Instead of displaying all print messages at once when the game starts, I want the user to receive new messages by pressing KeyCode.Space.
Observed
When KeyCode.Space is pressed all the messages appear at once.
Desired
With every GetKeyDown (KeyCode.Space) by the user, a new message to appear.
Steps to reproduce
create a list of print messages which to be displayed when a specific key is pressed
Relevant information
Unity 4.7.2f1
The Code:

Steps tried already
- using if statements
- using if else statements
- using variables
- using strings

the problem is that when you use many ifs like you have done, it will pass true to all of them at the same time, i think that a better approach would be to put a controller to the message that will be displayed such as:
void MsgController ()
{
switch (message)
{
case 0: print (“x”);break;
case 1: print (“x2”); break;
case2: print (“x3”); breal;
etc…
}
}
void Update()
{
if (Input.GetKeyDown (KeyCode.Space) && message <= /* number of cases */)
{
MsgController();
message++
}
else if (Input.GetKeyDown (KeyCode.Space) && message > /* number of cases */)
{
// put something here to continue your game or to control the message number in order to choose what will be displayed to the player.
}
}
haven’t tried it, but it might work =x let me know
