[SIMPLE] Layer Weight Change Animator

Hey,

i want to Set the Layer Weight and it is working on my Test Cube
But if i duplicate the Cube, then it is only working on one of them.
If i untick one Cube the other works again. But never both. Dont know why. Any Ideas?

Thank you very much for your Time

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class TestLayerChange : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.    public Animator animator;                    // Assign Animator
8.    public bool PlayerTrigger = false;       // Set Bool if Player enter the Trigger
9.  
10.     void Update ()
11.     {
12.         if (PlayerTrigger)
13.         {
14.             animator.SetLayerWeight (3, 1f);   // If Player enter Trigger then Set the Layer Weight to 1
15.         }
16.         else
17.         {
18.             animator.SetLayerWeight (3, 0f);   // If Player leave Trigger then Set the Layer Weight to 1
19.         }
20.     }
21.  
22.     void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
23.     {
24.         if (other.tag == "Player")
25.         {
26.             PlayerTrigger = true;
27.         }
28.     }
29.  
30.     void OnTriggerExit(Collider other)
31.     {
32.         if (other.tag == "Player")
33.         {
34.             PlayerTrigger = false;
35.         }
36.     }
37. }
38.  

 

well, what is 'otherObject' ? Are you possibly setting the value on the same animator (twice)?

 

Thanks for the response. I did not need the Start Function so i deleted that line.
But i have the same Problem. What do you mean with setting it twice on the same animator? Maybe thats why, but how else can i do it?

Maybe the picture get a better understanding of my problem

 

Okay got it. No need of Update either. Thanks

 

Sorry, I'm actually not sure. Though, I think you could set the weight in the enter/exit instead of polling for it in Update, if you do figure out why it's not working.

lol. You responded as I was still wondering. Post your solution or write what was wrong/how you fixed it?

 

I just put it in the OnTriggerEnter/Exit function and it now works for all Prefabs

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class TestLayerChange : MonoBehaviour {
6.  
7.  
8.     public Animator animator;                       // Assign Animator
9.     public bool PlayerTrigger = false;       // Set Bool if Player enter the Trigger
10.  
11.  
12.  
13.     void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
14.     {
15.         if (other.tag == "Player")
16.         {
17.             PlayerTrigger = true;
18.             animator.SetLayerWeight (3, 1f);
19.         }
20.     }
21.  
22.     void OnTriggerExit(Collider other)
23.     {
24.         if (other.tag == "Player")
25.         {
26.             PlayerTrigger = false;
27.             animator.SetLayerWeight (3, 0f);
28.         }
29.     }
30. }
31.  

 

Interesting. Maybe the variable was not set properly when you copied the other one.
Anyways, it's a good fix as moving it to that portion of the code is more sensible anyways
