Control current player not all of them.

I'm making moving platform that move back and forth until the player jumps on them. then they stop. This script works fine, except the fact that all the platforms are on the same prefab, so if one stops they all stop. and once i jump off they all move. How could i make it so only one stops when i jump on it without making multiple prefabs?

 

Post the code that makes them stop.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class Collide : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     void OnCollisionEnter (Collision col)
7.     {
8.         if(col.gameObject.name == "Sphere")
9.         {
10.             Debug.Log("Hit");
11.             growingFloor.onTop =false;
12.         }
13.     }
14. }
15.  

if the OnTop statement is true they move, if it's false they dont.

 

Try swapping out the

Code (csharp):

1. col.gameObject.name

for

Code (csharp):

1. col.transform.tag

I'm not 100% certain but it could be that it's grabbing all Objects with that Name, I know setting it to tag might not make a difference but the amount of times something this small has helped is strange. If not mind showing us the code for the platforms?

 

Let me guess: growingFloor is a class, onTop is a static variable within it?

That's why it's affecting everything: your platforms all reference a single, global variable.

You want to make that variable non-static, and use

Code (csharp):

1. col.gameObject.GetComponent<growingFloor>().onTop = false;

This will make it only affect the one object that you've collided with.
