I have a gameobject called weaponPrimary and one called weaponSecondary, so the player can have one out or both out at the same time. All the possible weapons are childed under both of them, having only one active according to the player's choice on the loadout menu. By pressing 1, weaponPrimary either activates or deactivates, and same for weaponSecondary with pressing 2. weaponPrimary/Secondary have a weaponmanager script that keeps track of which child should be active by assigning the child to the "equipped" variable. This is all working fine except for one thing: Whenever weaponPrimary/Secondary reactivates, ALL the children reactivate with it for a split-second and then disappear, leaving the equipped weapon active. This looks bad, as a large mass of weapons flicker on and off every time. I use SetActiveRecursively for deactivate for switching weaponPrimary/Secondary and weapons off, but I only reactivate the weaponPrimary/Secondary and the child that is set as equipped. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Here is the previously mentioned weaponmanager script on weaponPrimary/Secondary: var rifle : Transform; var pistol : Transform; var armlaser : Transform; var armemp : Transform; var equipped : Transform;

function Update () {
 if (rifle == equipped) {
 rifle.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(true);
 } else
 {
 rifle.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(false);
 }
 if (pistol == equipped) {
 pistol.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(true);
 } else
 {
 pistol.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(false);
 }
 if (armlaser == equipped) {
 armlaser.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(true);
 } else
 {
 armlaser.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(false);
 }
 if (armemp == equipped) {
 armemp.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(true);
 } else
 {
 armemp.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(false);
 }
}

and here is the excerpt of the script that determines the button pressing:

 if (primaryout)
        {
        primaryWeapon.gameObject.active = true;
        primaryWeapon.gameObject.GetComponent("weaponmanager").equipped.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(true);
        } else
        {
        primaryWeapon.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(false);
        }

        if (Input.GetButtonDown("Draw primary weapon"))
        {
         if (primaryout)
         {
         primaryout = false;
         alreadyCheckedprimary = true;
         }
         if (!primaryout && !alreadyCheckedprimary)
         {
         primaryout = true;
         }
        }

        if (secondaryout)
        {
        secondaryWeapon.gameObject.active = true;
        secondaryWeapon.gameObject.GetComponent("weaponmanager").equipped.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(true);
        } else
        {
        secondaryWeapon.gameObject.SetActiveRecursively(false);
        }

        if (Input.GetButtonDown("Draw secondary weapon"))
        {
         if (secondaryout)
         {
         secondaryout = false;
         alreadyCheckedsecondary = true;
         }
         if (!secondaryout && !alreadyCheckedsecondary)
         {
         secondaryout = true;
         }
        }
