Can I Access a Switch Statement From A Coroutine?

Unity Engine
1

I have a long switch case set of functions in C# I’m wondering if I can access or maybe I should say trigger a specific case from a coroutine?

Something like:

IEnumerator CheckIfAsked(){
KITTmodesObject.KITT_isThinking = true;
yield return new WaitForSeconds (3.0f); // wait time
KITTmodesObject.KITT_isThinking = false;

Access Switch Statement named "HaveIaskedThisBefore"

}

My Switch statements are being called like this:

 public void pressButtonForCommand(string command)
    {

switch (command) {
            
            case "HaveIaskedThisBefore":
                // Do Stuff
                }
                break;

Not sure what the question is. Do you want to put a switch statement in your coroutine? Or call a method from a coroutine that has a switch statement? I don’t see a reason why you couldn’t do either. Are you running into issues?

Like this? Or am I missing something?

pressButtonForCommand("HaveIaskedThisBefore");

Sorry @Brathnann I should have been more clear.
Basically I want to call the switch case named

case "HaveIaskedThatBefore":

From my Coroutine.
I’m just not sure how to properly access it.
I could just copy everything from the switch case and throw that into my coroutine but it seemed silly since the switch case has it all there already if I can just access it.

Thanks @HelloMeow,
I’ll try that, maybe it is that simple… :wink:

@HelloMeow Thanks, yup, that’s exactly what it was… perfect.

It seems you don’t need a switch statement, just extract the case block into a function, and call that function instead.

Yeah I could have done it that way it just seemed a bit redundant to have the code twice when all I needed to do was access it. @HelloMeow had what I needed. :slight_smile:
