I have this code in a child class but for some reason my override method is not getting called
{
public override void Interact()
{
base.Interact();
PickUpItem();
}
void PickUpItem()
{
Debug.Log("Picked up item");
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}
Parent Class code:
{
Debug.Log("Interacting with " + transform.name);
}
When I interact with an object that has the ItemPickup script assigned to it. it performs the function of the base method in the parent class but not the child class

When I interact with an object that has the ItemPickup script assigned to it. it...
Show how you're calling it
maiden mesa
What do you mean?
turbid mica
Where do you call the method?
neat moss
Not sure how to be more clear about that...
turbid mica
So you only get one log?
maiden mesa
yeah
turbid mica
yeah
That's not the log from the base method . . .
Again, show where you're calling Interact . . .
maiden mesa
the code I have above are the only 2 instances of the method being called
neat moss
Sounds like you're just not calling it at all probably
neat moss
the code I have above are the only 2 instances of the method being called
That's the method being defined, not called
maiden mesa
My update method in the parent class could be messing it up
neat moss
??
maiden mesa
{
if (isFocused && !interacted)
{
float distance = Vector3.Distance(player.position, interactionPoint.position);
if(distance <= interactionRadius)
{
Debug.Log("Interact");
interacted = true;
}
}
}```
yeah this is whats actually being called, so instead of the Debug line here, i would call the Interact method?You need to actually call Interact() on something
turbid mica
Do you know how to call a method?
neat moss
If you want it to run
turbid mica
```private void Update()
{
if (isFocused && !interacted)
{
...
You call Vector3.Distance here in Update. You need to do the same thing with your Interact method . . .
maiden mesa
Alright replace the debug line with the Update method call fixed it
