Question by sam32x · Oct 07, 2012 at 04:52 AM · variablefunctionvarsomething

variable doesn't change

the actual script is 500+ lines long so here are some parts this is the function for getting hit with a fireball

 function FireballHit () {
 health -= laserDamage * damageMultiplier * 2.5; //damage
 if(blocking == 0){ //if not blocking
 Instantiate(laserHitSound,transform.position,transform.rotation); //play a sound
 hit = 1; //character is hit
 transform.Rotate(Vector3.right * -20); //rotate backwards to make it look better
 Destroy(shownMesh);// destroy the current mesh
 shownMesh = Instantiate(hitMesh,transform.position,transform.rotation); // create a
 //different mesh
 Invoke("Unhit",3);//stop being hit (hit = 0;)
 }
 }

all the attacks have if(hit == 0){ at the start when the character is hit, hit doesn't change from 0, does anyone know the problem?

put a print(hit); straight after your hit command. and also print("hit line 20"); etc every time ; and copy those 2 lines about 10 times down the code, so that when you play you see what happens to hit, where it changes and changes back. i had an error like that and in the end i had left a variable change outside of the loop i thought it was in.
