using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.UI;


public class Timer : MonoBehaviour
{
public string LevelToLoad;
private float timer = 10f;
private Text timerSeconds;


// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
timerSeconds = GetComponent<Text>();
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
timer -= Time.deltaTime;
timerSeconds.text = timer.ToString("f2");
if (timer <= 0)
{

}

}
}

Assets/scripts/Timer1.cs(8, 9): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `Text' could not be found. Are you missing `UnityEngine.UI' using directive?

Can you help me make a thing where i can set up a script where an npc would do something if you go into his fov with a weapon within 1 second, and not if u have like an id card/disguise?

[redghost]

Thanks this put me on the right track since the update this is obsolete and SceneManger.LoadScene should be used. My code looks like this:
public void changeSceneTo(int changeMyScene){
SceneManger.LoadScene();
}

In my update method

If time up...

changeMyScene (int that relates to the scene);


You can find the int by looking in the build settings and 'Add Open Scenes'. Hope this helps.

what is written after timer in the void update function?
