Destroy gameObject with tag

Unity Engine

1

I’m sure I saw this a few months ago, but I cannot find it with searches, and I cannot get the right syntax.

I want to delete a gameObject that has a particular tag. At the time I do it, I know there will be 1 object with that tag. I thought it was something like:

Destroy (gameObjectWithTag("gameMenu"));

Edit: Sorry, I posted then realised it should be in the scripting forum.

Edit 2: Solved, I’d had the right answer before, but a spelling mistake meant it hadn’t worked, so I’d tried everything else. The correct format is:

Destroy (GameObject.FindWithTag("gameMenu"));

Destroy(gameObjectWithTag(“gameMenu”));
Спасибо ! Это работает для уничтожения старого объекта ( сейчас как раз RPG )типа Diablo делаю, и мне как-раз понадобилось создавать и подсвечивать новую target position и уничтожать старую target position

I set up a function that can be called from elsewhere:

    void Update ()
    {
        if (condition)
        {
            DestroyWithTag ("myTag");
        }
    }

    void DestroyWithTag (string destroyTag)
    {
        GameObject[] destroyObject;
        destroyObject = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag(destroyTag);
        foreach (GameObject oneObject in destroyObject)
            Destroy (oneObject);
    }
