Hello guys, i’m struggling with something.
after my player loses all his lives, i want him to restart the level with a delay
i did add a yield but i keep getting an error i don’t know what to do

this is the error

Assets/Scripts/PlayerController.cs(56,14): error CS1624: The body of `PlayerController.SetCountText()' cannot be an iterator block because `void' is not an iterator interface type

and here is my script

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour
{

	public float speed;
	public GUIText countText;
	public GUIText winText;
	public GUIText LiveText;
	public GUIText LoseText;
	public AudioClip LoseAudio;
	public AudioClip LiveSound;
	public AudioClip PickUpSound;
	public AudioClip WinAudio; 
	private int PickUpCount;
	public int LiveCount;


	void start ()
	{
		PickUpCount = 0;
		LiveCount = 3;
		SetCountText ();
		winText.text = "";
	}

	void FixedUpdate ()
	{
		float moveHorizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
		float moveVertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
		
		Vector3 movement = new Vector3(moveHorizontal, 0.0f, moveVertical);
		
		rigidbody.AddForce(movement * speed * Time.deltaTime);
	}

	void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
	{
		if(other.gameObject.tag == "PickUp")
		{
			AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint(PickUpSound, new Vector3(5, 2, 2));
			other.gameObject.SetActive(false);
			PickUpCount = PickUpCount + 1;
			SetCountText ();
	    }
		if(other.gameObject.tag == "Obstacle")
		{
			AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint(LiveSound, new Vector3(5, 2, 2));
			other.gameObject.SetActive(false);
			LiveCount = LiveCount - 1;
			SetCountText ();
		}
	}
	
	void SetCountText()
	{
			countText.text = "Blocks: " + PickUpCount.ToString ();
			if (PickUpCount >= 16) {
					AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint (WinAudio, new Vector3 (5, 2, 2));
					winText.text = ("WE MADE IT!");
			}	
			{
			LiveText.text = "Lives: " + LiveCount.ToString ();
			if (LiveCount == 0) {	
					AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint (LoseAudio, new Vector3 (5, 2, 2));
					LoseText.text = ("TRY AGAIN BRO");
					LiveCount = 0;
					yield return new WaitForSeconds(5f);
					Application.LoadLevel("level 2");
			}		
			}
	}	
}

i’d love to get some help here

if (LiveCount == 0) {
AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint (LoseAudio, new Vector3 (5, 2, 2));
LoseText.text = (“TRY AGAIN BRO”);
LiveCount = 0;
StartCoroutine(RestartLevel);
}

IEnumerator RestartLevel() {
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(5f);
    Application.LoadLevel("level 2");
}

The basic reason you are getting that error is because you are making your coroutine of return type void which is not allowed. Usually coroutine should have a proper return type like IEnumerator.

But I’ve restructured your code to have a separate coroutine altogether. If you want you can make the type of your SetCountText() function as IEnumerator instead of void.
