    Hi,
    I've made my own sidescroller and also added a script that shows the time spent on playing.
    I want the game to end after 120 seconds and then load my gameover "Spiel vorbei" (german) scene. My question now is, how do I make it so that the scene is loaded as soon as the 120 seconds have passed?
    Code (CSharp):
    1. using System.Collections;
    2. using System.Collections.Generic;
    3. using UnityEngine;
    4.  
    5. public class PunkteAnzeigen : MonoBehaviour {
    6.     //öffentliche Felder für die beiden Steuerelemente zur Ausgabe
    7.     public UnityEngine.UI.Text timeLabel;
    8.     public UnityEngine.UI.Text pointsLabel ;
    9.  
    10.     float start = 0;
    11.     int points = 0;
    12.  
    13.     void Start () {
    14.         //die Startposition sichern
    15.         start = transform.position.x;
    16.     }
    17.  
    18.     void Update () {
    19.         int timeOut;
    20.         //die Distanz ermitteln
    21.         //dabei benutzen wir den absoluten Wert
    22.         points = (int) Mathf.Abs(transform.position.x -
    23.             start);
    24.         //durch die Konvertierung gehen Nachkommastellen
    25.         //verloren
    26.         timeOut = (int) Time.time;
    27.         //und nun ausgeben
    28.         timeLabel.text = timeOut.ToString();
    29.         pointsLabel.text = points.ToString();
    30.     }
    31. }
    32.

    Code (csharp):
    1. private float timeUntilSceneEnds = 120f;
    2. private float timeWhenSceneEnds;
    3.  
    4. void Start ()
    5. {
    6.     timeWhenSceneEnds = Time.time + timeUntilSceneEnds;
    7. }
    8.  
    9. void Update ()
    10. {
    11.     if (timeWhenSceneEnds <= Time.time)
    12.     {
    13.         SceneManager.LoadScene("GameOverScene");
    14.     }
    15. }
    You can also do this with a coroutine, but doing it in update is generally the easiest way (especially for beginners, not sure if that is you) to understand. Using Invoke would also be another way of doing it.

    You can load a scene using SceneManager.LoadScene (https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/SceneManagement.SceneManager.LoadScene.html)
    You could either use Time.time as you already did and just make use of an if, example:
    (For this way best look at the code Joe provided in his reply)
    Code (CSharp):
    1. if (Time.time >= 120){
    2.     SceneManager.LoadScene(sceneName);
    3. }
    Or you could make a Coroutine (https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Coroutine.html) that waits for 120 seconds (https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/WaitForSeconds.html) and then does that. For Example:
    Code (CSharp):
    1. void Start () {
    2.     //die Startposition sichern
    3.     start = transform.position.x;
    4.  
    5.     //die Coroutine starten
    6.     StartCoroutine(LoadSceneAfterSeconds);
    7. }
    8.  
    9. IEnumerator LoadSceneAfterSeconds() {
    10.     yield return new WaitForSeconds(120);
    11.     SceneManager.LoadScene(sceneName);
    12. }

    The above solutions will work well. Just thought I'd chime in with my goto solution for this kind of thing:

    https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/MonoBehaviour.Invoke.html

    Code (CSharp):
    1.     void Start()
    2.     {
    3.         Invoke("GameOver", 120);
    4.     }
    5.  
    6.     void GameOver()
    7.     {
    8.             SceneManager.LoadScene("Spiel vorbei");
    9.     }
    You can also use CancelInvoke("GameOver"); to stop this for any reason.
