Hi, so i posted a question to the default answers page but it's been under moderation for 2 days now so was advised to post my question here instead.
I'm fairly new to Unity and coding so bear with me but essentially I have 2 separate codes; the first is for the player to shoot when i hold down the "Fire1" key which works perfectly, and then there's this one which doesn't work so nicely...
I'm trying to add a raycast to my object so that whenever the player is in line of sight it invokes the "shooting" function, the actual raycast works but I believe that raycasts are once every tick so the code is getting invoked then cancelled repetitively causing it to shoot every frame instead of at the determined interval.
should i add a interval between the raycasts using boolean's so that it isn't every frame but instead at a determined interval? or do i need to change it from Update?
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class EnemyShootingScript : MonoBehaviour {
public GameObject BulletEmitter;
public GameObject Bullet;
public float BulletForwardForce;
public float FireRateSeconds;
public GameObject Enemy;
private float rayDirection;
public float RayOffset;
void Raycast ()
{
RaycastHit hit;
if (Physics.Raycast (transform.position, transform.forward * RayOffset, out hit)) {
Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, transform.forward * RayOffset, Color.green, 2);
//print ("Something in line of sight");
print (hit.collider.gameObject.name);
if (hit.collider.gameObject.name == "Player")
{
//print ("Player in line of sight");
InvokeRepeating ("Shooting", .001f, FireRateSeconds);
}
else
{
CancelInvoke ("Shooting");
}
}
}
void Shooting ()
{
GameObject TemporaryBulletHandler;
TemporaryBulletHandler = Instantiate (Bullet, BulletEmitter.transform.position, BulletEmitter.transform.rotation) as GameObject;
TemporaryBulletHandler.transform.Rotate(Vector3.forward);
Rigidbody TemporaryRigidbody;
TemporaryRigidbody = TemporaryBulletHandler.GetComponent ();
TemporaryRigidbody.AddForce (transform.forward * BulletForwardForce);
Destroy (TemporaryBulletHandler, 3.0f);
}
}
Thanks in advance :) Pen
