I am not amazing at coding but i do enjoy doing it and seeing the results, and i have come across some annoying issues, I have these two scripts, one that controls the effects and the other that controls the menu + some minor effects, the issue is when in game it works all perfectly once and then keeps failing after....

What the Scripts are for: http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1434022-show-us-what-youre-working-on-thread-6/page__view__findpost__p__22011476

(I tried uses OnTranslationComplete but couldn't get it to work.)

I warn you know, seeing as im not amazing at coding, it may seem messy to you.

Please point to where i have messed up or tidy the script up either way i would be greatly thankful!

You've commented out some code, why is that?

OnTranslationComplete events will only get sent from objects that do any translating. For example, you can't have an activator tell a static to translate, and then expect to receive that event within the script on the activator...

Have you tried adding Debug.Notification's to various stages of your code? It does wonders helping you figure out where things may be going wrong......

If parts of the code are commented out its because i was either trying a different method and/or saving it for later.


I'm not sure I understand what you just said there, I understand that OnTranslationComplete with only happen when the translation is complete yes? but what your saying is that i should have OnTranslationComplete on the actually object that is moving? I suppose that does make alot more sense :S
