HI

You probalby want to create an enemyscript and check if the enemy is hit by the sword. If it’s hit 5 times you can destroy the enemy.

try to attach this into your enemyscript (not tested)

var _collider : BoxCollider;
var health : float = 5;

function Start()
{
   _collider = GetComponent(BoxCollider);
}

function OnCollisionEnter(col : Collision)
{
   if(col.gameObject.tag == "Sword")
   {
      health--;
      if(health <= 0)
         Destroy(this.gameObject);

   }
}

Note: you will need to add a tag (Sword) to the sword. And if you are not using a BoxCollider on the enemy, replace “BoxCollider” with your collidertype. (You will need a collider on the enemy just to make it clear)

  • Make a variable that keeps track of how much health the enemy has
  • Give the variable to the enemy, dependent on collision with sword (might I suggest that the enemy just isn’t detecting collision?)
  • Make the enemy destroy itself if health variable==0.

I didn’t add code because it seems that you can code yourself. I can add code if you want me to, though.
