Adding a button component to a prefab

Questions & Answers

hey guys… I’m following a tutorial on how to create a main menu and he used prefabs to animate buttons.
I’m trying to add events to the buttons using the onClick() in unity editor. the problem is that it seems there’s a problem when linking the prefab animation to the button . for example when I’m selecting the “new game” option but click on the continue button using the mouse, it triggers the continue onClick() events . I tried to add a condition so that the onClick() only triggers when I’m both selecting and pressing the button but it didn’t work… any idea how I can fix this?

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using UnityEngine.EventSystems;

public class MenuButton : MonoBehaviour
{
	[SerializeField] MenuButtonController menuButtonController;
	[SerializeField] Animator animator;
	[SerializeField] AnimatorFunctions animatorFunctions;
	[SerializeField] int thisIndex;
	[SerializeField] Button button;
	[SerializeField] bool isPressedAnimationPlaying = false;

	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update()
	{
		if (menuButtonController.index == thisIndex)
		{
			animator.SetBool("selected", true);
			if (Input.GetAxis("Submit") == 1 || Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
			{
				animator.SetBool("pressed", true);
				isPressedAnimationPlaying = true; // Set the variable to true when the animation starts
			}
			else if (animator.GetBool("pressed"))
			{
				animator.SetBool("pressed", false);
				animatorFunctions.disableOnce = true;
				isPressedAnimationPlaying = false; // Set the variable to false when the animation ends
			}
		}
		else
		{
			animator.SetBool("selected", false);
		}

		if (menuButtonController.index == thisIndex && animator.GetBool("pressed") && !isPressedAnimationPlaying)
		{
			button.onClick.Invoke();
		}
	}
