im trying to make a adventure game were you have a person with magic abilitys who goes around doing quest.
my problem is that ive made a script for the fireball shoot thing but when ever i play the game it says
‘script error: update() can not be a coroutine’ i dont know what that means so can someone help me please

heres my script:

var projectile : Rigidbody;
var speed = 20;
var Character : GameObject;
var FireballTime : int = 2;

function Update () {

if ( Input.GetButtonUp ("Fire1")) {

Character.animation.Play("fireball_cast");
yield WaitForSeconds( FireballTime);

clone = Instantiate(projectile, transform.position, transform.rotation);
clone.velocity = transform.TransformDirection( Vector3 (0, 0, speed));

Destroy (clone.gameObject, 3);

}}

thx in advanced

Update makes a call every frame. You need to setup a coroutine to achieve what you want. Replace your code with this:

var projectile : Rigidbody;
var speed = 20;
var Character : GameObject;
var FireballTime : int = 2;

function Update () {

Fire();

}

function Fire() {

if ( Input.GetButtonUp ("Fire1")) {

Character.animation.Play("fireball_cast");
yield WaitForSeconds( FireballTime);

clone = Instantiate(projectile, transform.position, transform.rotation);
clone.velocity = transform.TransformDirection( Vector3 (0, 0, speed));

Destroy (clone.gameObject, 3);

}}
