Changing Sprite in Script

I have an object (TestObj) and I want to change its sprite from sprite1 to sprite2 when it's clicked on. How would I code that in C#?

 

Place both sprites in the gameobject and then turn them on/off as needed with SetActive();

 

I'm not entirely sure how to do that.

 

You want to do this?

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.     public Sprite sprite1, sprite2; // Sprites
3.     private SpriteRenderer spriteRenderer;
4.  
5.     void Start () {
6.         spriteRenderer = gameObject.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer> ();
7.     }
8.  
9.     void OnMouseDown () {
10.         if (spriteRenderer.sprite == sprite1) {
11.             spriteRenderer.sprite = sprite2;
12.         } else {
13.             spriteRenderer.sprite = sprite1;
14.         }
15.     }
16.  

 

Create a new game object.
Drag your sprites into that gameobject in the hierarchy.

Create a script along these lines:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. public class ClickToChange : MonoBehaviour {
3.  
4.     public GameObject sprite_1;
5.     public GameObject sprite_2;
6.  
7.     void Awake()
8.     {
9.         // just to ensure a clean start.
10.         sprite_1.SetActive(true);
11.         sprite_2.SetActive(false);
12.     }
13.  
14.     void OnMouseDown()
15.     {
16.         sprite_2.SetActive(!sprite_2.activeSelf);
17.         sprite_1.SetActive(!sprite_1.activeSelf);
18.     }
19. }
20.  

You can then place your script and collider on that game object, and the add the references in the inspector.


Not very fancy, but will do the trick.

Cheers.

 

Oh! I completely forgot that I could do that despite doing a tutorial on it whoops

Thanks.
