Completed the Beginner 2D UFO Game tutorial and now wish to expand on it a little a bit. I am having a bit of trouble getting it to count a second object. Both objects I collect count towards the same UI text and they should be different.
Is it possible to get multiple counting UI elements?
Yes,be sure to assign the correct gameObject in each slot in the inspector.
I dont know how that tutorial works nor how its scripts are written ( didnt even know about its exitence) 
If you want more help, provide more info ^^
Without having done it I’m guessing, but you should be able to do exactly what you did to get the first item to count on the UI but map the second object to the second UI element.
