Question by Marcurion · Dec 11, 2011 at 10:33 PM · gameobjectdestroyprefabs

Destroy all Objects of a Type in Game

Hi, i want to destroy all Prefabs of a certain type ingame,

"JumpGemPrefab" is the name of the prefab, "JumpGemPrefab(Clone)" is the name ingame, and "JumpGem" is the name of the attached script.

 enter code here
 GameObject other = GameObject.Find("JumpGemPrefab(Clone)");
 Destroy(other);

works but destroys only one of the Prefabs.

 enter code here
 GameObject[] others = (GameObject[])FindObjectsOfTypeAll(typeof(JumpGem));
 foreach (GameObject other in others)
 { Destroy(other); }

has no effect.

Greetings Marcurion

Then please "accept" my script's answer to make it green. ^^ It is a kind of round validation button on the left of the answer. Oh, and one last advice : if you want to thank someone for his answer or answer to his "answer", please use the "add new comment" little button ins$$anonymous$$d of the answer box below. This "answers" site works differently from a forum. ^^
