Game Object not being destroyed at 0 lives

Question

I'm trying to get it so that the player game object will destroy itself when lives = 0 which is done by hitting a prefab 3 times called shuriken.

Here is the code I'm using: public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour {

 public float speed;
 private Rigidbody2D rb2d;
 private int lives=3;
 public GameObject Player;
 void Start ()
 {
     rb2d = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D> ();
 }
 
 void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
 {
     if (other.gameObject.CompareTag ("shuriken")) 
     {
         lives-- ;
         if (lives <= 0) 
         {
             Destroy (Player);
         }
     }
 }

If this script is a component of "player" then there is no need to have Destroy(player)

try:

destroy();

In any case, add a Debug.Log("Trigger Entered") or something to understand where the code is failin. Good luck and keep us updated!

I have tried Destroy(); ins$$anonymous$$d of the Destroy(Player);

Unfortunately, I have an error saying "No overload for method 'Destroy' takes 0 arguments.

Thanks for your help

Ok, how about we try to destroy the player using tags, assign a tag for the player gameobject and then use:

Destroy(GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Player");
