How to spawn a new prefab when the last one was destroyed??

Questions & Answers

UNITY 2D C#

I have a script. When my player is alive, the enemy manager counts down the time and then creates an opponent.

I would like the EnemyManager to respawn a new opponent, but only when the last one is destroyed.
So, if the created opponent (being a prefab) dies, EnemyManager should start counting the time again and if a certain number of time passes, he should generate another opponent.

Any help?

My script:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class SpawnManagerWithTime : MonoBehaviour
{
	public GameObject[] prefab;
	public PlayerBehaviour behaviourscript;
	
	public float minTime;
	public float maxTime;

	float time = 0f;
	private float spawnTime;

	private int randomPrefabs;


	void Start () 
	{
		spawnTime = Random.Range(minTime, maxTime);
		randomPrefabs = Random.Range (0,2);
	}

	void Update()
	{
		time += Time.deltaTime;

		//Check if its the right time to spawn the object
		if(!behaviourscript.dead & time >= spawnTime ){

			Instantiate(prefab[randomPrefabs], transform.position, Quaternion.identity);

			time = 0f;

		}
	}
}

Instead of checking if it is dead, you should do it when it dies, instead of setting a dead variable you can Invoke() the function in x milliseconds.

Invoke(“SpawnEnemy”,spawnTime);

and is you disable and move the enemy then Enable it, it is more performant.

There was no subject. Good advice for everyone, a better option is to disable and enable the SpawnManager object from the Player object :slight_smile:
