C# Unity addition

[TheoWasTaken]

*To start this of I want to say I am completely new to programing. Been doing it for like 3-4 days.*

Im making a cookie clicker copy and I want to make as you press the cookie it gives you cookie (as a currency) and it gives me the messages:

error CS1547: Keyword `void' cannot be used in this context

error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `(', expecting `)', `,', `;', `[', or `='

 

 

then i also want it to display the current amount of cookies, any help on how to achieve that?

 

Scripts:

using UnityEngine;using System.Collections;public class Clickable : MonoBehaviour {    public int cookie;   	// Use this for initialization	void Start () {		}		// Update is called once per frame	void Update () {        void OnMouseDown();        cookie += 1;}}

Thanks

remove the word 'Update' and replace it with 'OnMouseDown' (and remove the void OnMouseDown(); in your update function now)
This will make it so that every time the mouse will be clicked down, this function will play, which will do the cookie += 1; command.
 
Your code should become this:

using UnityEngine;using System.Collections; public class Clickable : MonoBehaviour {     public int cookie;    	// Use this for initialization	void Start () {		}		void OnMouseDown(){        cookie += 1;         }}

 
Edit:
to display the amount of cookies make a function called 'OnGUI'. In this you will make a GUI.Label in which you can display the variable 'cookie'.
Like this:

void OnGUI ()     {        GUI.Label(new Rect(10, 10, 100, 20), "Amount of cookies is: " + cookies);          }

You've got a function within a function.

Scripts:    using UnityEngine;    using System.Collections;         public class Clickable : MonoBehaviour {             public int cookie;                	// Use this for initialization    	void Start () {    	    	}    	    	// Update is called once per frame    	void OnMouseDown () {             cookie += 1;             }    }

No problem. Good to hear my explanation was understandable.
