C# Invoke Function with Params and Delay

Questions & Answers
1

Is there a concise way to call the invoke function on a void with parameters, on a delay. I understand that you can call:

Invoke(string function, float delay)

However, that’s not all too helpful when your function has parameter(s)

void writeToConsole(string text){

his is does.

You used to be able to if I remember correctly, but I can’t find it in the docs. So my advice would be to use a Coroutine instead. It works kind of the same way.

StartCoroutine(Foo("Text", 2));

IEnumerator Foo(string text, float delay)
{
	yield return new WaitForSeconds(delay);

	// code here
}

@ForgeStudios we have created a paid asset that can help you delay functions with parameters in just one line of code with no need to use coroutines.

It’s called Super Invoke, it’s like a more powerful Invoke.

Using Super Invoke your code would become:

float delay = 1f;
SuperInvoke.Run( ()=> writeToConsole("A delayed log"), delay);

You can also create sequences with methods and delays with which you can fully control a complex flow in a handy and easy-to-read way.

For instance you might want to write something to the console and after 1 second you want to instantiate an object. With Super Invoke it will be:

SuperInvoke.CreateSequence()
    .AddMethod( ()=> writeToConsole("Hello World"))
    .AddDelay(1f)
    .AddMethod( ()=> Instantiate(object))
    .Run();
