Change input

Code (JavaScript):

1.  
2.         void Update()
3.         {
4.                 if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S))
5.                 {
6.                         m_TankOneActive = !m_TankOneActive;
7.                         SetTanksActive();
8.                 }
9.         }
10.  
11.  

This is a part of my code its working fine, but I wanna change the input to a GUI Button in the canvas.
I tried around with GetButtonDown("NameOfMyButton") but it does not work. My programming skills are bit low, so I hope somebody could help me.

 

You dont work with GUI buttons like that. If you look at the GUI button you will see there is an OnClick property. You need to assign the method you want to be called there.

UI Button information

 

Unfortunately is there no possibility to choose any function like on my other Buttons. I guess the reason is that there is no Function in my script. Does anybody know what I should add or change in my C# script ?

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. public class SwitchWithMouse : MonoBehaviour
3. {
4.     private GameObject m_Tanks;
5.     private Transform m_TankOne;
6.     private Transform m_TankTwo;
7.     private bool m_TankOneActive = true;
8.     void Start()
9.     {
10.         m_Tanks = GameObject.Find("Tanks");
11.         foreach (Transform t in m_Tanks.transform)
12.         {
13.             if (t.name == "TankOne")
14.                 m_TankOne = t;
15.             if (t.name == "TankTwo")
16.                 m_TankTwo = t;
17.         }
18.         SetTanksActive();
19.     }
20.     void Update()
21.     {
22.         //if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S))
23.         if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
24.         {
25.             m_TankOneActive = !m_TankOneActive;
26.             SetTanksActive();
27.         }
28.     }
29.     private void SetTanksActive()
30.     {
31.         m_TankOne.gameObject.SetActive(m_TankOneActive);
32.         m_TankTwo.gameObject.SetActive(!m_TankOneActive);
33.     }
34. }

 

Make the SetTanksActive() method public and it should show up in the event inspector.

 

put lines 25 and 26 into a public function, call the function from where line 25 is now... call the same function in the OnClick event in the button's inspector.

Making any code into a stand alone function is really just a copy/paste

 

Thank you I did it, see you in the stars
