I’m trying to do this with a slider. So far I’ve got a Boost.cs script with the following code. For testing purposes, I’ve just got ActivateBoost() hooked up to a UI button for now. The slider works properly for the first boost but then doesn’t for subsequent boosts. Gotta put a boolean in there somewhere so that it works properly. :slight_smile:

void Start()
{
    surfaceEffector = Ground.GetComponent<SurfaceEffector2D>();
    slider = boostSlider.GetComponent<Slider>();
}

void Update()
{
    if (isBoosting)
    {
        timeLeft = timeToWait;
        timeLeft -= Time.time;
        slider.value = timeLeft;
        print("The timeleft is " + timeLeft);
        if (timeLeft <= 0)
        {
            timeLeft = 0;
        }
    }
    if (!isBoosting)
    {
        timeLeft = 0;
    }
}

public void ActivateBoost()
{
    isBoosting = true;
    StartCoroutine(TurboBoost());
}

IEnumerator TurboBoost() 
{
    print("BOOSTING");
    surfaceEffector.speed = maxSpeed;
yield return new WaitForSeconds(timeToWait);
    isBoosting = false;
    surfaceEffector.speed = minSpeed;
}

}
