Create HUD for a new player
« on: April 14, 2012, 10:23:31 AM »
hey,

lets say i want to spawn the player at runtime. The player prefab has some variables like Gameobject healthbar etc. I need to assign these values. How do i do that ?
Because i can only assign variables in the Hierarchy window, but i need them assign them in the project window (prefab).

You just assign it in the code that Instantiates the prefab.

I recommend having a script on the UI elements that watches something in the world, whether by having your instantiation script set up the references, or by having the UI script find what it's supposed to watch automatically (if you only have one player, this is easier).
