[C#] Creating list on runtime while check if it returns null

Hi guys,

im trying to create a list of all the childs, and while it is created i want to check if the list turns out to be null.

Take a look please:

Code (CSharp):

1. void Update () {
2.         if (GM.gameprogress == activeAt) {
3.             active = true;
4.             int i = 0;
5.  
6.             List<GameObject> children = new List<GameObject>();
7.             foreach (Transform child in transform) {
8.                 if (child.gameObject.layer == 27) {
9.                     child.gameObject.SetActive (true);
10.  
11.                     children.Add(child.gameObject);
12.  
13.                 } else {
14.                     child.gameObject.SetActive (false);
15.                 }
16.  
17.  
18.             }
19. //THIS PART DOES NOT WORK
20.             if(children == null){
21.                 active = false;
22.                 GM.gameprogress += 1;
23.             }
24. //
25.         }
26.     }

So in my Game I have a gameobject with lets say 2 childs, as soon as those childs are destroyed the list should return null to set the gameprogress +1 stuff.

Can anyone enlighten me?

THank you Guys!

 

just because you dont have children doesnt mean your existence is void. you should check the children count children.count <= 0. or check if all children are null.

 

Excellent!! It does work!

Thank you very much.
