Death Animation Repeat,

Questions & Answers

Hello,

I’m fairly new to Unity and this may be a stupid question/problem. I have come across a problem regarding the death animation. Once the enemies health reaches 0, they will play the death animation however they will continue to play it over and over again.

My code:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Mob : MonoBehaviour
{

    public float speed;
    public float range;
    public CharacterController controller;

    public AnimationClip run;
    public AnimationClip idle;
    public AnimationClip die;

    public Transform player;

    private int health;
        
    // Use this for initialization
    void Start()
    {
        health = 100;
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {

        if (!IsDead())
        {
            if (!inRange())
            {
                chase();
            }

            else
            {
                GetComponent<Animation>().CrossFade("idle");
            }
        }
        else
        {
            GetComponent<Animation>().CrossFade("die");
        }
        Debug.Log(health);

    }

    bool inRange()
    {
        if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position, player.position) < range)
        {
            return true;

        }
        else
        {
            return false;
        }
    }

    public void getHit(int damage)
    {
        health = health - damage;
        if(health<0)
        {
            health = 0;
        }
    }

    void chase()
    {
        transform.LookAt(player.position);
        controller.SimpleMove(transform.forward * speed);
        GetComponent<Animation>().CrossFade("run");
    }

    void diemethod()
    {
        GetComponent<Animation>().CrossFade("die");
        {
            if (GetComponent<Animation>()["die"].time > GetComponent<Animation>()["die"].length * 0.9)
            {
                Destroy(gameObject);
            }
        }
    }
    bool IsDead()
    {
        if(health<=0)
        {
            return true;
        }
        else
        {
            return false;
        }
    }
    void OnMouseOver()
    {
        player.GetComponent<Fighter>().opponent = gameObject;
    }
}

I think the problem may specifically be around here:

    void diemethod()
    {
        GetComponent<Animation>().CrossFade("die");
        {
            if (GetComponent<Animation>()["die"].time > GetComponent<Animation>()["die"].length * 0.9)
            {
                Destroy(gameObject);
            }
        }
    }

I see my stupid mistake. I forgot to replace:

GetComponent<Animation>().CrossFade("die");

with:

diemethod();
