For Loop is controlling all elements of an x[i] array

Hi there,

I have a scene that is basically a 360 panoramic viewer with some added functionality.

I am using circle image fills as progress bars. In some of the nodes, there are multiple other nodes to jump to. In my script:

variable for context: public Image[] loadingBarFloor;

Code (CSharp):

1.     //Start load countdown & loading animation
2.     void TriggerHotSpot(int hsNumber)
3.     {
4.         for (int i = 0; i < hotspots.Length; i++)
5.         {
6.             loadIcon.transform.localScale = new Vector3(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
7.             Debug.Log(loadTimer);
8.             transform.localScale = originalScale * 0.5f;
9.             loadTimer += Time.deltaTime / speed;
10.             loadingBarFloor[i].fillAmount = loadTimer / 2;
11.             loadingBarText[i].GetComponent<Text>().text = (loadTimer * 100).ToString("#") + "%";
12.             if (loadTimer >= 1.0f)
13.             {
14.                 loadTimer += loadScaleSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
15.                 StartCoroutine(ChangeNode(hsNumber));
16.                 loadingBarText[i].text = ("Done!");
17.             }
18.             loadingBarFloor[i].fillAmount = loadTimer;
19.         }
20.     }

I am seeing every progress bar fill instead of just the current one in the array. I only want the current image fill to happen.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

 

If you want to fill each bar one after the other, you need to make a coroutine that does that instead of this approach. This will start a coroutine for each element in the array all on the same frame. You likely want do something like this:

Code (csharp):

1. private IEnumerator LoadRoutine()
2. {
3.    for(int i = 0; i < hotspots.Length; i++)
4.    {
5.       float timer = 0;
6.       while(timer < 1.0f) // While the timer isn't done
7.       {
8.          loadingBarFloor[i].fillAmount = timer;
9.          yield return null;
10.          timer += Time.deltaTime * speedFactor;
11.       }
12.    }
13. }

That's not functional code, but hopefully gets the idea across.

 

Success, anyway a mod can delete this?
