Question by a1exi8 · Mar 05, 2013 at 03:26 AM · gameobjecttimespeedparallaxboost

Reset speed after a specified time

Im currently creating a 2d side scrolling game. When the character (which is a bike) hits the boost he speeds up, but I cant seem to get him to slow down again. I should point out that the character is actually immobile and the environment around him is moving (I did this because I wanted to create a parallax effect with the background). When he hits the boost, the environment speeds up. The codes something like this:

void OnTriggerEnter(Collider theCollision){

 if(theCollision.gameObject.name == "Token Boost") {

 Debug.Log ("Hit the item boost!");
 Destroy (theCollision.gameObject);
 foreach(GameObject go in GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("environment")){
     go.GetComponent<parallax>().Speed *= 0.5f;
 }        

}

If you could help me out id greatly appreciate it
