Re-enabling a script OnTriggerExit

Questions & Answers
1

I have an enemy in my scene that when colliding with a slime gameobject on the ground, will have his script disabled, this works fine.

When the slime disappears though, I would like to re-enable his script so he can continue doing his thing. This only works 50% of the time though, the other times, the script will not re-enable and he continues to be stuck.

Anyone know what I’m overlooking here? Thanks

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class SwarmBehaviour : MonoBehaviour
{
    private Animator animate;
    private NavMeshAgent agent;

    public float distance;

    private Transform target; //the enemy's target 

    float moveSpeed = 3; //move speed 
    float rotationSpeed = 3; //speed of turning

    private Transform myTransform; //current transform data of this enemy
    public Vector3 finalPosition;

    private Rigidbody rb;

    void Awake()
    {
        myTransform = transform; //cache transform data for easy access/preformance 
    }

    // Use this for initialization
    void Start()
    {
        target = GameObject.FindWithTag("Caecus").transform; //target the player
        animate = GetComponent<Animator>();
        agent = GetComponent<NavMeshAgent>();
        InvokeRepeating("RandomPosition", 0.0f, 5.0f);
        rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        distance = Vector3.Distance(myTransform.position, target.transform.position);

        if (distance < 10)
        {
            agent.enabled = false;
            
            animate.SetBool("Moving", true);

            //rotate to look at the player 
            myTransform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(myTransform.rotation, Quaternion.LookRotation(target.position - myTransform.position), rotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime);

            //move towards the player
            myTransform.position += myTransform.forward * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;

            rb.isKinematic = false;

        }
        else
        {
            rb.isKinematic = true;
            agent.enabled = true;
            agent.destination = finalPosition;
            //PathRemaining();
        }
    }

    void RandomPosition()
    {
        Vector3 randomDirection = Random.insideUnitSphere * 10.0f;

        randomDirection += transform.position;
        finalPosition = randomDirection;
    }

    void OnTriggerEnter(Collider col)
    {
        if (col.gameObject.tag == "Slime")
        {
            animate.SetBool("Moving", false);
            GetComponent<SwarmBehaviour>().enabled = false;
        }
    }

    void OnTriggerExit(Collider col)
    {
        if (col.gameObject.tag == "Slime")
        {
            GetComponent<SwarmBehaviour>().enabled = true;
        }
    }

}

I tested this out, and it works:

 (GameObject.Find("GameObject").GetComponent("ScriptName") as MonoBehaviour).enabled = true;

So OnTriggerExit you can just put this in, and it’ll work!

void OnTriggerEnter(Collider col)
{
if (col.gameObject.tag == “Slime”)
{
animate.SetBool(“Moving”, false);
GetComponent().enabled = false;
}
}
Else
{
GetComponent().enabled = true;
}

Sorry haven’t code in a couple of months but this is just from the top of my head see if this code helps
