Game Development How to Make a Video Game Pickups Add Pickup Particles

Cant see prefab script...

I have coded as instructed....

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

public class FlyPickup : MonoBehaviour {

[SerializeField]
private GameObject pickupPrefab;

void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {

    // If the Collider other is tagged with "Player"...
    if (other.CompareTag ("Player")) {

        // ...add the pickup particles...
        Instantiate(pickupPrefab, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);

        Destroy (gameObject);

    }
}

} ....within FlyPickup.cs, saved, then saved the scene, but when I go the Fly object, there is no additional script. Could someone please help? And also, now my fly doesn't disappear, when I launch the game. Until I amended this script from the last lesson, the fly did disappear.

You can just drop the fly prefab in the hierarchy and then pick up your script an drag it "IN" the fly object. So you see at the INSPECTOR of the fly object , the script : FlyPickup attached. I'm at work right now, so I can't get my unity open to help you, but try this. Or post a screenshot for me so that I can help you better.

Thank you SO much Stéphane. That was worked! I was worried that I would have to start all over again! Thank you.
