I need to add a death animation for my zombie. The only problem is the only script that works for me destroys the zombie before it can play an animation and sit on the ground for five seconds. Can anybody add an animation to the script? Thankyou.

Here is the script…

#pragma strict 
var health = 10;
var TakeDamage : boolean;
var myCollider : Collider;
 
function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider){
    if(other.tag == "Player"){
      TakeDamage = true;
    }
    myCollider = other;
}
 
function OnTriggerExit(other : Collider){
    if(other.tag == "Player"){
      TakeDamage = false;
    }
}
 
 
function Update(){
    if(TakeDamage){
      if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")){
          health --;
        }
    }
    if(health<= 0){
    print("Enemy Down");
    health = 0;
        if(myCollider != null)
        {
        Destroy(myCollider.gameObject);
        
        }
    }
 
}

The Destroy function can be given a time value to delay the destruction:

Destroy( myCollider.gameobject, 5 ); // 5 secs delay

or

Use a coroutine

if(health<= 0)
{
StartCoroutine( "Die" );
}

IEnumerator Die()
{
   // Play die animation
   animation.Play( "DIE" ); // Its hard to tell you how to do this without knowing how you are animating. Are you using mechanim?


   yield return new WaitForSeconds( deathAnimationTime );

   Destroy( gameobject )
}
