Survival Shooter Q&A

Hi have an issue with the 1st video I am getting an error of:
Assets/Scripts/Player/PlayerMovement.cs(48,30): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `Quaternion'

I have read through the completed coding and have rewritten parts and try to copy segments directly and I cant solve this issue

my coding is:

1 using UnityEngine;
2
3 public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
4 {
5 public float speed = 6f;
6
7 Vector3 movment;
8 Animator anim;
9 Rigidbody playerRigidbody;
10 int floorMask;
11 float camRayLangth = 100f;
12
13 void Awake()
14 {
15 floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask ("Floor");
16 anim = GetComponents <Animator> ();
17 playerRigidbody = GetComponent <Rigidbody> ();
18 }
19
20 void FixedUpdate()
21 {
22 float h = CrossPlatformInputManager.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
23 float v = CrossPlatformInputManager.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");
24
25 Move (h, v);
26 Turning ();
27 Animation (h, v);
28 }
29
30 void Move (float h, float v)
31 {
32 movment.Set (h, 0f, v);
33
34 movment = movment.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;
35
36 playerRigidbody.MovePosition (transform.position + movement);
37 }
38
39 void Turning()
40 {
41 Ray camRay = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);
42
43 if (Physics.Raycast (camRay, out floorHit, camRayLanght, FloorMask))
44 {
45 Vector3 playerToMouse = floorHit.point - transform.position;
46 playerToMouse.y = 0f
47
48 Quaternion newRotatation = Quaternion.LookRotation (playerToMouse);
49 playerRigidbody.moveRotation (newRotation);
50 }
51 }
52
53 void Animation(float h, float v)
54 {
55 bool walking = h != 0f || v !=0f;
56 anim.SetBool ("IsWalking", walking);
57 }
58 }

I am using unity 5.1.2f1 thianks

 

I've just completed the tutorial after completing the space shooter and ball game tutorials. Everything works perfectly, thank you very much for creating such detailed tutorials and awesome assets.

The only thing I am uncertain off is how the animations were created for the player and enemies. Can someone please point me to some tutorials on this topic.

Thanks.

 

The animations were likely created with another program like Maya, Blender etc.

 

Line 46 looks like it needs a semicolon( ; ) at the end of it.

so Instead of

Code (CSharp):

1. playerToMouse.y = 0f

It needs to be

Code (CSharp):

1. playerToMouse = 0f;

Let me know how that works for you.

 

I have exactly the same problem.
I've just found that there's an Animation Event in the Die animation that when it finishes, it restart the level.
But I don't know why it breaks the lighting and I need to restart Unity to get it all working again.

 

Hey all I'm having some trouble if anyone could help.

I have finished the tutorial and everything is working fine except for one little thing...
My lighting at Game Over restart.
When I start my game it looks great, it's dark and the lighting is exactly how it is supposed to be.


But then after it finishes the Game Over animation and restarts, all the lighting looks like it has been removed.



Please help!
Thanks

 

Hi, I've just read the solution for the lighting "bug" by jaimemh in this thread. Here is it:

 

Legend! I had this same typo. Couldn't see it for looking.

 

I see in the _CompletedAssets folder scripts to make the game compatible with mobile devices. I swapped my scripts with those and indeed the Player is able to shoot on Android and iOS, but not to move. What am I missing? Thanks!

Can someone help?. I added a new custom Model and spawnpoint. It spawns properly walks a attacks and dies, but when it does it doesnt score or sink to the floor and delete. I have attached the Enemy health Script that is working properly for all the standard assets. I am not sure what is wrong and where to fix it.
Any help would be awesome!

Ok so I am stuck on lesson 2. Here is my script:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     public float speed = 6f;
6.  
7.     Vector3 movement;
8.     Animator anim;
9.     Rigidbody playerRidgidbody;
10.     int floorMask;
11.     float camRayLength = 100f;
12.  
13.     void Awake()
14.     {
15.         floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask ("Floor");
16.         anim = GetComponent <Animator> ();
17.         playerRidgidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody> ();
18.     }
19.     void FixedUpdate()
20.     {
21.         float h = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal");
22.         float v = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical");
23.  
24.         Move (h, v);
25.         Turning ();
26.         Animating (h, v);
27.     }
28.  
29.     void Move (float h, float v)
30.     {
31.         movement.Set (h, 0f, v);
32.         movement = movement.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;
33.         playerRidgidbody.MovePosition (transform.position + EnemyMovement);
34.     }
35.  
36.     void Turning()
37.     {
38.         Ray camRay = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePresent);
39.         RaycastHit floorHit;
40.         if (Physics.Raycast (camRay, out floorHit, camRayLength, floorMask)) {
41.         {
42.             Vector3 playerToMouse = floorHit.point - Transform.position;
43.             playerToMouse.y = 0f;
44.  
45.             Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.LoofRoatation (playerToMouse);
46.             playerRidgidbody.MoveRotation (newRotation);
47.         }
48.     }
49.  
50.         void Animating(float h, float v)
51.     {
52.             bool walking = h != 0f || v != 0f;
53.             anim.SetBool ("IsWalking", walking);
54.     }
55. }
56.  

I followed it completely while writing the PlayerMovement script but I am getting these errors:

Assets/Scripts/Player/PlayerMovement.cs(50,30): error CS1547: Keyword `void' cannot be used in this context
Assets/Scripts/Player/PlayerMovement.cs(50,31): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `(', expecting `)', `,', `;', `[', or `='

I am hoping someone with a better scripting knowledge to help me out as I am an artist by trade! Thanks!

 

At line 33 change EnemyMovement to movement
At line 38 change .mousePresent to .mousePosition
At line 43 change Transform.position to transform.position
At line 46 change Quaternion.LoofRoatation to Quaternion.LookRotation
At line 49 add }

Tell me how that works for you. And if you need further explaining, I am a beginner programmer so I can only help so much. But ask anyways

Are you using MonoDevelop for the scripting?

 

I figured out what I did wrong I didnt have the animation Death Trigger set

 

Enemy HealthBar, and mobile deployment

First of all, thanks for a great tutorial, I've just migrated over from UE4 and loving it. Already tried Stealth.

1st question. I'd like to add a health bar above each of the enemies, can someone please point me in the right direction for this.
The HUD does not seem like the right way, since it is sort of a global view.

2nd, I'd also like to deploy this in (Android)mobile, or IOS. @adrianaaaa mentioned above, that there might be some pointers in the _completedAssets. I'll check it out, but any suggestions will be appreciated

Edit:
I've just noticed that there is a live training session on converting the spaceship shooter to mobile at http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/modules/beginner/live-training-archive/space-shooter-to-mobile.
The concepts should be the same. I'll have a go at converting that first, then coming back to convert this,

 

I can't figure out why, but my player won't look at the mouse.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     public float speed = 6f;
6.  
7.     Vector3 movement;
8.     Animator anim;
9.     Rigidbody playerRigidbody;
10.     int floorMask;
11.     float camRayLength = 100f;
12.  
13.     void Awake()
14.     {
15.         floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask ("Floor");
16.         anim = GetComponent <Animator> ();
17.         playerRigidbody = GetComponent <Rigidbody> ();
18.     }
19.  
20.     void FixedUpdate()
21.     {
22.         float h = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal");
23.         float v = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical");
24.  
25.         Move (h, v);
26.         Turning ();
27.         Animating (h, v);
28.     }
29.  
30.     void Move (float h, float v)
31.     {
32.         movement.Set (h, 0f, v);
33.  
34.         movement = movement.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;
35.  
36.         playerRigidbody.MovePosition (transform.position + movement);
37.     }
38.  
39.     void Turning()
40.     {
41.         Ray camRay = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);

46.         {
47.             Vector3 playerToMouse = floorHit.point - transform.position;
48.             playerToMouse.y = 0f;
49.  
50.             Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation (playerToMouse);
51.             playerRigidbody.MoveRotation (newRotation);
52.         }
53.     }

58.         anim.SetBool ("IsWalking", walking);
59.     }
60. }
61.  

I followed the guide as best I could, and I've double-checked everything. Can I get some help here?

 

I hope the post of the admin added this reply at the #1 post since this is everyone's bug found in the YouTube comments. Also, the YouTube video did not link to this post. I was directed a number of times to reach here.

Thanks. The black screen issue is solved.

 

Hello guys, I really can't download the assets for that game, I can't see any download button on that page. Can you help me please?

 

Thank you so much. Much appreciated.

 

Hi there
Have you checked "Has Exit Time" on transition arrow?
I'd got same problem with you and i solved by unchecked "Has Exit Time" option.
sorry for my broken english

 

Hey,
Just finished part 7 of the tutorial. My problem is that when I am running I can't shoot and can only start shooting whilst standing still. If I keep shooting I can then run and shoot but can't start shooting when running. Also there is a small delay when I stop running before being able to shoot again. Any ideas what is wrong?

 

I've done this tutorial before. This time around, for some reason, my Zombears (with the purple outlines) emit a purple glow (they are spawned with a point light.) I've never experienced this. Using Unity 5.1.2f1. Did I tick a box I shouldn't have somewhere? The point light isn't present in the prefab.

 

I am having an issue. everything has worked perfectly up til the end of the "spawning enemies" video. Whenever I hit play I am able to shoot at enemies that spawn until the 10 second mark when the Hellephant is supposed to spawn. When the Hellephant SHOULD spawn, the game stops instead and I get an error message at the bottom that states "IndexOutOfRangeException: Array index is out of range." I have checked and double checked the code and the location of spawn poitns on x,y, and z axis etc etc even went so far as to copy and paste the code from the transcript below and I get this issue no matter what. Thank you in advance for helping me.

 

What is this proble?
Thank you for your help

 

I am having an issue with getting the player to follow the mouse. I've checked over my code multiple times and have found lots of posts online with ideas of why this isn't working none of which so far have applied to me. My debug log returns 'ray didn't hit' and my floor is set with a floor layer which is what I would assume would cause that problem.

Thanks for looking it over and any ideas on how to fix it.

I have the same turning issue of lesson 2, the only problem is the rotation of the mouse, I've been working on a laptop, maybe the touchpad is the problem, can someone help me to figure out.

Here is my code:


using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 6f;

Vector3 movement;
Animator anim;
Rigidbody playerRigidbody;
int floorMask;
float camRayLenght = 100f;

void Awake()
{
floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask ("floor");
anim = GetComponent<Animator> ();
playerRigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody> ();

}

void FixedUpdate()
{
float h = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal");
float v = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical");

Move (h, v);
Turning ();
Animating (h, v);
}

void Move (float h, float v)
{
movement.Set (h, 0f, v);

movement = movement.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;

playerRigidbody.MovePosition (transform.position + movement);

}

void Turning()
{
Ray camRay = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);

RaycastHit floorHit;

if (Physics.Raycast (camRay, out floorHit, floorMask))
{
Vector3 playerToMouse = floorHit.point - transform.position;
playerToMouse.y = 0f;

Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation (playerToMouse);
playerRigidbody.MoveRotation (newRotation);

}

}

void Animating(float h, float v)
{
bool walking = h != 0f || v != 0f;
anim.SetBool ("IsWalking", walking);

}


}

 

Try to capitalize Floor on line 15

Code (CSharp):

1.         floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask("floor");

should be

Code (CSharp):

1.         floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask("Floor");

Tell me how that goes

 

Perfect thanks. sometimes you just need a second set of eyes.

 

Hi, I've got a problem.
When I try to download the assets for Unity 5, Firefox say that I have to select an aplication to open the file. I select Unity Editor, and I click in O.K. But then, Unity starts normal, like when I start the program, and nothing happens. Please help me.
My version is Unity 5.1.3f1 (64-bit).

 

Try going to the asset store in Unity itself

Click the "Window" drop down menu then click "Asset Store"

Optionally you can just press Ctrl+9

 

Hi, I've got an error I can't figure out which developed for me near the end of Lesson 2. I've been working on it for a while. Google searched it and while I've found other people with the same problem, have found no solution. Help? Thanks.

Unity throws an error stating that my Player does not have a rigidbody, but the Player Movement script is trying to access it anyway, so... error.

Here's the error:

Found it. Look at the Player object in the Hierarchy. There's another Player object attached to it. For some reason the PlayerMovement script got attached to that object as well, which of course didn't have a rigidbody. Removed the script from the child and voila, it works.

 

Hi guys this is the first tutorial I have done with unity and I want to include levels... I think I'd no how to how to display the level number but what would I have to change in the enemy spawn script to create levels.
Thanks

Hey,
Just finished part 7 of the tutorial. My problem is that when I am running I can't shoot and can only start shooting whilst standing still. If I keep shooting I can then run and shoot but can't start shooting when running. Also there is a small delay when I stop running before being able to shoot again. Any ideas what is wrong?

 

Just finished the second tutorial in Unity 5, and my character doesn't seem to move at all whatsoever. I have tried unchecking "has exit time" and I've combed over my code, and can't seem to find whats wrong. I can upload the project if someone could take a look.

here is my code

using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 6f;

Vector3 movement;
Animator anim;
Rigidbody playerRigidbody;
int floorMask;
float camRayLength = 100f;

void Awake()
{
floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask("Floor");
anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
playerRigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
}

void Fixedupdate()
{
float h = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
float v = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");

Move(h, v);
Turning();
Animating(h, v);
}

void Move(float h, float v)
{
movement.Set(h, 0f, v);
movement = movement.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;
playerRigidbody.MovePosition(transform.position + movement);
}

void Turning()
{
Ray camRay = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
RaycastHit floorHit;

if (Physics.Raycast(camRay, out floorHit, camRayLength, floorMask))
{
Vector3 playerToMouse = floorHit.point - transform.position;
playerToMouse.y = 0f;

Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(playerToMouse);
playerRigidbody.MoveRotation(newRotation);
}
}

void Animating(float h, float v)
{
bool walking = h != 0f || v != 0f;
anim.SetBool("IsWalking", walking);
}

public Rigidbody PlayerRigidbody { get; set; }
}

 

I've just written the PlayerMovement script. My player moves about and rotates with the mouse - but when I am holding a movement key down (say W) while the character moves the mouse position is frozen. When the character is not moving, the mouse position can be moved around. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I've checked several times for errors in copying the code form the tutorial but it's just as it is written in the tutorial.

Can someone help me please?

 

I got to the end of lesson 2 and went to play the game to test it and the walking animation is not working? help! using unity 5.1.1 using the most recent assets package.

here is my script:

using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 6f;

Vector3 movement;
Animator anim;
Rigidbody playerRigidbody;
int floorMask;
float camRayLength = 100f;

void Awake()
{
floorMask = LayerMask.GetMask ("Floor");
anim = GetComponent<Animator> ();
playerRigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
}

void FixedUpdate()
{
float h = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal");
float v = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical");

Move (h, v);
Turning ();
Animating (h, v);
}

void Move(float h,float v)
{
movement.Set (h, 0f, v);

movement = movement.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;

playerRigidbody.MovePosition (transform.position + movement);
}

void Turning()
{
Ray camRay = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);

RaycastHit floorHit;

if (Physics.Raycast (camRay, out floorHit, camRayLength, floorMask))
{
Vector3 playerToMouse = floorHit.point - transform.position;
playerToMouse.y = 0f;

Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(playerToMouse);
playerRigidbody.MoveRotation(newRotation);
}
}

void Animating(float h, float v)
{
bool walking = h != 0f || v != 0f;
anim.SetBool ("IsWalking", walking);
}
}

 

I think this problem, and also the one with turning (the "raycast length has to be eliminated" issue) are both related to the same issue: how the Input object works with the mouse on Windows (Note: I am using Windows 8.1 with Unity 5.1.2).

When I add a debug log, the mouse GetRawAxis for "Horizontal" and "Vertical" return x and y values that are opposite what this game expects. Also, the Input.mousePosition (which is a Vector3 - instead of Vector2 - for some reason) has the screen pixel coordinates in the X and Y slots (Z is zero). If you use a 3 monitor development environment (as I do) and have the Unity3d IDE on the third monitor, this can be a rather large value.

How to fix? There are several ways, but as I am new to this, I am exploring the Unity Input object to make sure the solution is consistent with the Unity3D developers' philosophy.

Hope this helps a bit

 

Hello!
I need help please! I'm on the Moving Character Tutorial and I have a problem with the animation, or at least I think so. I've made the script exactly like the one in the video and I've followed every step twice, but still when I enter game mode, my character moves, but there isn't any movement animation, he moves like a ghost, just floating.
I'm open to any suggestions.

 

This is also happening to me, however if you keep moving the character after around 5-10 seconds the walking animation plays.

I have tried to look for a fix for this, but I can't work it out!

 

in my player movement script.. player is not turning..! what may be the problem ..?

 

Post your script so we can take a look please.

 

I have an issue with the respawn part.
My player respawns when he dies and the Game Over text shows etc..
However, when I change the value of the respawn timer it doesn't do anything, the respawn doesn't take longer.
I want it longer than the set 5, but when I change it in the GameOverManager script it doesn't make it longer.

This is my GameOverManager script:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class GameOverManager : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     public PlayerHealth playerHealth;
6.     public float restartDelay = 5f;
7.  
8.     Animator anim;
9.     float restartTimer;
10.  
11.  
12.     void Awake()
13.     {
14.         anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
15.     }
16.  
17.  
18.     void Update()
19.     {
20.         //is the player dead? - if yes then play the game over message
21.         if (playerHealth.currentHealth <= 0)
22.         {
23.             anim.SetTrigger("GameOver");
24.             restartTimer += Time.deltaTime;
25.  
26.             if(restartTimer >= restartDelay)
27.             {
28.                 Application.LoadLevel("Level01");
29.             }
30.         }
31.     }
32. }
33.  

Any suggestions?

 

Any suggestions why I can't see the environment prefab in the scene view but in game view everything seems ok?

I am using Unity Pro 5.1.1f1 on Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5.

Edit: Same problem with 5.2.

Thanks in advance!

 

Hello!

One odd issue I'm having right off the bat is that I can't click on object in scene view to select them. Dragging the mouse and selecting groups of objects works and so does hierarchy view, but just clicking doesn't select objects. This only happens with this project and it happens every time I import the project.

 

Hi,

First of all I'm using Unity 5.2 with Win 10 and Amd Radeon Graphics (2GB).

Everytime my scene is loaded from within the game (both when I die and when use a script I created to access it from my start menu) the game is darker than in my game view in the editor and when I play by pressing the play button in the editor.

Here are some screen shots.

When run with the editor :- http://prntscr.com/8iegjv

When loaded with the help of Application.LoadLevel() :- http://prntscr.com/8iegq7

Any help would be appreciated.

Thx in advance!!!

 

There is a post on page 2 I think that tells you have to fix this

 

Hey Guys!

Just started with trying to make my own game So far the program is great, and the tutorial is really helpful!
I just finished the part of Player Health and everything seems to be going fine. Other then at the moment of losing all health, the player isn't dying. I get the following error message:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
PlayerHealth.Death () (at Assets/Scripts/Player/PlayerHealth.cs:86)
PlayerHealth.TakeDamage (Int32 amount) (at Assets/Scripts/Player/PlayerHealth.cs:75)
EnemyAttack.Attack () (at Assets/Scripts/Enemy/EnemyAttack.cs:81)
EnemyAttack.Update () (at Assets/Scripts/Enemy/EnemyAttack.cs:60)

Could someone explain to me how i could fix this?
Thanks in advance!

 

Hi All,

For those having trouble with the player character turning, setting the Transform scale.z = 1 on the Floor object fixed the issue I was having. For some reason mine was set to 0 and this breaks the ray casting.

Naglor:
You're trying to use a reference to an object where you haven't told it specifically which object it should look at. Check that you've instantiated all the correct variables in the Awake() function, and also that you've linked any public variables (AudioClip maybe?) in the inspector.

 

I have the exact same problem alongside my mouse not making a raycast and rotating the character.

 

Great Tutorial, thank you! The only one thing that missing is the explanation "Who" invokes the function StartSinking() in the EnemyHealth script.It's reeeeally difficult to find out if you are new to Unity.
