how to kill an emeny?

Questions & Answers

I want to kill an enemy with a certain number of shots and to give a score afterwards.

I have 2 scripts:

KillMegaloth

  • kills in 1 shot

  • gives correct score

    public GameObject objectToDestroy;
    public GameObject effect;

    public int scoreValue = 100;
    //public AudioClip DeathAudio;

    AudioSource enemyAudio;

    void OnTriggerEnter (Collider col)
    {
    if (col.gameObject.tag == “Bullet”)

     {
 	Instantiate (effect, objectToDestroy.transform.position, objectToDestroy.transform.rotation);

 	ScoreManager.score += scoreValue; 

 	Destroy (objectToDestroy, 1f);

 	Debug.Log ("Megaloth destroyed");
 }

    }

EnemyManager

  • kills in 2 shots

  • takes away life

  • gives wrong score

  • the effect upon death is created 34 times in quick succession

    public int MaxHealth = 100;
    public int currentHealth;
    public int scoreValue;

    public GameObject objectToDestroy;
    public GameObject effect;

    // Use this for initialization
    void Start () {
    currentHealth = MaxHealth;
    }

    public void TakeDamage(int damage)
    {
    currentHealth -= damage;
    Debug.Log (“Megaloth injured”);
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update () {

     if (currentHealth == 0) 
 {
 	Instantiate (effect, objectToDestroy.transform.position, objectToDestroy.transform.rotation);

 	ScoreManager.score += scoreValue; 

 	Destroy (objectToDestroy, 1f); // NB: When the number of frames before destruction is removed, the Megaloth disappears right away and only 1 death fire is created. 

 	Debug.Log ("Megaloth destroyed");
 }

    }
    }

I’m at a loss as to what could be going wrong, any suggestions?

Hi, you set a timer to destroy your enemy so for 1 second the condition currentHealt == 0 will still be true and will repeat increasing the score. Use a bool to know if he is already death.

 void Update () {
     if (currentHealth == 0 && isDeath == false) 
     {
         Instantiate (effect, objectToDestroy.transform.position, objectToDestroy.transform.rotation);
         ScoreManager.score += scoreValue; 
         Destroy (objectToDestroy, 1f); // NB: When the number of frames before destruction is removed, the Megaloth disappears right away and only 1 death fire is created. 
         Debug.Log ("Megaloth destroyed");

         isDeath = true;
     }
