donotdestroy for hud - but hud appears on main menu :(

Questions & Answers
1

i have a hud for a game made with guitextures and gui.buttons i added it to an empty game object and added a donotdestroy to this function so that it would carry over health, mana, skillpoints etc to the next scene

the problem im having is i have an esc menu that can bring you back to the main menu screen (to adjust options or whatever) and the hud still appears! i would like the hud to be destroyed. i tried inputing a bool variable in the esc menu to be true to destroy hud and in my hud script i had

function Awake () {

if (destroygui ==true) { Destroy (this);} // also tried Destroy ("hud"); which is name of the game object else {DontDestroyOnLoad (this);}

}

// gui code below //etc etc

any ideas ?

thanks !

You could add the following to your hud component.

OnLevelWasLoaded(int level)
{
    if (level == ##Your menus level number##)
        destroy(this);
}
