Helo Unity3D guru :slight_smile: look, here is my code:

function Update() {
	movenpart2.transform.position = Dummy2.transform.position;
	movenpart.transform.position.x = Dummy1.transform.position.x;
	movenpart.transform.position.y = Dummy1.transform.position.y;
	movenpart.transform.position.z = Dummy2.transform.position.z;
	
	if(moveToFirst == true){
		var ss1 = Mathf.Abs(x[0]);
		var ss2 = Mathf.Abs(y[0]);
		var xx1 = Vector3(x[0],Dummy1.transform.position.y,Dummy1.transform.position.z); 
		var yy1 = Vector3(Dummy2.transform.position.x,Dummy2.transform.position.y,y[0]);
		var firstDist1 = Vector3.Distance(Dummy1.transform.position, xx1);
		var firstDist2 = Vector3.Distance(Dummy2.transform.position, yy1);
		Dummy1.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp (Dummy1.transform.position, xx1, ss1 * Regularspeed * Time.time / firstDist1);
		Dummy2.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp (Dummy2.transform.position, yy1, ss2 * Regularspeed * Time.time / firstDist2);	
	}
	
	
	
	if (Dummy1.transform.position == Vector3(Dummy1.transform.position.x,Dummy1.transform.position.y,x[0]) && Dummy2.transform.position == Vector3(y[0],Dummy2.transform.position.y,Dummy1.transform.position.z) && moveToFirst == true) {
	//if (firstDist1 == 0 && firstDist2 == 0) {
	    moveToFirst = false;
	    counter = 1;
	    startCuttin = true;
	}
	
	if(moveToFirst) print("moveToFirst");
	else print("moveToFirst False");
					
	 if(startCuttin) print("Cuttin");
	 else print("Cut False");
} ///End of update func.

If position of movenpart & movenpart2 variables == array x[0], y[0](used for Z coord.)I need turn to false variable moveToFirst and startCuttin to true

I see in SceneView that Coordinates equal to than what are in my arrays, but I see in console that values of moveToFirst and startCuttin doesn’t change… Can smbdy tell me what is wrong? Thanx for attention…
P.S. Sorry for my poor English if smthing wrong:)

Try to declare moveToFirst and startCuttin as static variable …

static var moveToFirst:boolean=true;
static var startCuttin:boolean=false;

before your function

doesn’t help…
have any other ideas?
P.S. what is the difference between static var , var , private var (and what type of variable there are?)

static var are global variables that can be used all over the function in a script if they are declared outside the functions, they can also be used by other scripts, they can be modified from outside the script in the properties panel … private var are all used in the script itself and cannot be modified from outside the scrip … that’s why you need to declare it static so that all modification to the variable value would be taken in consideration
