Title: How to reach a pool of objects and activate/deactivate them?
Post by: Neikke on June 14, 2019, 05:40:48 AM

I have a pool of 10 objects (text prefabs) which I want to be able to activate one by one on each collision with Player.

So obviously I will have a pool of 10 instantiated at the start, but deactivated objects waiting to be activated on collision with player. But then how would I:

1. Activate them one by one without activating all 10 at once?

2. Activate only deactivated ones?

Please help!

Hi.
use an Array, set size to 10 so you can drop in the objects.

drop in all the objects in element 0 place the 1st one that should be activated and in element 9 the last on (and rest in between)

You can loop by using 'array get next'.
Or you could use an int starting @ 0 and on hit get array (use the int on the index)
enable the object and do int add 1 to the int value.

or an action called Iterate.

here's a video about arrays :
