OnBecameVisible not working (746470)

Unity Engine
1

Hello,

I am making a simple side scrolling game where I have some enemies that I want to start moving towards the player when they become visible on the screen. I am trying to use OnBecameVisible to start them moving but even when they are off screen, they start moving as soon as the game starts.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong because I have OnBecameInvisible to destroy them when they go off the screen and that works perfectly.

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

public class Enemy_AI : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField]
    private float _enemySpeed;

    void Start()
    {
        _enemySpeed = 7.0f;
        enabled = false;
    }

    void Update()
    {
        Movement();
    }

    private void Movement()
    {
        if (enabled == true)
        {
            transform.Translate(Vector3.left * _enemySpeed * Time.deltaTime);
        }
    }

    void OnBecameInvisible()
    {
        Destroy(gameObject);
    }

    void OnBecameVisible()
    {
        enabled = true;
    }
}

Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

Many Thanks,

John

Hello again,

Turns out it does work, but I didn’t realise that the Scene view is also considered when playing. I incorrectly assumed that it would only consider what is visible in the Game view.

Many Thanks,
