How do I stop infinite instantiation?

Questions & Answers

My game features a character opening doors and a new room instantitates on the other side of the door when its opened. I’ve been able to achieve that, but the problem is that the door instantiates infinitely and I can’t seem to stop it. How do I only instantiate it once?

Here’s some code I’m using.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class RoomSpawnL : MonoBehaviour {
	
	public Transform Room_Prefab;
	//private Vector3 OriPos;
	//private Vector3 OriRot;
	//GameObject Door_R = GameObject.Find("Door_R");
	GameObject DoorOpen; //Create a Game Object variable called Door_R
	OpenableDoor door; //Door is an OpenableDoor variable type based on the existing OpenableDoor script?
	public bool spawnOnce = false;
	
	//public GameObject Room_Prefab_Reference; 
	//Room_Prefab myPrefab;
	
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		
		
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
		
		DoorOpen = GameObject.Find("Door_L"); //Unity looks for a GameObject called "Door_R" in my hierarchy and makes the Door_R variable equal that.
		
		door = DoorOpen.GetComponent<OpenableDoor>(); //Door Variable = *Name of the GameObject in the hierarchy or the GameObject/Variable with that data*.GetComponent<*Script on said object I want to access*>() 
		
		if(door.open == true){
			if(!spawnOnce) {
				Instantiate (Room_Prefab, transform.position, transform.localRotation);
				Debug.Log("New room!");
				spawnOnce = true;
			}
		}
		else if (door.opening == false) {
		
			Debug.Log("No new room... :( ");
			spawnOnce = false;		
			}
	
		}

Hi try altering these lines as show below

From

 if(door.open == true){
if(!spawnOnce) {
Instantiate (Room_Prefab, transform.position, transform.localRotation);
Debug.Log("New room!");
spawnOnce = true;
}

To

 if(door.open == true){
if(!spawnOnce) {
spawnOnce = true;
Instantiate (Room_Prefab, transform.position, transform.localRotation);
Debug.Log("New room!");

}

and please do check if **door.open** remains true at all times
