respawn delay

Questions & Answers
1

here’s my player’s health script for my splitscreen shooter I want to add a respawn delay, how do I disable the player, wait for three seconds, then enable it before transforming to spawnpoint position?

var PointCube : Transform;
var spawneffect : Transform;
var SpawnPoint : Transform;
var respawn : boolean = false;
var health:float = 90;

function Damage(dmg:float){
health -= dmg;
}

function Update (){
if(health <=0){

Instantiate (PointCube,transform.position,transform.rotation);

transform.position = SpawnPoint.position;

Instantiate (spawneffect,transform.position,transform.rotation);

var audio: AudioSource = GetComponent.();
audio.Play();
audio.Play(44100);

health += 100;
}

}

The way i do a spawn delay in my game is like this.

when the player’s hp hits 0, we wait 10 seconds ( your case 3 )

function Update ( ){
playerHealth();
}

function playerHealth (){
if(health == 0){
yield WaitForSeconds ( 3 );

// Do stuff 

}
}
}

ok that’s pretty simple, if I added in a "set active false’ in there would it negate the delay, I want to add an effect of the player dissappearing before reappearing at the spawn point 3 seconds after ( reactivating it of course)
