I need to convert my old Java script "trail system" into a C#

hello;

I need to know what a C# script of a "trail system" that I use to use in my games, that was a Java script and I cant use it any more because Unity is no longer using or allowing Java script,

the Java script looks like this;

#pragma strict

function Start () {
function OnTriggerStay(other: Collider) {
if (other.attachedRigidbody)
if (other.CompareTag ("T2")) {

other.attachedRigidbody.transform.LookAt(target);
}
}

it was a simple sysytem that I used to make a game object follow a trail system (like a way point) only it works on collision enter and tags and it was easy to set up and implicate as a trail system.

I do not know C# and I am having trouble with the documention to try to convert my Java script into a C#

if any one would like to take on the task of helping me convert my Java script "trail system" into a C# script,
I would be forever greatfull...

thak you

1) USE CODE TAGS:
https://forum.unity.com/threads/using-code-tags-properly.143875/

2) This couldn't be the original js code since you have a OnTriggerStay method nested inside a Start method.

 

I am not a coder and I tried but could not learn but I can copy and paste well enough and I understand the machanics of coding, and I use to work only in java script which I understood but I am unable to figure out C# in order to make C# work, thats why I am here asking how to conveert my java script into C#

its a simple script that I use a lot in my games and now I am unable to use it

Try Unity's conversion tool. Never tried it myself as I had no reason to, so I can't really offer support.

 

here is quick conversion i did for you.

Code (CSharp):

1. void Start () {
2.  
3. }
4. void OnTriggerStay(Collider other)
5. {
6.     if (other.gameObject.GetComponent<Rigidbody>())
7.     {
8.         if (other.gameObject.CompareTag("T2"))
9.         {
10.             other.attachedRigidbody.transform.LookAt(target);
11.         }
12.     }
13. }

 

Don't forget you also need to do explicit class declarations, UnityScript allowed implicit class declarations.

 

no idea what you mean by that

 

In C# you need

Code (CSharp):

1. public class MyScript : MonoBehaviour {
2. }

In UnityScript you didn't need this at all.

 

thank you very much,

I have put it in mono-behavior and I have two errors;

Code (csharp):

1.  "void start"
2. and "target"
3. [code]
4.  
5. I cant work any more tonight,
6. but thats a start and I can experiment with it and see what happens and I will let you know
7. if I can get it to work
8.  
9. thanks again

thank you, I have been wondering and looking for Unity to have such a conversion tool.
I am going to miss Java enen though I knew Unity would get rid of it sooner or later
