Utilizing the idea of object pooling, and storing said objects in a list.
As seen in here: [Object Pooling][1]
I would like to run a check on that list to see if there are any objects active. I know you can utilize GameObject.activeInHierarchy on singular objects such as this Spawn() code:
List objectQueue;
void Spawn () {
for (int i = 0; i < objectQueue.Count; i++) {
if(!objectQueue[i].activeInHierarchy)
{
DetermineSpawnLocation(objectQueue[i]); //Decide where to spawn
objectQueue[i].SetActive(true); //object spawning
break;
}
}
}
I would like to do this check in a separate function as this Spawn code is called after some checks are made, and one of the checks I need to add is 'if there are any active shapes, wait for the count to be 0' (no active shapes in scene) before continuing. I was considering a foreach or for loop and manually counting active objects, but it seems there should be a better way.
If this question has be answered before please link it and reprimand me properly. Apologies if the answer is crazy simple.
**TL;DR: How to count number of active objects within a list in simplest way possible.**
