Does anyone know a possible way for an animation that makes it so when a button gets clicked text pops up above the button that says [Clicked]. It must fade away after 3 seconds and it continues to go up. (The text will move up.)
Pretend like this is how it would look
Clicked but faded away
Clicked
Clicked
Clicked
Button
(Unity Using C#)
How about using a Prefab for this?
You'd create a Prefab with a root object and a text label as a child. Then you animate the text label upwards and fading out over three seconds using the Unity animation window.
On button click, you instantiate the prefab, make it a child of the button, and position it at the same position as your button AND auto-destroy it after 3 seconds.
Here's a code example, pretending that your prefab name is "myAnimatedText"
GameObject animatedButtonText = Instantiate(Resources.Load("myAnimatedText"), transform);
animatedButtonText.transform.position = transform.position;
Destroy(animatedButtonText, 3.0f);

So, I have this game that I created and there's a button that whenever I clicked the button the scene will change but my problem is whenever I click the scene button change it will go back from the start of the stage. I kind of want it for example in scene 1 I already moved into the middle of the stage, so when I click the button scene change, in scene 2 my player is already in the middle of the stage just exactly in the scene 1 and not go back to the start of the level.
This is something called State-Saving. In your case, you want to save only the position of the player. In the function you're calling to change scene, save the position as in:
public static vector3 TempPosition;
TempPosition = player.transform.position;
And reassign it to the player when the scene loads.
I made some edit to Snake&Ladder game where a question pop-up when player reach head of snake or bottom of the ladder. I manage to get the pop-up question appear but I can't find the function, not even the able to search the function.
I put the button code under transform position code when the player move after reach head of snake or bottom of the ladder.
Am I not allowed to separate button code from other button code in Unity?
How to make a button invalid or hide when the program runs to a certain step.
method 1:
Command1.Enabled = False button command is disabled.
Command1.Visible = False button command hidden.
Method 2:
//disable
this.GetComponent().enabled= false;
//disable and gray
this.GetComponent().interactable = false;
Hope it helps you.
I'm trying to get Interaction setup in my scene for a colour memory puzzle game in Unity.
I've managed to get the scene changing when the player interacts with a button on a Canvas, so I'm trying to somehow replicate that through a puzzle.
The player can trigger the colour randomizer to display random colours (out of 4), then the player will need to 'press' the buttons on the panel in the correct order to proceed.
So far, I have a canvas overlapping the buttons so the player can interact with them. Each button has a box collider over the button element, so when the mouse is clicked or the trigger button is pressed on the Oculus controller, it should register a button press. But as soon as the hand comes into contact with the 'collider box' the following NullReferenceException Shows;
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Valve.VR.SteamVR_Action_Boolean_Source.UpdateValue()
I'm trying to figure out a way to reference each 'box' in code to that it knows its that specific colour being pressed. The code is there to accept keyboard input, just having trouble with the VR element.
In my scene, I have this set-up:
Game Controller
Level Controller
Main Camera
Event System
Canvas
Player
PlayerCanvas (Render Mode is World Space)
Button
I set the PlayerCanvas into the same width and height of the button. And both of them are just small. I put Debug.Log to check everytime I press the button. But somehow, it triggers the button even if I click way off the screen. Can help to explain why is this happening. Thanks!
Note: I'm trying to add a button beside the Player so that even if the Player moves, the button will just follow.
I think your hierarchy is wrong.
Try something like
Game Controller
Level Controller
Main Camera
Player
Event System
Canvas (Screen Space - Overlay)
Button
Not sure what Player is, but I'm sure on my hierarchy Event System and Canvas are on the same level. And every button is son of Canvas. Not sure you can make multiple Cavas (you should not need it anyway).
I recently thought about adding a InGame Button to my Game. It's not a GUI or UI Button, it's a Block, added to a Wall for example.
Dummy Code:
OnTriggerEnter(c:Collider) {
if(c.gameObject.tag =="Player")
{
//Text = "E to interact!"
if(key.pressed("e")
{
//Connect the Button to a specific Block, play a Animation
}
}
}
So how do I connect a specific Block to the Button, and if I press e, Play the Animation just on the specific block? Please keep in mind that I'm new in Unity.
Thanks for helping out!
I don't know if you already managed to create your animation, so I-ll explain from scratch. When in the editor, select your Door and press ctrl+6 to open the animation window. From here you can animate your block. When you will be done creating the animation, your block object will have a new script attached to it: an animator. You can see the animator state machine in the animator window
These are two different things:
Animation: Defines a single animation (translation, rotation, change of color, ...)
Animator: defines when an animation occurs for the corresponding gameobject. An animator can have variables (for example, a bool) that define which is the next animation to be played
Any object can have an animator (your button can have one to move when it is pressed. You door can have another one to open / close)
For instance, in your button animator, you should have three states: Idle, Press, UnPress.
The state Press will contain the animation "press" with speed 1. The state UnPress will contain the animation "press with speed -1
Then, still in the animator window, You will create links between Idle and the two other states and add a trigger condition called "OnPress" (for example)
You can do the same to animate your door
In your Button code, you will then write
public Animator Door; // In the editor, give a reference to your door. It must have an Animator script for this to work
OnTriggerEnter(c:Collider) {
if(c.gameObject.tag =="Player")
{
//Text = "E to interact!"
if(key.pressed("e")
{
GetComponent<Animator>().SetTrigger("OnPress"); // The button's animator goes to "pressed" state
Door.SetTrigger("Open"); // The door's animator goes to "open" state
}
}
}
Then you could add another trigger to unpress the button
One more thing: When you say "Connect the button to the block", I feel like you misunderstood something: Your button script should be already added to the block in the editor
