How to use FindGameObjectsWithTag on List

I want to store some gameobjects on a list using FindGameObjectsWithTag method. Currently i am creating a temporary array to return from the method, and then copy each elements individually.

Is there any other way where I don't need to create a temporary array?

Thanks.

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class Test : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.     private GameObject[] enemy;
8.     public List<GameObject> enemies;
9.    
10.     void Start()
11.     {
12.         enemy = new GameObject[10];
13.     }
14.  
15.  
16.     void Update()
17.     {
18.         if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire"))
19.         {
20.             Debug.Log("Spawning...");
21.             FindEnemy();
22.         }
23.     }
24.  
25.     void FindEnemy()
26.     {
27.         enemy = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Enemy");
28.         foreach (GameObject e in enemy)
29.         {
30.             enemies.Add(e);
31.         }
32.     }
33.  
34. }
35.  

 

What is this for?

And what is this for in your script?

Because you're trying to load a list of game objects in a variable called enemy. You really need to work on the naming.

You can add another collection to your lists and arrays with the AddRange method. So in theory the

Code (CSharp):

1. enemies.AddRange(GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Enemy"));

should work as well.

 

Thanks Man, That worked
