SceneFader Script

As I tried your “1) Move your UpdateCameraYDampForPlayerFall(); under your Move() in Update()” the character can move horizontally but other movement is not working ex) attacking, jumping, skills

and after I attached SceneFader to UIManager script, I think scene transitioning is working.

But still there are repetitive error message on console.

I’ll show the video of result.

[Joseph Tang]

For the SceneFader error: Add this code under UIManager.cs:

private void Awake()
    {
        if (Instance != null && Instance != this)
        {
            Destroy(gameObject);
        }
        else
        {
            Instance = this;
        }
        DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);
        sceneFader = GetComponentInChildren<SceneFader>();
    }

As for your movement and camera issue. I’ll need to check so give me a moment.

As can be seen in the video, your Canvas has nothing set as it’s Scene Fader.

As for the fact that you cannot move, I believe something went wrong with your RigidBody2D which is also causing the NullReferenceException Errors for your UpdateCameraYDampForPlayerFall() method.

Can you copy and paste the entire code for your UIManager.cs & your PlayerController.cs?

At the same time, check if the Scene Fader game object under your Canvas has a SceneFader.cs script on it.

[Joseph Tang]

Hi sorry, but I’ll need more videos, particularly, you showing how the Canvas Prefab inspector is like while in game + Moving out of the camera bounds + scene transitions. You can take one video straight, selecting different objects to show their insectors.

From the looks of the normal inspectors, either there is no SceneFader set on your UIManager.cs, or it will be automatically set by a SceneFader.instance if there is one in the scene.

[Pete]

I think that i better to show you my situation with screenshots and video

and in canvas prefab, I can’t attach SceneFader.cs on UIManager…

“Player Inspector”

“UIManager Inspector”

“SceneTransition Inspector”

“Error Console”

[Joseph Tang]

In regards to the camera, can you check if your Camera parent or any object has the CameraManager.cs script on it? I feel that likely the errors in the PlayerController.cs is a separate issue where it cannot find an instance of the CameraManager.cs

As for your SceneTransition, check that your Canvas Prefab has a UIManager.cs attached to it & the “Scene Fader” assigned appropriately to it. Then ensure that the SceneFader game object in the Canvas is set to Active as an inactive one will be taken as a null.

Otherwise, if both situations don’t work, could you taking some screenshots of the inspector of your UIManager, Player, SceneTransition inspectors & a video or console of what happens when you transition scenes?

As a side note, I noticed that your SceneTransition.cs calls SceneManager.LoadScene(transitionTo); in the private void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D _other) method before the StartCoroutine. You should not need the LoadScene() code itself as the coroutine you are casting will activate both the fade and LoadScene() already.

[Pete]

Hi Pete, for the SceneFader, can you check this topic and see if it fixes your issue? https://blog.terresquall.com/community/topic/part-5-my-scenefader-cannot-function/

I’ll need you to bold the line the error is occurring on for your PlayerController script. The null reference exception is specific to certain lines.

Hi, I have a trouble on part 6.

I just followed “Camera Bounds” & “Dynamic Camera Y Damping” and when I try to run the game, it just pauses and there are repetitive error msg on console.

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object SceneTransition.Start () (at Assets/Scripts/SceneTransition.cs:27)

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object PlayerController.UpdateCameraYDampForPlayerFall () (at Assets/Scripts/PlayerController.cs:258) PlayerController.Update () (at Assets/Scripts/PlayerController.cs:184)

Question 1: Slash effect sprite not properly changing directions.

By right, the normal code should work as the way it works is that for your side attacks, they are calling Instantiate slash effect under the Side Attack Transform game object on the Player. And since they are underneath a child of the player, whenever your player flips, the slash effect should flip too. That brings me to my theory of what the issue is: I think your side attack is calling SlashEffectAtAngle() instead of Instantiate. Check that your code in PlayerController.cs is as follows:

void Attack()
    {
        timeSinceAttck += Time.deltaTime;
        if(attack && timeSinceAttck >= timeBetweenAttack)
        {
            timeSinceAttck = 0;
            anim.SetTrigger("Attacking");

            if (yAxis == 0 || yAxis < 0 && Grounded())
            {
                int _recoilLeftOrRight = pState.lookingRight ? 1 : -1;

                Hit(SideAttackTransform, SideAttackArea, ref pState.recoilingX, Vector2.right * _recoilLeftOrRight, recoilXSpeed);
                Instantiate(slashEffect, SideAttackTransform);
            }
            else if (yAxis > 0)
            {
                Hit(UpAttackTransform, UpAttackArea, ref pState.recoilingY, Vector2.up, recoilYSpeed);
                SlashEffectAtAngle(slashEffect, 80, UpAttackTransform);
            }
            else if (yAxis < 0 && !Grounded())
            {
                Hit(DownAttackTransform, DownAttackArea, ref pState.recoilingY, Vector2.down, recoilYSpeed);
                SlashEffectAtAngle(slashEffect, -90, DownAttackTransform);
            }
        }
    }

If this doesn’t work, I’ll need some screenshots or a video of the inspector of both PlayerController.cs in the scene, or the attack transforms + Slash Effect clones while attacking.

Question 2: Zombie not recoiling.

This was an issue that occurred to me as well. After testing now. I can tell you that the recoil should be working. If you crank the enemy speed down to 1 or 0, you can see that they are still being recoiled, just to a lesser extent than they had been before setting interpolate. While this is an additional issue due to interpolate, I’d say we can fix that by changing the code.

public virtual void EnemyHit(float _damageDone, Vector2 _hitDirection, float _hitForce)
    {
        health -= _damageDone;
        if (!isRecoiling)
        {
            rb.velocity = _hitForce * recoilFactor * _hitDirection;
            isRecoiling = true;
        }
    }

The isRecoiling bool was never set to true in our code, thus making RecoilLength a useless variable, but doing this will prevent your enemy from moving while being recoiled, which should cancel out the interpolate issue in general.

Question 3: Spellcast after heal

This is a common issue that others have experienced and in our bugfixes in Part 6. Check this to see if it helps (Second last comment):

Thanks in advance to everyone

I will have to get back to you on the Reset data button.

As for reloading the game to only the Bench position I can help. I’m assuming this means pausing the game then exiting to main menu and quitting, rather than closing the game mid playthrough. Also, I’m assuming you have completed the scripts until Part 9.

In your SaveData.cs, try out this:

    public void SavePlayerData()
    {
        using (BinaryWriter writer = new BinaryWriter(File.OpenWrite(Application.persistentDataPath + "/save.player.data")))
        {
            playerHealth = PlayerController.Instance.Health;
            writer.Write(playerHealth);
            playerHeartShards = PlayerController.Instance.heartShards;
            writer.Write(playerHeartShards);

            playerMana = PlayerController.Instance.Mana;
            writer.Write(playerMana);
            playerHalfMana = PlayerController.Instance.halfMana;
            writer.Write(playerHalfMana);
            playerManaOrbs = PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbs;
            writer.Write(playerManaOrbs);
            playerOrbShard = PlayerController.Instance.orbShard;
            writer.Write(playerOrbShard);
            playerOrb0fill = PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbsHandler.orbFills[0].fillAmount;
            writer.Write(playerOrb0fill);
            playerOrb1fill = PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbsHandler.orbFills[1].fillAmount;
            writer.Write(playerOrb1fill);
            playerOrb2fill = PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbsHandler.orbFills[2].fillAmount;
            writer.Write(playerOrb2fill);

            playerUnlockedWallJump = PlayerController.Instance.unlockedWallJump;
            writer.Write(playerUnlockedWallJump);
            playerUnlockedDash = PlayerController.Instance.unlockedDash;
            writer.Write(playerUnlockedDash);
            playerUnlockedVarJump = PlayerController.Instance.unlockedVarJump;
            writer.Write(playerUnlockedVarJump);

            playerUnlockedSideCast = PlayerController.Instance.unlockedSideCast;
            writer.Write(playerUnlockedSideCast);
            playerUnlockedUpCast = PlayerController.Instance.unlockedUpCast;
            writer.Write(playerUnlockedUpCast);
            playerUnlockedDownCast = PlayerController.Instance.unlockedDownCast;
            writer.Write(playerUnlockedDownCast);

            playerPosition = PlayerController.Instance.transform.position;
            writer.Write(playerPosition.x);
            writer.Write(playerPosition.y);

            lastScene = SceneManager.GetActiveScene().name;
            writer.Write(lastScene);
        }
    }

    public void LoadPlayerData()
    {
        if (File.Exists(Application.persistentDataPath + "/save.player.data"))
        {
            using (BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(File.OpenRead(Application.persistentDataPath + "/save.player.data")))
            {
                playerHealth = reader.ReadInt32();
                playerHeartShards = reader.ReadInt32();

                playerUnlockedVarJump = reader.ReadBoolean();

                playerUnlockedSideCast = reader.ReadBoolean();
                playerUnlockedUpCast = reader.ReadBoolean();
                playerUnlockedDownCast = reader.ReadBoolean();

                benchPos.x = reader.ReadSingle();
                benchPos.y = reader.ReadSingle();

                SceneManager.LoadScene(lastScene);

                SceneManager.LoadScene(benchSceneName);
                PlayerController.Instance.transform.position = benchPos;

                PlayerController.Instance.Mana = playerMana;
                PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbs = playerManaOrbs;
                PlayerController.Instance.orbShard = playerOrbShard;
                PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbsHandler.orbFills[0].fillAmount = playerOrb0fill;
                PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbsHandler.orbFills[1].fillAmount = playerOrb1fill;
                PlayerController.Instance.manaOrbsHandler.orbFills[2].fillAmount = playerOrb2fill;

                PlayerController.Instance.unlockedWallJump = playerUnlockedWallJump;
                PlayerController.Instance.unlockedDash = playerUnlockedDash;
                PlayerController.Instance.unlockedVarJump = playerUnlockedVarJump;

                PlayerController.Instance.unlockedSideCast = playerUnlockedSideCast;
                PlayerController.Instance.unlockedUpCast = playerUnlockedUpCast;
                PlayerController.Instance.unlockedDownCast = playerUnlockedDownCast;
            }
        }

Under SavePlayerData() you can comment out/remove the playerPosition & lastScene codes as you won’t need it for this purpose. While in your LoadPlayerDate() replace playerPosition codes with benchPos & lastScene codes to benchSceneName. Doing this will allow your player to load into the game with the correct health, mana and etc, while loading at the Bench position and scene you last saved in.

However, you will also need a way to save the data as the only codes saving it now is the unlocks, the shade and death.

In your SceneFader, try this:

public void CallFadeAndLoadScene(string _sceneToLoad)
    {
        SaveData.Instance.SavePlayerData();
        StartCoroutine(FadeAndLoadScene(FadeDirection.In, _sceneToLoad));
    }

Under CallFadeAndLoadScene(), add SaveData.Instance.SavePlayerData(); before starting the coroutine. This allows your player’s data to be saved upon entering any scene and main menu exit button.

However, I do not advise these method of loading the game. If the player were able to exit and re-enter the game by going back to the bench, this allows what is essentially a fast travel or get out of trouble mechanic for the player by just simply quitting the game. Or in another case it could accidentally reset the player’s progress.

If the code does not work, feel free to tell me as this is simply theory and I have not yet tested the code.
