need help with script

Unity Engine

Hello, i try to make charakter making script. To change robes for example… this is the script:

var shirt : Transform[];
private var currentShirt : int;
var top : Transform; //vieta kur turetu but marskineliai
var change = false;

function Update()
{
   var object : shirt[currentShirt];
   
   if(change)
   {
      Instantiate (object, top.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
      change = false;
   }
}

function OnGUI()
{
   if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,50,30),"Previous"))
   {
      currentShirt--;
      change = true;
   }
   else if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,70,50,30),"Next"))
   {
      currentShirt++;
      change = true;
   }
}

and i have error in this line: var object : shirt[currentShirt];
error: Assets/Changer.js(8,27): UCE0001: ‘;’ expected. Insert a semicolon at the end.

Any ideas?

The line “var object : shirt[currentShirt];” is not correct syntax.

Were you maybe trying to do this intead?
var object : Transform = shirt[currentShirt];

OK Thanks its working. But did you know how to atach created object to “top” ?

can some one help me?

Couple of things. When changing objects, you first want to destroy the object that is there. I would use the object variable to house the current shirt, the % sign will help in constraining your choice to the bounds of the array.

In my example code, I used the Start function to initialize the shirt to a random shirt in the array.

Hope this helps

var shirt : Transform[];
var top : Transform;
private var currentShirt : int=-1;
private var change = false;
private var object : Transform;

function Start()
{
	currentShirt=Mathf.Floor(Random.value * shirt.length);
	change=true;
}

function Update()
{
   if(change)
   {
		if(object!=null)Destroy(object.gameObject);
		object=Instantiate (shirt[currentShirt], top.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
		change = false;
   }
}

function OnGUI()
{
   if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,50,30),"Previous"))
   {
      currentShirt--;
      change = true;
   }
   else if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,70,50,30),"Next"))
   {
      currentShirt++;
      change = true;
   }
   currentShirt=currentShirt % shirt.length;
}

can you explain me some things?

var shirt : Transform[];
var top : Transform;
private var currentShirt : int=-1;
private var change = false;
private var object : Transform;

function Start()
{
	currentShirt=Mathf.Floor(Random.value * shirt.length); // that does it mean
	change=true;
}

function Update()
{
   if(change)
   {
		if(object!=null)Destroy(object.gameObject); //what do that object!=null
		object=Instantiate (shirt[currentShirt], top.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
		change = false;
   }
}

function OnGUI()
{
   if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,50,30),"Previous"))
   {
      currentShirt--;
      change = true;
   }
   else if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,70,50,30),"Next"))
   {
      currentShirt++;
      change = true;
   }
   currentShirt=currentShirt % shirt.length; //WTF "%" ? what it means
}

thanks for script :slight_smile:

P.S. and how to parent that shit to top (empty game object)

7

theShirt.transform.parent = top;

8

Assets/NewBehaviourScript.js(19,23): BCE0019: ‘transform’ is not a member of ‘UnityEngine.Transform[ ]’.

I changed object.transform.parent = top;

and working

9

object.transform.parent = top.transform;

I said “theShirt”, not “shirt”, as in, the specifically targeted shirt. Glad you got it working.

By the way, don’t use the variable name “object”; it’s very easy to confuse that with the type “Object” (or “object” in C#)
