speed up the 2D endless runner game over time

Hello. ..I am creating a endless runner game in 2D ..i want my character to spped up 5 ms after every 180 seconds ..but i couldn't do it .. i dont know why but it my character does not speed up ...i am new to unity and scripting..please help me...

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class PlayerScript : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     public Vector2 speed = new Vector2(5, 5);
7.     private Vector2 movement;
8.     void Start () {
9.    
10.     }
11.    
12.     // Update is called once per frame
13.     void Update () {
14.         float inputX = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
15.         float inputY = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
16.         if (Time.realtimeSinceStartup /5 == 0) {
17.                         movement = new Vector2 (speed.x * inputX * 2, speed.y * inputY * 2);
18.                         Debug.Log("yes..itsworking");
19.                 } else {
20.             movement = new Vector2(speed.x * inputX,speed.y * inputY);
21.         }
22.     }
23.     void FixedUpdate()
24.     {
25.  
26.         rigidbody2D.velocity = movement;
27.     }
28. }
29.  

 

Well this is how I would do it in your case

Code (CSharp):

1. float elapsedSeconds = 0;
2.  
3. void Update(){
4. elapsedSeconds += time.deltaTime;
5. if(elapsedSeconds > 180){
6. elapsedSeconds = 0;
7. //Insert speed up code here
8.  
9. //End speed up code
10. }
11. }

 

Thank you very much for your reply but i still could not get it though ..i've write the code like this...can you help me out please...and thank you ...

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class PlayerScript : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     public Vector2 speed = new Vector2(5, 5);
7.     private Vector2 movement;
8.  
9.    
10.  
11.     void Start () {
12.    
13.     }
14.    
15.     // Update is called once per frame
16.     void Update () {
17.         float elapsedSeconds = 0;
18.         float inputX = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
19.         float inputY = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
20.         elapsedSeconds += Time.deltaTime;
21.         if(elapsedSeconds > 180){
22.             elapsedSeconds = 0;
23.             //Insert speed up code here
24.                 movement = new Vector2 (speed.x * inputX * 2, speed.y * inputY * 2);
25.                 Debug.Log("yes..itsworking");
26.  
27.         }
28.          else {
29.             movement = new Vector2(speed.x * inputX,speed.y * inputY);
30.         }
31.         //End speed up code
32.     }
33.     void FixedUpdate()
34.     {
35.  
36.         rigidbody2D.velocity = movement;
37.     }
38. }
39.  

 

Put "float elapsedSeconds = 0" under "private Vector2 movement"

 

you can use Invoke

Code (CSharp):

1. void Start() {
2.     //....
3.  
4.     // add this line
5.     SpeedUp();
6. }
7.  
8. void SpeedUp() {
9.     // speed += 5;
10.    Invoke ("SpeedUp", 180f);
11. }

 

How about using Coroutines?

 

Your problem there is you declare the variable elapsedSeconds in Update. So every single frame, elapsedSeconds is set to 0 again. Do this instead:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class PlayerScript : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     public Vector2 speed = new Vector2(5, 5);
7.     private Vector2 movement;
8.     float elapsedSeconds = 0;
9.  
10.  
11.  
12.     void Start () {
13.  
14.     }
15.  
16.     // Update is called once per frame
17.     void Update () {
18.         float inputX = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
19.         float inputY = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
20.         elapsedSeconds += Time.deltaTime;
21.         if(elapsedSeconds > 180){
22.             elapsedSeconds = 0;
23.             //Insert speed up code here
24.                 movement = new Vector2 (speed.x * inputX * 2, speed.y * inputY * 2);
25.                 Debug.Log("yes..itsworking");
26.  
27.         }
28.          else {
29.             movement = new Vector2(speed.x * inputX,speed.y * inputY);
30.         }
31.         //End speed up code
32.     }
33.     void FixedUpdate()
34.     {
35.  
36.         rigidbody2D.velocity = movement;
37.     }
38. }
39.  

 

Thank you ... Very Much ..Its working ...Finally ..
