Hi, guys. I think it might be pretty easy but I am a bit stuck. I wan to set a timer to run when the player enters a room and stop when the player goes out of the room. I want to store this duration somewhere. Any idea on how to approach that?

C#:

using UnityEngine;
public class YourScriptName : MonoBehaviour
{
	public enum ByType {ByName,ByTag}
	public ByType byType = ByType.ByTag;
	public string typeName = "Player";
	public float timer = 0;
	public void OnTriggerStay (Collider other)
	{
		if(byType == ByType.ByName && other.name == typeName)timer += Time.deltaTime;
		if(byType == ByType.ByTag && other.tag == typeName)timer += Time.deltaTime;
	}
}

-JavaScript:

public enum ByType {ByName,ByTag}
public var byType : ByType = ByType.ByTag;
public var typeName : String = "Player";
public var timer : float = 0;
public function OnTriggerStay (other : Collider)
{
	if(byType == ByType.ByName && other.name == typeName)timer += Time.deltaTime;
	if(byType == ByType.ByTag && other.tag == typeName)timer += Time.deltaTime;
}

Put This Script On A GameObject With Box Collider, And Enable (Is Trigger) On The Box Collider And Set The Size And Position In The Room, And Done.
Hope It Helps.
