UNITY3D: Update Score when character collides with vase

manilamerc

Right now I have score code that updates by 10 when I click on the screen but I want to have it so when my character collides with the vase the vase disappears and it updates the score. Have no idea if all this needs to be in an Update function or what. Someone please help.

var vase : String = "Bob";
private var scoreText:GUIText;
private var score:int;

function Start ()
{
//intialize our variables listed

score = 0;

scoreText = GameObject.Find("GUI_Score").GetComponent(GUIText) ;
//call update function to update text
UpdateScoreText();

}

function Update ()
{
//if left click of left ctrl is pressed
if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
{
//upate score variable
score += 10;

//call update function to update text
UpdateScoreText();
}

}

function UpdateScoreText()
{
//update the GUI Text on screen
scoreText.text = "Score: " + score;
}





function OnCollisionEnter(c:Collision)
{
if (c.gameObject.name == "vase" )
{
Destroy(c.gameObject); // destroys the thing this script bumped into

}

}

You might be better asking over in the Scripting section of the Unity3D forums;
http://forum.unity3d.com/forums/12-Scripting

But you'll want to add these lines to your OnCollisionEnter function;

score -= 1;
UpdateScoreText();

I did post this in Unity forums but no one answered

Thanks Fararer but how would I have the score add up as I pick up different vases?

You'd need to test against what kind of vase you hit.

Either via the vase object's name, or a component attached to it or it's tag...

Then do +=1 or -=1 depending on which.
