Can't shoot enemies

Physics
1

Hello,

I’ve been following the Survival Shooter Tutorial, I’m almost finished but I can’t harm enemies because my shooting animation doesn’t work and doesn’t respond to the enemy. Enemies can hurt me, I can die, but I can’t kill them. I’ve tried to work around it for several days but I’m stuck.

Can someone help?

This is my Playershooting.cs

using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerShooting : MonoBehaviour
{
    public int damagePerShot = 20;
    public float timeBetweenBullets = 0.15f;
    public float range = 50f;


    float timer;
    Ray shootRay = new Ray();
    RaycastHit shootHit;
    int shootableMask;
    ParticleSystem gunParticles;
    LineRenderer gunLine;
    AudioSource gunAudio;
    Light gunLight;
    float effectsDisplayTime = 0.2f;


    void Awake ()
    {
        shootableMask = LayerMask.GetMask ("Shootable");
        gunParticles = GetComponent<ParticleSystem> ();
        gunLine = GetComponent <LineRenderer> ();
        gunAudio = GetComponent<AudioSource> ();
        gunLight = GetComponent<Light> ();
    }


    void Update ()
    {
        timer += Time.deltaTime;

        if(Input.GetButton ("Fire1") && timer >= timeBetweenBullets && Time.timeScale != 0)
        {
            Shoot ();
        }

        if(timer >= timeBetweenBullets * effectsDisplayTime)
        {
            DisableEffects ();
        }
    }


    public void DisableEffects ()
    {
        gunLine.enabled = false;
        gunLight.enabled = false;
    }


    void Shoot ()
    {
        timer = 0f;

        gunAudio.Play ();

        gunLight.enabled = true;

        gunParticles.Stop ();
        gunParticles.Play ();

        gunLine.enabled = true;
        gunLine.SetPosition (0, transform.position);

        shootRay.origin = transform.position;
        shootRay.direction = transform.forward;

        if(Physics.Raycast (shootRay, out shootHit, range, shootableMask))
        {
            EnemyHealth enemyHealth = shootHit.collider.GetComponent <EnemyHealth> ();
            if(enemyHealth != null)
            {
                enemyHealth.TakeDamage (damagePerShot, shootHit.point);
            }
            gunLine.SetPosition (1, shootHit.point);
        }
        else
        {
            gunLine.SetPosition (1, shootRay.origin + shootRay.direction * range);
        }
    }
}

If you Debug.log a statement in Shoot() does your code path follow the the enemyHealth was null or that it was not null?
If it wasn’t null, perhaps seeing the enemyHealth script might help.
