Stop Keybind from repeating itself when going to next gameobject in Array.

Hey All,

I’m working on an ingame tutorial to give the player some info.
I’ve set it up so that everytime the player presses a certain key the array goes to the next gameobject.
However when I have to times the same keybind after each other it repeats the same keybind instead of waiting for me to press it again.

This is my script:

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

public class TutorialManager : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject popUps;
private int popUpIndex;

// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
    
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
    for (int i = 0; i < popUps.Length; i++)
    {
        if (i == popUpIndex)
        {
            popUps*.SetActive(true);*

}
else
{
popUps*.SetActive(false);*
}
if (popUpIndex == 0) //first sentence
{
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
popUpIndex++;
}
}
else if (popUpIndex == 1) //2nd sentence
{

}
else if (popUpIndex == 2) //3rd sentence
{
if (Input.GetButtonDown(“Inventory”))
{
popUpIndex++;
}
}
else if (popUpIndex == 3) //4th sentence
{
if (Input.GetButtonDown(“Inventory”))
{
popUpIndex++;
}
}
else if (popUpIndex == 4) //5th sentence
{
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
popUpIndex++;
}
}
}
}
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag(“Player”)) if (popUpIndex == 1)
{

popUpIndex++;
}
}
Anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks in advance!

Just don’t actually set your popup index until the end of the update method. Store what the index should be when you press the key, the after your big if/else block you can actually set the variable itself.
