting crazy with this 4 real kkkkkkkk

[keen estuary]

i tried asking more questions to help me understand better, but just ended up adding to the pool of information, whether its helpful or not

and now im to the point where i lost all orientation 😄

[upper thicket]

Alright. Have you made any changes to the code during this conversation? @lime ridge

[keen estuary]

Rov go beast mode

[lime ridge]

nop

[keen estuary]

im missing something simple. cuz how could this be hard.. if u have an enum lol..

if enum == noprize { //enable the darn button}

[upper thicket]

Okay. You are going to do one simple thing:
Create a method that does what each button does.

One method for each unique button action

[keen estuary]

^ I see where u going with this

[upper thicket]

Use the example script from before (the one in the scene). Just rewrite it completely.

[lime ridge]

Create on cs in code??

[upper thicket]

Write C# methods that do exactly what each of your buttons do.

Once that is done, you will set the buttons to do those methods* in stead

[keen estuary]

this is better strategy anyway tbh

[lime ridge]

but my buttons are turning active by the Inspector and doing something who is in code

So u want i create a method with this

writing on c#

[lime ridge]

i can not make just a parameter , if enum = prem {enable button1} else {enable button2}

??

[keen estuary]

u can for example set those active in ur functions

make it easier to read instead of ur button enabling this and disabling that.. u can call a function instead..

inside that function u can do all those things...

[lime ridge]

Yes but the problem is that im very new in the coding life and im not sure what to do

[keen estuary]

makes for better readibility

    public GameObject WheelParent;
    public GameObject WheelBorder;
    public GameObject WheelArrow;


    public void OpenWheel()
    {
        WheelParent.SetActive(true);
        WheelBorder.SetActive(true);
        WheelArrow.SetActive(true);
    }

    public void CloseWheel()
    {
        WheelParent.SetActive(false);
        WheelBorder.SetActive(false);
        WheelArrow.SetActive(false);
    }```

[lime ridge]

and this is the final project of school and i just need to make this and im very very close to give up to be serious

[keen estuary]

i mean... no ones stopping u lol..

coding isn't exactly something that u just start doing and know how it works

its gonna be difficult at first.. until u learn whats what

[lime ridge]

Ye i know, but this seems to be an very easy thing and i cant to solve

...

[keen estuary]

but anyways.. in this example i do the same thing u do with ur button

it enables this and this and this

but now we could just call 1 function

[lime ridge]

Yeah ok i understand no

now*

I make a script with this

for 2 buttons?

[upper thicket]

a script with methods that buttons can use

[lime ridge]

everything on the same script

right?

[upper thicket]

yes, for simplicity

[upper thicket]

structure is nice. Your script is a bit of a challenge with its size 😅

[keen estuary]

see now my button actually does 1 singular thing

but it actually does all this junk

[lime ridge]

ye i understand

bro

[keen estuary]

    public GameObject WheelParent;
    public GameObject WheelBorder;
    public GameObject WheelArrow;

    public void OpenWheel()
    {
        WheelParent.SetActive(true);
        WheelBorder.SetActive(true);
        WheelArrow.SetActive(true);
    }``` 

because that Function does *all* of that

now u can have a function do a singular thing for everything u wanna do..

ur buttons can call different functions from the same script..

that script could also be in charge of for an example enabling and disabling certain buttons when u want

[lime ridge]

Ok

and i will put the enum

here too?

to enable the button 1 if enum = prize

or not?

[upper thicket]

Rephrase the last two things. (I can't understand xD, Maybe I'm just out of juice)

[lime ridge]

and this

[lime ridge]

So, i will make a script who going to got all functions of the buttons

and after this how i will connect the enum to know if is to show button 1 or button 2?

[upper thicket]

Where is the code for where you would spawn button 2 ?

wait, it's not up yet

[keen estuary]

    public void SpinWheel()
    {
        //bla bla you do some kind of logic
        //bla bla find out if you won
        //wonPrize = if(youwon);

        if(wonPrize)
        {
            Won_A_Prize_Button.SetActive(true);
        }
        else
        {
            //do nothing
        }
    }```

yea thats the only logic missing

these are again just examples..

[keen estuary]

its in ur logic somewhere already.. u add things to a list or an array or something, i seen it

if u add anything to ur list of prizes, or something then u already know where to put ur logic

u dont have to even use the enum, i just happened to notice it.. if ur not really using it u can do it with a simple boolean or something

public bool wonPrize;

[lime ridge]

But im using enum bro...

[keen estuary]

if u add something to the array set the bool to tru

u say u are..

[upper thicket]

if(rewardObject.CompareTag("Extra Spin Reward"))
{
    OpenWheel();
}

[keen estuary]

i dont really see where u use it tbh.. and not sure how u use it

u may just use it to tell the prize what it can be.. not sure if it represents the prize u actually get

as the player if that makes anysense

[lime ridge]

Well

i need to create a script with all the functions to the button first

[upper thicket]

Fix what can be fixed. Then get some rest. You already made all this. You'll figure out a way.

[lime ridge]

Bro i dont make anything

Literally i cant make anything

[upper thicket]

Have you not created this project by yourself?

[lime ridge]

No bro, this is an lucky spin wheel template, and i get im and im adapting it to my liking, because im making my last school project

And i change the wheel, wheel prizes etc

[keen estuary]

Well, your' super close.. But also really far..

ur missing some aspects of basic syntax and how the editor works to full get it all together

i suggest u go back and look into some really beginner tutorials to get ur bearings

but at the same time u sed this is END of school project.. and it seems to me ur just trying to throw crap at the wall until something works

that unfortunately.. isnt gonna be the best way to solve and figure this out..

Also little related tip: try to name things in a way that it makes sense to you as you read/ try to code it.. for example :

in this example the function is called ClaimReward
to me that implies there is a reward..
if theres always a reward then that name is fine..

    public void ClaimReward()
    {
        playersReward = reward;
    }```

if instead, for example u *may* or *may not* get a reward yet u still call this function
(which is also pretty normal)
then name would probably become something like `TryClaimReward`

```cs
    public void TryClaimReward()
    {
        if(wonPrize && reward != null)
        {
            playersReward = reward;
        }
        else if(wonPrize && reward == null)
        {
            Debug.Log("We won but there's no prize");
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.Log("We didn't win.");
        }
    }

little helpful tip, that is if you're actually interested in learnin'

[lime ridge]

ofc im interested to learn

but i get this code on internet

and the code was made and working

so i want to make some changes

and like u se in the vid its everything ok just the button not associated with prize or not...

and this is fucking me up

[upper thicket]

From where did you get it btw?

[keen estuary]

ya, thats the part that makes me wonder.. thats a really really easy concept.. to check against a bool, or an enum or something... the system u have set up around it is more complex than that

but i dont think u know the basics enuff and thats why ur hung up on this one part

[upper thicket]

Technically, you have all the pieces needed to produce the functionality you want.
The bigger issue is that this is all a bit overwhelming to you, so it may take some time before you see how easily you could do it all.

[keen estuary]

u need to think thru ur code.. its not hard to turn off and on a button

u just need to figure out WHEN

u wanna do it

and then do it

[keen estuary]

agreed

its like right in front of u.. and the crap part is we cant just point at it and show u..

it requires either u to know the reasons/ systems and what they're doing or for us to explain it to u

but thats only useful after u know when and where in the code u wanna do it

[upper thicket]

Since you're so immersed in this project, and you show some promise, I think fixing the methods + buttons and then food + sleep will make you wake up with a solution.

[keen estuary]

^

ur just a eureka moment/ facepalm away

[upper thicket]

Sleep is literally necessary to learn this stuff.

[keen estuary]

instead of relying on the buttons and the inspector to do everything u wanna do try to think of it like this:

have the script instead do everything u want it to do for each case.. SpinWheel(); ResetGame(); TryClaimPrize();

and then u just have ur buttons call ur bank of directions..

one button will call SpinWheel(); <-- then this takes care of the rest..

[lime ridge]

oh

[keen estuary]

the ClaimPrize button can check if u won a prize for example, if u did win a prize it can give the player the prize or something GivePlayerPrize(); and if you didn't win a prize then you could call ResetGame(), ud call everything u need, including but not limited to Enabling an Extra button for you to press.. or if u did.. it

[lime ridge]

but to make this i will need to change all the code

and im not able to change all the code im to bad coding bro...

thats the problem

[keen estuary]

thats how u should do it anyway.. the OnClickEvents are great

but i dont believe shoving all ur actions in there are a good way to go

its better to have collections of instructions aka your Functions

and have a button call 1 or 2 of them at most

[lime ridge]

I won't be able to fix this.. I thought it was something much easy to solve

[keen estuary]

theres many reasons.. but for example.. if ur turning on and off gameobjects all the time thru the Click event.. and then for some reason u need the code to know about one of those objects.. it'd been better to just do all that in a function in the script

then you'd have all the info and all the references u already need..

because its the scripts responsibilty to do anything (related to that particular thing)

[keen estuary]

sure u could.. and its pretty easy.. but its not as easy as adding one more OnClick event inside the inspector

and that proves my point exactly..

[lime ridge]

Yes i know u got certain

but i dont got the minimum experience to make this

thats the problem..

[upper thicket]

Yeah, if you had, we'd be done long ago 😅

[upper thicket]

The solution is in here if you manage to piece it together.
Good luck, bro ✊

[keen estuary]

its alot easier to do this.. and call DoStuff(); in the button

than to instead have ur inspector look like this ^

[upper thicket]

This man makes games. Listen to his advice.

[keen estuary]

but yea, i must be getting to work speaking of..

like Rov said.. the solution is here..

[lime ridge]

Thats ok... im grateful for the help

[keen estuary]

all u need is a boolean.. and a gameObject.SetActive(true);

[lime ridge]

4 real

[keen estuary]

ull get it

🍀 good luck mate

[lime ridge]

https://github.com/CTNeptune/SpinTheWheel and i get this spin wheel

and made all that i got right now

[keen estuary]

ok, 👍 i might look that over in my downtime
