Sorry for the newbie question here but I am having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to get my animal to apply damage to the character. I see in the code that it says to use the TakeDamage method to apply damage, however I can not get this to work at all.
Here is an example of what I am trying.
I know I am not the best coder so any help would be appreciated, I just need the correct method to call and be able to apply damage to the character when it is hit by the animal.
And I cannot use the the vObjectDamage for this before it is mentioned(lol).
thank you in advance for any help and sorry for the rookie question
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag ("Player")) {
other.SendMessage ("TakeDamage", 20f);
}
}

Okay getting closer anyhow, if I use the following code then the player is damaged on the collision but it throws an error.
does anyone know what am I doing wrong here?
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using Invector;
using Invector.CharacterController;
using Invector.EventSystems;
public class HitMe : MonoBehaviour {
public vCharacter cc;
public int damage;
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.CompareTag ("Player")) {
cc.TakeDamage ((Damage)new Damage(damage), true);
}
}
}Then I get the error....
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Invector.CharacterController.vThirdPersonMotor.TakeDamage (.Damage damage, Boolean hitReaction) (at Assets/Invector-3rdPersonController/Basic Locomotion/Scripts/CharacterController/vThirdPersonMotor.cs:319)
HitMe.OnTriggerEnter (UnityEngine.Collider other) (at Assets/HitMe.cs:15)

Just curious, why can't you use the vObjectDamage?

Just curious, why can't you use the vObjectDamage? Trying to see if I can get emerald AI working good. It has the ability to have a custom function or a sendMessage called to apply damage, just cant get it to work out correctly with the above. Last minute hiccups delaying us, lol! |

You need to send more information, try this:
if (other.CompareTag("Player"))
{
var _damage = new Damage(damage);
_damage.sender = transform;
_damage.hitPosition = transform.position;
cc.TakeDamage(_damage, true);
}
