I am not really new to Unity and C# (UnityScript), but I am new to 3d games, and this game is something like Granny by Dvloper, or Eyes by Paulina, or Dark Internet. So this AI script is really simple, but I dont know why but I can't fix the errors above, there were even more, but I could fix them. Please help me, I tried my best fixing them, but I couldn't. Plus I am 12, so I don't have so much expierence in C# ( I have 4 months of exp) but rather in JS ( 2 years ) and Java ( 8 months ).

Plus the last script "SawSoundController" is not written by me.

Any help is appreciated. Please don't comment on my english, if it is bad #NotEnglish

 

The first error points to the fact that the if statement is outside of any function/method, showing that you are new to all of this.
also, C# is not UnityScript, and UnityScript isn't a thing anymore.

I'd suggest you following more basic programming tutorials before delving into the realm of video games.

 

hi. can you or some one else help with my project. using unity 2018.2.3 and my screen reader jaws 2019 tells me gui.utility process: 32 bit and got a 64 bit, also in my visual studio 2017 community project tied to unity, says some thing about when i try to build, end of line or sintax error. can some one contact me via e-mail and help me out and if they can help. that would be great. thanks. or maybe the log file. thanks. ps: been trying to fix this one error in my unity, for a few weeks, for a school assignment. not to do it for me, but to help me how to fix this. maybe trying to install a 32 bit into 64 bit and have got android studio, but could not seem to add it to the external tools and the for java, there. any help. in australia, if any one here on the forum from australia, or new zealand, able to help me out.jdk fk

 

hi, got a unity error says gui.utility.process: 32 bit int and got unity 2018.2.3 64 bit, don't know why. if any one is in australia or new zealand, able to help. and also in the visual studio project, one error, says some thing about end of line or sintax. doing this for a school assignment. not to do it for me, but to help me to get it to build. been trying for weeks. driving me nuts. and maybe trying to install a 32 bit application into 64 bit. tried googling. do have android studio and the jdk but could not seem to attach that to the external editor, as totally blind and my screen reader jaws, able to not able to get to add the external tools, or editor. thanks.

 

Hi Sir, as I stated I am not new to Unity, and OK maybe I am weak at C#, but I am still learning. My first game was 2d and was made with JavaScript, because I am good at it. I have also used Java for many projects (Not in Unity) as I know it too, but C#, well I have been learning it for past 3 months, and when I was developing my first game, I used it for small things because I found out it to be more comfortable, but now as I am moving to a 3D game, I am using C# for my project and there were many errors but I fixed 80% of them.

I have learned all 3 languages by watching Youtube, i watch channels like Brackeys, Unity3dCollege, etc.. Plus it would be much more helpful if someone helps me, I am not even asking for a script, just wanted help in a new language, which seems more comfortable. Please help, that would be nice. Plus, thanks for telling that UnityScript is not C# and UnityScript isn't a thing anymore, atleast learned something new. Once again, I am not asking for a script but rather asking for help to fix errors in my script.

 

I can't figure out what you're saying, just a request can you fix script? Or atleast help me? If not, that's perfectly fine, then I guess I have to work on some other project, i guess..

Plus can you tell, is my AI script good? I wrote it on my own..

 

For your first issue //Assets/AI.cs(84,3): error CS1519: Unexpected symbol `if' in class, struct, or interface member declaration

it's because you've put your if statements outside of a method. Your method Update closes

Code (CSharp):

1. void Update()
2.     {
3.         float distance = Vector3.Distance(PlayerMove.playerPos, transform.position);
4.         if (distance <= losRadius)
5.         {
6.             CheckLOS();
7.         }
8.     } << -- Update method ends here
9.     if (nav.isActiveAndEnabled) << -- this if statement is not in a method
10.     {

Putting that in a method should fix a few errors.

but then you have this error: "Assets/AI.cs(111,16): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `:', expecting `;' or `}'"

That is because

Code (CSharp):

1.       else if (aiMemorizesPlayer == true && playerIsInLOS == false)
2.         {
3.             ChasePlayer(): <-- needs to be a semiColon ; ChasePlayer();
4.  
5.             StartCoroutine(AiMemory());
6.         }
7.     }

Then you have this error: "Assets/AI.cs(141,2): error CS1547: Keyword `void' cannot be used in this context"

That is because

Code (CSharp):

1.     void NoiseCheck()
2.     {
3.         float distance = Vector3.Distance(PlayerMove.playerPos, transform.position);
4.  
5.         if (distance <= noiseTravelDistance)
6.         {
7.             if (SawSoundController.OnCollisionEnter())
8.             {
9.                 noisePosition = PlayerMove.playerPos;
10.      
11.                 aiHeardPlayer = true;
12.             }
13.             else
14.             {
15.                 aiHeardPlayer = false;
16.      
17.                 canSpin = false;
18.             }
19.         }
20.     { < ---
21.     }

the bracket is there

Then this error : "Assets/AI.cs(141,23): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `(', expecting `,', `;', or `='"

That is because

Code (CSharp):

1.   void GoToNoisePosition() < -- You have no opening bracket "{"
2.         nav.setDestination(noisePosition);
3.  
4.         if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position, noisePosition) <= 5f && canSpin == true)

The last one is a pain, im tired, going to bed now. "Assets/AI.cs(209,2): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `{'. but fix your other errors and then look for similar typo issues.

Those error messages are really good, it tells you the script name, the line where the error is and the reason. Theyre all syntax errors, which are mistakes the are really easy to make

 

I can't believe I made such silly mistakes, it's just like my math's exam sheet, where I miss a number and lose my marks...

Thank you so much! You just made me not quit a project I started. I appreciate your help and I will try to make less typos and improve my knowledge of C#, thanks once again!

you're 12and have all time to learn

 

Hi sir! Even I know I am 12 and am left 68 years to live ( avg. 80 years lifespan for humans ), but even I have exams and can't focus all my time in learning C#, I need someone to help me or atleast teach me about syntax errors so, I atleast know the basics and what mistakes not to make, and even if I make how to correct them. I am not offended from your or SparrowsNest comment, but what I think is instead of telling me not to work on a small project and learn C# professionally maybe you can teach me the basics, so I learn C# on my own... I am not one of those code askers who just comment for code but I am here to ask for help for syntax errors I can't fix. Please don't be offended but read your comment once

I am saying the same thing I am 12 and I want to learn but the basics and how to remove syntax errors first then those tough A.I's which can think on their own. The knowledge I have till date is because of learning from youtube and unity forums. Thank you!

 

A bool (short for Boolean variable) means a value that is either "true" or "false". Whenever you have an if statement, What you put in () must evaluate to either true or false.

You're first error:

You are expecting OnCollisionEnter to return true or false, depending if there is a collision, but that's not how this function works. If you want a function that immediately evaluates collisions, look at the Physics object's static methods
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Physics.html

Your second error:

This doesn't make sense because Distance returns a number. A number is not true or false. You probably meant to put some comparison here. Something like "if distance < 3" or something like that.

 

I'm not trying to offend, insult or hurt you in any way, on the contrary, I know EXACTLY where you coming from, first time i touched a software like this it was Flash when I was about your age (12-13), I too wanted to skip the learning curve and hacked/brute forced my way through it but it only made me more and more confused to the point of "F*** all this S***, i'm out" and i quit until i was 20 something and found out unity if free to use and jumped on it, by then I already had some experience with C#, 2D animation, sound creation and other related stuff, It still took a few good months until I learned Unity itself, honed my mostly theoretical C# knowledge into practical code, you are jumping ahead of your self and you're going to regret it later.
you clearly lack basic knowledge on how all this stuff works so I'm strongly advising you to keep following tutorials, be it in school, books or youtube videos, they will teach you all you know want to know here.

please understand that the knowledge you need right now is relatively very basic and there are endless sources you can get it for free, what we are here for mostly is help you debug you code, understand a specific concept and alike, not teach you 101.

Whoa, little dude, going from basic syntax errors to full-on actual AI is quite a jump.

 

To add a bit more help, check this guy out: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbghT7MmckI7JAftgv0CUdU4RLNivG6wY

This link is a basic C# tutorial by a guy who goes by the name "quill18", he's one of my favorite teachers(including all school teachers I've had and books too), he has a lot more on his channel "quill18creates" and I think it's a good starting point for you.

If you want to get a little more advanced I'd suggest you look up sebastian lauge("SebastianLauge" on youtube), he's very good at explaining complicated stuff.(not saying quill is only "basic" stuff, he's got some great mid-high level stuff too)

You've said you're interested in AI so this book should be worth a read after watching the first link I gave you(BTW I've red this book almost 3 times now and I've still got stuff to learn from it, don't give up just because you don't get it on the first go)
http://lecturer.ukdw.ac.id/~mahas/dossier/gameng_AIFG.pdf

Just trying to help you get on a path that leads you somewhere besides a brick wall, all the best wishes.

 

Sorry Sir...
in a simple word : Methodology

 

Hey thank you everyone! I have finally fixed my code, it is working as expected.

Ok sorry, I know was acting like a 18 month old, but that is because I was really stressed because of exams, homework, video games, and unity of course. Now I will try to act mature.

Thank you! I will search quill18 and try to learn more.. thank you so much and best of wishes to you too for your projects.

Thanks man, that really helped!

Thank you sir, without you I couldn't fix my code...

So overall, what I think is that I have to learn more, I have to try to act mature, I should not get irritated when someone is trying to help me, and finally I should always thank those who help me.

 

Hey, how do i change my name? I want to change my name

THANKS!

 

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
4. using UnityEngine.UI;
5.  
6. public class PauseGame : MonoBehaviour
7. {
8.     public GameObject Pause;
9.  
10.     void Update () {
11.     if(Input.GetButtonDown("Escape"))
12.     {
13.                  Time.timeScale = 0f;
14.                  Pause.SetActive(true);
15.     }
16.     else
17.     {
18.                  Time.timeScale = 1f;
19.                  Pause.SetActive(false);
20.     }
21. }
22. }

Any idea why this is not working? Have written pause menu many times but I don't know why when I am trying it with escape button it's not working...

 

Did you try with any other key instead of the "Escape"one?

 

Use Debug.Log to find out why! Hint, Google for "Unity Debug.Log example"

 

if(Input.GetButtonDown("Escape")) not working because you have not Escape button in input system you need to change it with if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))

 

Hi! It's the updated code as suggested by @dontdiedevelop.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using UnityEngine.UI;
4. public class PauseGame : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     public GameObject Pause;
7.     void Update () {
8.     if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
9.     {
10.                  Pause.SetActive(true);
11.                  Time.timeScale = 0f;
12.     }
13.     else
14.     {
15.                  Pause.SetActive(false);
16.                  Time.timeScale = 1f;
17.     }
18. }
19. }

But it's still not working

Yes, I did using almost all alphabetic keys.

Haven't tried that out yet, but I am going too just now and will let you know the results.

Umm.. it's not working..

And, I have changed the code a bit..

 

Remember that GetKeyDown is only going to be true for one frame. On the very next frame it will be false, so therefore your code will fall to the "else" clause and it will deactivate your pause menu again.

 

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. //Updated Code
3.  
4. using UnityEngine;
5. using System.Collections;
6. using UnityEngine.UI;
7.  
8. public class PauseGame: MonoBehaviour
9. {
10.  
11.     public GameObject Pause;
12.  
13.     void Update()
14.     {
15.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
16.         {
17.             if (Time.timeScale == 1)
18.             {
19.                 Pause.SetActive(true);
20.                 Time.timeScale = 0;
21.             }
22.             else if (Time.timeScale == 0)
23.             {
24.                 Pause.SetActive(false);
25.                 Time.timeScale = 1;
26.             }
27.         }
28.     }
29. }

It's working but only for else statement... in the editor when I make the "pause" gameobject active, and press escape.. it does disappear but only to not appear when I press escape again.

Actually I didn't know that because it's my first time playing with keys.. earlier I used buttons.. So can you suggest any method??

Actually that's what I think is happening.. I am tired so I guess I will work on it again tommorow..

 

timeScale is a float, I believe, so its better to never compare using "==". Does it work if if you replace "== 0" and " ==1" with "<0.5f" and ">0.5f"?

 

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using UnityEngine.UI;
4.  
5. public class PauseGame: MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.    
8.     public GameObject Pause;
9.  
10.     void Update()
11.     {
12.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
13.         {
14.             if (Time.timeScale > 0.5f)
15.             {
16.                 Pause.SetActive(true);
17.                 Time.timeScale = 0;
18.             }
19.             else if (Time.timeScale < 0.5f)
20.             {
21.                 Pause.SetActive(false);
22.                 Time.timeScale = 1;
23.             }
24.         }
25.     }
26. }

No, it didn't work.. I guess I have to edit my code again..

 

I just made the code a lot simpler by seperating the pause and resume methods and adding a static bool.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using UnityEngine.UI;
4.  
5. public class PauseGame: MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.  
8.     public GameObject PauseMenu;
9.     public static bool GameIsPaused = false;
10.  
11.     void Update()
12.     {
13.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape))
14.         {
15.             if (GameIsPaused)
16.             {
17.                 Resume();
18.             }
19.             else
20.             {
21.                 Pause();
22.             }
23.         }
24.     }
25.  
26.     void Resume()
27.     {
28.                 PauseMenu.SetActive(false);
29.                 Time.timeScale = 1f;
30.                 GameIsPaused = false;
31.     }
32.  
33.     void Pause()
34.     {
35.                 PauseMenu.SetActive(true);
36.                 Time.timeScale = 0f;
37.                 GameIsPaused = true;
38.     }
39. }

But, the same thing is happening again and again...

 

Just to make sure, the "Pause" gameobject that you are setting inactive- Is that a different object than your PauseGame script is attached to?

 

How are you debugging? I don't see any Debug.Log statements. Perhaps step debugging in Visual Studio?

 

Hi! but I can't figure out how to use Debug.log... I am still in the learning process..

 

Yes! It's attached to the canvas which contains the panel gameobject "PauseMenu".

 

Hey, guys I am sorry but because of issues I will make it a mobile game, so yeah I will use a button and it's working as expected with a button. So yeah, sorry for disturbing you guys, but I am happy that you helped. Just one last help... I am finished with the idea of my new enemy AI ( this AI is much different than the complex AI this thread was based on ). I want my enemy to run towards my player when the player sees it but more like a slender based ai.. as it would randomly ( not really ) teleport in the terrain... Now.. i need help only in the "I want my enemy to run towards my player when the player sees it" and "it would randomly ( not really ) teleport in the terrain" parts.. any help would be appreciated.. I have not started making the AI yet but I am confident that this AI wouldn't be that complex.. I will upload my code work in some days if there are any issues.. Thank You!

 

I assure you, if you don't know basics tools for debugging, including Debug.Log and break points, going further in game dev, soon become nightmare.

So I suggest, learn at least basics methods of debugging, as soon as possible. You will appreciate spent own time then.

 

I guess, you're right I think I should give some time for learning... thanks!

 

Is there any way to delete this thread? I have got my answers and all...

 

Do not delete your thread, newbies are everywhere sometime someone can need this posts

 

Indeed, please never delete your posts (like first post was deleted already), once in discussion.
It has contribution to thread and community.
Otherwise, this can be viewed, as unfriendly act against posters and readers.

 

Ok.. I will not delete this thread, I promise. But can you tell how to delete? I will not delete, don't worry.

 

I am not worry, because you can't just like that. You can delete, only soon after new thread is created. And I am not even 100% sure you can then, by yourself. But once topic is receiving replays, you can't for sure. The only other way, is to request deletion from moderators. And that would need to be with rational explanation, for such reason.

 

No, you can't; I tried with a thread I created that never got any comments; there is no way to delete the first post, deleting the entire thread as well.

 

Thanks to everyone who replied.. I will now not be active here.. but I will return someday and tell you all that I improved a lot and maybe even give a link to my game.. Bye guys..

 

Dont keep us waiting too long now

I learnt how to use Debug.Log... in fact I am using it in a small 3D game i am making just to enhance my coding, it'so useful, it's so shameful I didn't knew about this earlier.. It's all about avoiding balls which will randomly come near you.. It's just a test project, So.. I will not release it..

I learnt almost all about Vector3.. in fact obviously I am using it!!

Plus, I was really shocked to see so many slender script demands on unity forums... I mean it's so easy but yes it's complex too... I have created one and it works as expected..

But.. I am not finished I still have to learn more.. but I will release my first ( not really ) game in june or july.. was practising After Effects side by side.. Bye!

Code (CSharp):

1. Debug.Log("look duration = " + lookDuration);
2.  
3. // This is the part of my code which uses Debug.Log.. it's really useful

 

I corrected my whole code and this time it worked!! Thanks to @JeffDUnity3D who introduced Debug.Log to me..

 

Update #2
I finished my test project, It was a success. Now, I am moving to a little bit bigger. I am making a SLENDER game, don't get me wrong, I making it as my test project but I will share the game to the public for rating. Before you say that the scripts are hard, I want to tell you I already have them, I created them. They work perfectly! Plus all scripts you will see in that project will be written by me. I hope you support me. I already created all scripts, now I just have to create the terrain and all. I will link that game's trailer in two weeks and then the game itself three weeks later.

 

Update #3
I have changed my plans a bit. The slender game I am creating will be converted to an asset. I want to help people create what they want too.. It's going to be simple but really good, I promise

It will include:
1) Menu Scene
1.1) Fully functional simple main menu with video background, play, quit, credits, youtube and discord buttons.

2) Loading Scene
2.1) Random text displayer just like those hint box. Will automatically turn to Game scene after some time

3) Game Scene (The real deal)
3.1) Slender AI (Spawns more often depending on your page count)
3.2) Page Pickup and Random Spawner System
3.3) Fully functional simple pause menu with Sensitivity Controller and Music Controller. You can add your own things.
3.5) Glitch/Static Effect

4) DeathCam Scene
4.1) Will automatically open if player stares slender for too long
4.2) SFX
4.3) Glitch/Static Effect

5) GameOver Scene (Really Simple)
5.1) Will automatically open after some time
5.2) GameOver text and button to go back to menu

0 Compiler Errors and Well commented scripts. I mean this asset may be simple but I guess useful for many people who want to create slender games.

Well really if you ask me.. I never want to create horror games that's why I am turning this into an asset.

I would like your opinion on this subject though..

Update #4
Hi! I want to share my first test project (2d) with everyone (not the source code). I was inspired by Therse's asset "Bouncing Rabbit", but because my parents didn't allow me to buy that asset, I took the challenge to recreate it. Almost all sprites in my game has been taken from the video trailer, though I couldn't get that fire trail image, so I created one using photoshop. and I recorded the music and used Audacity to remove the noise. It all took me 3 months, and I am pretty impressed with my project from the menu to the game over scene. Don't get me wrong it was just a test project and I have no intentions to sell my project (all credits go to the actual creator). You can check out my project and trailer here.
