Official 2D Roguelike: Q&A

7 years later, I'm still using this tutorial, so thanks for writing it

Probably because this is 7 years old, I'm struggling sometimes. For whoever needs to see this:

Using Unity 2019.4.22f1, at level generation, step 2, video at 3:01, pressing play does not work and the console shows errors:

• Problem: a lot of "already defines member" errors.
  • Solution: remove the "Assets/_Complete_game"
  • Youtube comment ref
• Problem: "type or namespace name 'BoardManager' could not be found" error.
  • Solution: add "using Completed;" to the top of BoardManager.cs and GameManager.cs
  • Youtube comment ref

 

I tried to implemet your solution, but it didn't work for me.
I solved it like this:
In the MovingObject script set variable isMoving as public

public bool isMoving;

And in the GameManager script, in the MoveEnemies coroutine I wait for all enemies to finish moving:

Code (CSharp):

1. private IEnumerator MoveEnemiesCoroutine()
2.     {
3.         isEnemiesMoving = true;
4.         yield return new WaitForSeconds(turnDelay);
5.  
6.         if (enemies.Count == 0)
7.         {
8.             yield return new WaitForSeconds(turnDelay);
9.         }
10.  
11.         for (int i = 0; i < enemies.Count; i++)
12.         {
13.             enemies[i].MoveEnemy();
14.             yield return new WaitForSeconds(enemies[i].moveTime);
15.  
16.             while (enemies[i].isMoving)
17.             {
18.                 yield return null;
19.             }
20.         }
21.         isEnemiesMoving = false;
22.         isPlayerTurn = true;
23.     }

 

Also with this thing (weird level count and double game initialization)
The way I solved it is:
Added new empty scene 'preloader' with a script which loads your game scene. In my case it's named 'app'

Code (CSharp):

1. public class Preloader : MonoBehaviour
2. {
3.     void Awake()
4.     {
5.         SceneManager.LoadScene("app");
6.     }
7. }

And in the GameManager I removed InitGame game method from Awake. Its left only in the OnSceneLoaded method

 

Hi everyone! I have problem in step 10-11.
When i finished Enemy script I have an error in Unity . What I can do with it?
Assets/MyWay/Scripts/Enemy.cs(23,34): error CS1061: 'GameManager' does not contain a definition for 'AddEnemyToList' and no accessible extension method 'AddEnemyToList' accepting a first argument of type 'GameManager' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

 

My player is unable to move more than one step because I have two boards loading when I start the game and two InitGame() in my GameManager.cs. I tried implementing the solutions that people mentioned earlier on this forum (adding the
OnLevelFinishedLoading() and level increment) but commenting out the InitGame() in Awake() gives me a completely black screen with no boards loaded and commenting out the Awake() in OnLevelFinishedLoading still loads two boards. My game also doesn't get rid of the "Day 1" levelImage by itself, I have to manually uncheck it on Unity. Does anybody have any idea on how I could fix these issues?

Hi,
I just managed to make my game work by following the tutorial and doing research on the things that didn't work. There were quite a number of issues in the new version of Unity.
However, I do have three issues I do not understand:
1. Sometimes when the game loads, the food count goes down automatically and I have a hard time moving the player. Restarting helps.
2. I tried building for WebGL to upload the game to Simmer. But the game that is created does not work. Everything seems blurry and the player doesn't move. Not sure if this is because I added the touch controls from video 14? I thought that part was disabled when I switch back to Windows platform. I did notice though, that the #if and #else statements from the videos didn't become pink but remained blue, so maybe I broke something?
3. Is the player supposed to walk on the same tile the enemy is on? They overlap in my game.

My code is here: https://github.com/kassandra79/roguelike

 

I'm using unity 5.3 and I'm seeing this behavior currently.
