[drifting garden]

have u followed unity and c# courses

[valid vapor]

a little bit

i didnt listen on class

i was playng clash of clans

[drifting garden]

yeah thats not smart

so now i need to spoonfeed u the answer bcs u didnt pay attention

make a new script

[valid vapor]

maybe when you need help i will help you back

[valid vapor]

ok

done

usually in this part i ask chat gpt or i check online if someone have done it

[drifting garden]

chatgpt is bad for code

[valid vapor]

perfect

[drifting garden]

the way u move ur heart is a problem

bcs its gonna be hard to check

[valid vapor]

i move it with arrows

[drifting garden]

anyway what u can do

u can check by collision

[valid vapor]

i have a lot of thing that i want to do with it

[drifting garden]

give button a collider

[valid vapor]

i want that i can click botton with enter when you are on it

and the text need to turn yellow

[valid vapor]

ok

[drifting garden]

write in script:

private void OnTriggerEnter2D

[valid vapor]

i dont knwo why i cant see the box collider

[drifting garden]

btw make the collider a trigger

[valid vapor]

ok

[drifting garden]

clikc this

[valid vapor]

done it

[valid vapor]

and now?

[drifting garden]

private void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D col)
{
  if (col.gameObject.CompareTag("Button")
  {
    col.transform.GetComponent<Text>().Color = new Color(255, 255, 0, 0);
  }
}

private void OnTriggerExit2D(Collider2D other)
{
  if (other.gameObject.CompareTag("Button")
  {
    other.transform.GetComponent<Text>().Color = new Color(255, 255, 255, 0);
  }
}

give all buttons the Button tag

(create new tag called 'Button')

[valid vapor]

code like this?

[drifting garden]

write 'using UnityEngine.UI;' at the top

line 1

of ur script

[drifting garden]
