#FirepointIssue
abstract widget
It does not work 😂
sprite just moves to coordinates instead
oh wait, thats old vide
worldly storm
What is Firepoint set to in the inspector?
worldly storm
No, what is firepoint property of PlayerController set to?
Ah, it's not serialized
firepoint = GetComponent<Transform>();
this
abstract widget
private Transform firepoint; and firepoint = GetComponent<Transform>(); in Update
worldly storm
What do you think that line does?
abstract widget
Finds ...... fire point object?
I used firepoint = GameObject.Find("FirePoint").transform; but its just freezes character in one place
worldly storm
freezes?🤨
abstract widget
the player just cant move at all if i use firepoint = GameObject.Find("FirePoint").transform;
abstract widget
`firepoint = GetComponent<Transform>();`
shoul i make a [SerializiedField] and try dragging firepont into it?
worldly storm
the player just cant move at all if i use firepoint = GameObject.Find("FirePoint...
That's not possible. At least not according to the code that you shared.
worldly storm
shoul i make a [SerializiedField] and try dragging firepont into it?
Yeah, that might work too.
abstract widget
ill send the video
i am pressing arrows, or a or d, but player does not move.
i will try serialized field now
it does not work
sad TT
worldly storm
Share your current code.
worldly storm
So if you comment out firepoint = GameObject.Find("FirePoint").transform;, does it fix your movement?
abstract widget
yes
but if i put firepoint = GetComponent<Transform>(); instead character goes to (-3.0.15f.0)
worldly storm
What if you comment out firepoint and all the code that uses it?
abstract widget
Then i can move and shoot snowballs to the right
but firepoint location does not flip with the character and snowball hits character when sprite is facing left
I use separate script for attack https://hastepaste.com/view/rZqQQ
and here is my snowball scripthttps://hastepaste.com/view/TwcX
abstract widget
ok
Sorry can’t take a screenshot since I am accessing desktop remotely, here’s a picture instead
worldly storm
I don't see the firepoint variable in the inspector. Did you comment it out?
abstract widget
currently yes
abstract widget
ok
worldly storm
Then add debugs in your movement logic.
abstract widget
Ok
worldly storm
if (WallJumpCoolDown > 0.2f)
{
player.velocity = new Vector2(horizontalInput * speed, player.velocity.y);
Debug.Log($"setting velocity to {player.velocity}");
if (isWall() && !isGrounded())
{
player.gravityScale = 2;
player.velocity = Vector2.zero;
Debug.Log($"resetting the velocity");
CreateDirt();
anim.SetTrigger("WallSlide");
}
else
player.gravityScale = 3;
if (Input.GetButtonDown("Jump"))
{
Jump();
CreateSnow();
jumpSE.Play();
}
}
ok i put that in
worldly storm
What do you see in your console when trying to move?
Take a screenshot of the console
abstract widget
hmmm, nothing but error pops up now NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
PlayerController.Awake () (at Assets/Scripts/PlayerController.cs:37)
worldly storm
Share the updated script
abstract widget
ok
Btw this happens if I put get component <transformer> instead
updated code with debug
worldly storm
ufff
okay
The name here is wrong:
firepoint = GameObject.Find("FirePoint").transform;
It should be "Firepoint".
abstract widget
o,like in ispector?
lets see
OMG ITS WORKING NOW
I FEEL SO STUPID
THANK YOU SO MUCH
worldly storm
You were probably getting errors before(when your character didn't move). Always check your console for errors. Hiding the regular message logs can help you see the errors.
