How to make Enemy FLIP and ATTACK in Unity2D?

I was following a tutorial for creating an enemy in Unity, but they didn't teach how to flip the enemy in case the Player goes to the other side of the map, oppose to where the enemy is.
So I tried to increase the raycast area, so when the Player collides with it from behind, the enemy will know that it has to flip. But something isn't working, cause it goes fine to the Player when it's facing the left side of the map, but once it flips, it totally stops working, and I can't figure it out why.
Anyone have any idea what should I do?
Here is my code:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class Skeleton : MonoBehaviour
{
#region Public Variables
public Transform rayCast;
public LayerMask raycastMask;
public GameObject target;
public float rayCastLength;
public float attackDistance; //Mininum distance to attack
public float moveSpeed;
public float timer; // Cooldown b/w attacks
public bool inRange; //check if the player is near
#endregion
#region Private Variables
private RaycastHit2D hit;
private Animator anim;
private float distance; //Distance b/w enemy and player
public bool attackMode;
private float intTimer;
#endregion
void Awake() {
intTimer = timer;
anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
}
void Update() {
if (inRange)
{
hit = Physics2D.Raycast(rayCast.position, Vector2.left, rayCastLength, raycastMask);
}
//When the player is detected
if(hit.collider != null)
{
EnemyLogic();
}
// If it's not inside the raycast
else if(hit.collider == null)
{
inRange = false;
}
// If the player leaves the range
if (inRange == false)
{
anim.SetBool("canWalk", false);
StopAttack();
anim.SetInteger("Idle", 0);
}
}
void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D col)
{
if(col.gameObject.tag == "Player")
{
target = col.gameObject;
inRange = true;
Flip();
}
}
void EnemyLogic()
{
distance = Vector2.Distance(transform.position, target.transform.position);
if(distance > attackDistance)
{
Move();
StopAttack();
}
else if(attackDistance >= distance)
{
Attack();
}
}
void Move()
{
anim.SetInteger("Idle", 1);
anim.SetBool("canWalk", true);
if (!anim.GetCurrentAnimatorStateInfo(0).IsName("attack"))
{
Vector2 targetPosition = new Vector2(target.transform.position.x, transform.position.y);
transform.position = Vector2.MoveTowards(transform.position, targetPosition, moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
}
}
void Attack()
{
timer = intTimer; //reset timer
attackMode = true;
anim.SetInteger("Idle", 1);
anim.SetBool("canWalk", false);
anim.SetBool("Attack", true);
}
void StopAttack()
{
attackMode = false;
anim.SetBool("Attack", false);
}
// Detects if the player is on the other side
void Flip()
{
Vector3 rotation = transform.eulerAngles;
if(target.transform.position.x < transform.position.x)
{
rotation.y = 180f;
}
else
{
rotation.y = 0f;
}
transform.eulerAngles = rotation;
}
}

You can flip the enemy using localScale. Do this:
if (Player.transform.position.x < this.transform.position.x)
{
transform.localScale = new Vector3(-1, 1, 1);
}else
{
transform.localScale = new Vector3(1, 1, 1);
}
This detects whenever the player's x position is greater or lower than the enemy and flips the whole object.

The game is not restarting after the player dies

I'm making this flappy bird replica but instead of a bird it's a rocket.
The controlls are different however the idea is the same.
I have setup a GameManager script:
using UnityEngine;
public class GameManager : MonoBehaviour
{
// Script Refrences
public BarrierSpawnner spawnner;
public MainMen menu;
public MoveLeft moveLeft;
public rockeyMovement movement;
void Start()
{
spawnner.StartedGame = false;
movement.dead = false;
spawnner.StartedGame = false;
movement.rend.enabled = true;
}
void Update()
{
if (spawnner.StartedGame)
{
menu.menuOn = false;
}
if (movement.dead == true)
{
spawnner.StartedGame = false;
}
if (spawnner.StartedGame == false)
{
menu.menuOn = true;
}
}
}
And a Movement Script:
using UnityEngine;
public class rockeyMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
// Variables
private float gravity;
private Vector2 startPos;
public bool dead;
// Refrences
public Rigidbody2D rb;
public BarrierSpawnner spawnner;
public Renderer rend;
public MainMen menStart;
public static rockeyMovement Instance { get; private set; }
void Start()
{
Instance = this;
startPos = transform.position;
rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
gravity = rb.gravityScale;
rb.gravityScale = 0;
rend = GetComponent<Renderer>();
}
void OnCollisionStay2D(Collision2D collision)
{
dead = true;
gravity = rb.gravityScale;
rb.gravityScale = 0;
startPos = transform.position;
}
void Update()
{
if (spawnner.StartedGame)
{
rb.gravityScale = 2;
}
if (spawnner.StartedGame == false)
{
transform.position = new Vector2(0, 0);
}
Vector2 vel = rb.velocity;
float ang = Mathf.Atan2(vel.y, 10) * Mathf.Rad2Deg;
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3(0, 0, ang - 90f));
if (Input.GetButton("Jump"))
{
rb.AddForce(Vector2.up * gravity * Time.deltaTime * 1000f);
}
}
}
As well as a MenuScript:
using UnityEngine;
public class MainMen : MonoBehaviour
{
public BarrierSpawnner spawnner;
public GameObject CanvasObject;
public bool menuOn;
void Update()
{
if (menuOn)
{
CanvasObject.GetComponent<Canvas> ().enabled = true;
}
}
public void Go()
{
spawnner.StartedGame = true;
CanvasObject.GetComponent<Canvas> ().enabled = false;
}
}
The game starts out normally in the correct way, the problems pop up the moment the player dies. When the player comes in contact with the obstacles I have the script set a bool to true "dead". And when "dead" is true the menu pops back again however, I you cannot interact with it and the page stays like that.
How do I fix this issue?
Is my logic right?
If not, where did I go wrong?

Don't disable Canvas component. Instead, create a panel with buttons on it and activate this panel when needed. Keep it deactivated otherwise.

Unity c# make player move as a projectile after colliding with other gameObjects

When shooting a bullet or making a bomb explode, the player doesn't move as a projectile. Instead, they just move an unusually little distance. The players move as expected - a projectile, after reassigning groundCheck to "none", but the players themselves can't be moved any more. When colliding with a bullet or is in the range of a bomb, how can I change the code so that the player can move as a projectile without assigning groundCheck to "none" ?
Code of player:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class MoveWASDPlayer1 : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 5;
public float jumpForce = 10;
private float moveInput;

public Transform groundCheck;
public float checkRadius = 0.5f;

private int extraJumps;
public int extraJumpsValue = 1;

moveInput = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal1");
rb.velocity = new Vector2(moveInput * speed, rb.velocity.y);

{
Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision(3, 6, true);
Invoke("StopCollidingIntoGround", 0.25f);
}
}
void CheckJumps()
{
isGrounded = Physics2D.OverlapCircle(groundCheck.position, checkRadius, whatIsGround);
if (isGrounded == true)
{

if (Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.Z))
{
this.gameObject.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>().sprite = Player1idle;
}
}
IEnumerator Fire()
{
PistolBulletPos = transform.position;
if (remainingBullet < 1)
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(2);
remainingBullet = 10;
}
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Z) && remainingBullet > 0)
{
if (facingRight)
{

yield return new WaitForSeconds(fireRate);
}
}
}
}
Code of bomb:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class Bomb : MonoBehaviour
{
Collider2D[] inExplosionRadius = null;
[SerializeField] private float ExplosionForceMulti = 5;
[SerializeField] private float ExplosionRadius = 5;
private void Update()

if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.X))
{

}
}
void Explode()
{
inExplosionRadius = Physics2D.OverlapCircleAll(transform.position, ExplosionRadius);
foreach(Collider2D o in inExplosionRadius)
{
Rigidbody2D o_rigidbody = o.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
if (o_rigidbody != null)
{
Vector2 distanceVector = o.transform.position - transform.position;
if(distanceVector.magnitude > 0)
{
float explosionForce = ExplosionForceMulti / distanceVector.magnitude;
o_rigidbody.AddForce(distanceVector.normalized * explosionForce);
}
}
}
}
private void OnDrawGizmos()
{
Gizmos.DrawWireSphere(transform.position, ExplosionRadius);
}
}
Code of bullet:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class PistolBullet : MonoBehaviour
{
public float velX = 5f;
float velY = 0f;
Rigidbody2D rb;
Collider2D[] inShootRadius = null;
[SerializeField] public float ShootForceMulti = 5;
[SerializeField] public float ShootRadius = 5;
private void Start()
{
rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
}
private void Update()
{
rb.velocity = new Vector2(velX, velY);
Destroy(gameObject, 3f);
Shoot();
}
public void Shoot()
{
inShootRadius = Physics2D.OverlapCircleAll(transform.position, ShootRadius);
foreach (Collider2D o in inShootRadius)
{
Rigidbody2D o_rigidbody = o.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
if (o_rigidbody != null)
{
Vector2 distanceVector = o.transform.position - transform.position;
if (distanceVector.magnitude > 0)
{
float explosionForce = ShootForceMulti / distanceVector.magnitude;
o_rigidbody.AddForce(distanceVector.normalized * explosionForce);
}
}
}
}
private void OnCollisionEnter(Collision collision)
{
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}

If I understand correctly: When getting hit by a bullet or explosion the player is not flung as expected?
I would argue this is the culprit: rb.velocity = new Vector2(moveInput * speed, rb.velocity.y); as you are overriding the player velocity every frame without taking in account the current velocity, unless moveInput has that calculated into.
As to why it works when GroundCheck is unassigned, because the script stops executing due to the missing reference beforehand and the Rigidbody will only be modified from the other scripts.

Why the audio clip never heard when playing?

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.Events;
using Whilefun.FPEKit;
public class RoboSphereWindowBreakInteraction : MonoBehaviour
{
public Transform target;
public InteractableObjects interactableObjects;
public AudioClip audioClip;
public float speed;
private bool hasStarted = false;
private Animator anim;
void Update()
{
if ((Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.B) || (hasStarted == true)))
{
float step = speed * Time.deltaTime; // calculate distance to move
transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target.position, step);
hasStarted = true;
}
}
private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.gameObject.name == "Square 1")
{
GetComponent<Rigidbody>().isKinematic = false;
hasStarted = false;
Destroy(GameObject.Find("Wall_Window_Long_03"));
}
}
public void ActivateRoboSphere()
{
foreach(Transform child in transform)
{
if(child.name == "Camera")
{
RepositionCamera(child);
}
}
anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
anim.enabled = true;
if (!anim.GetBool("Open_Anim"))
{
anim.SetBool("Open_Anim", true);
StartCoroutine(PlayAudio());
}
else
{
//anim.SetBool("Open_Anim", false);
}
}
private void RepositionCamera(Transform camera)
{
var Eyes = GameObject.Find("eyeDome");
camera.position = Eyes.transform.position + Eyes.transform.forward;
camera.LookAt(Eyes.transform);
camera.GetComponent<Camera>().enabled = true;
}
IEnumerator PlayAudio()
{
AudioSource audio = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
audio.Play();
yield return new WaitForSeconds(audio.clip.length);
audio.clip = audioClip;
audio.Play();
}
}
It's getting inside the PlayAudio but the sound is not heard.
The audio source component screenshot settings :

The only problem I see with this code is that initially, your audio source's clip isn't set to anything. Thus will result in a null ref exception on this line:
yield return new WaitForSeconds(audio.clip.length);
Add a null check and you should be good to go
if (audioSource.clip != null)
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(audioSource.clip.length);
}

Jump/Throw Coding or Animation Issues

The Setup
I have a basketball player with an animator and 5 assigned animations to that animator as followed:
PlayerIdle
PlayerWalk
PlayerJump
PlayerBend
PlayerShoot
Setup_FruitHoops
Player Animation Window with Parameters
The Problem
In PlayMode, the player is able to move and jump successfully. The issue comes when the player attempts to grab the apple that is on the ground. The desired game design that I wanted was for the player to bend over and grab the apple by pressing the G key and then press G again to throw the apple towards the hoop to score a point. However, when I run it and after I first press G, the player can no longer jump, grab, or throw. The below section is the code for PlayerMovement and GrabberScript. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
