I want the enemy to be deleted after a period of time after he died 
is there a way to do this ?

Your welcome!

:c not sure , but when ever my enemyAI dies , all the scripts attached to the EnemyAI get deleted

btw I used your code that you posted here

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class DestoryAI : MonoBehaviour {
public float DestroyTime = 5;
void OnDeath()
{
StartCoroutine(Death());
}
IEnumerator Death()
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(DestroyTime);
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}

NO compile errors , but it get deleted before he can run in the first place
do I need to do what you suggest in the other thread post ?

"Open up the script vRagdoll.cs, find the line 380 to 420 and comment them out by using // in front of every line. They will turn green you telling the compiler to ignore these lines."

make sure if you are using a prefab to spawn the enemies, that you are saving(applying changes) to your prefab and *not* just the one in your scene.

otherwise when your scene enemy dies, it will just spawn a new *fresh* copy of enemyAI without the changes you made.
common mistake for a lot of people.

also, if they are dying right away before even starting, make sure you have baked your navmesh for your scene. otherwise AI will trigger instant death so as not to error out the game.
this is setup in Invectors normal code by default.

I made an AI character using Invector Melee Combat and save it as a prefab (with all scripts attached to it)
so when my enemy respawn , he respawn with DestoryAI script that Chronicman suggest and everything.

and yee , I baked the scene , the enemy go to waypoints and when ever I do something (kill someone - or steal a car) he start following me and attacking me

the AI controller works perfectly
the only problem I have now
if I kill an enemy AI
their body still laying in the ground while the respawner respawn an other prefab
after killing many of them , the game become slower and the fps drops so fast , since so many enemies still remain in the scene , I want to completely destroyed my enemy when ever he died

the only thing is , when an enemyAI dies all scripts get deleted as you see in the inspector

Does the a.I. script have a option to delete the dead enemy? Like how there is a check box for that for the player character. If there is might wanna double check to see if the box is checked or not.

[Chronicman]

Did you check the v_AIMotor ? It has a function just like the ragdoll. Commenting these out should resolve you problem.

[haikel]

yondaime08 '-' that could be an easy solution
I can make a gamecontroller for every spawned character - and when ever my char dead the game controller will destroy that charechter for me a spawn it again
I might try that thx (but it might be not practical because I'm using a spawner )

Chronicman well , I didn't , I'll check that now and see if it solve it :D

thx for helping me out guys ^^

[haikel]

Chronicman there is no DestroyComponents in the V_AIMotor :L

[haikel]

I found it
it called RemoveComponents
I commented them out , and now my enemy components don't get deleted when ever he die
but , your script didn't work :c , they enemy still on the ground

Did you invoke the void onDeath with the vonDeath event ??

i"m not sure if it is correct but it can use adding public before void OnDeath() instead of the old one but it works cause the function choosen
