Question

I want to live a GameObject for some seconds before destroy it.I saw the code by c# like this in documentation: IEnumerator Awake() { print(Time.time); yield return new WaitForSeconds(5); print(Time.time); } how to use this code? If I put it in my code like this: void update(){ ...... Awake(); ...... } It is not called.Noting happen!

If I put it like this void update(){ ..... yield return new WaitForSeconds(5); ...... } There is a error like this : error CS1624: The body of demo.Update()' cannot be an iterator block becausevoid' is not an iterator interface type

If I put it like this: void update(){ ..... yield new WaitForSeconds(5); ...... } There is a red line .

How to use this WaitForSeconds?Thanks！

You could queue the animation to start in 5 seconds. In Javascript, yield is actually really easy too:

function DieSoonThenExplode()
{
    yield WaitForSeconds(5);
    otherObject.animation.Play("explosion");
    Destroy(gameObject);
}

The C# isn't much difference, but if you're struggling with it, I'd suggest using Javascript.
